You guys might remember when I posted about my friend and her potty training issues. Thanks for all the help I got – it seemed like for a while things were going nicely, she had Milton (the pup) on a regular schedule, and he was doing much, much better with not going potty in the house. Things were taking a complete turn-around, or so it seemed.
However, a few members of her family do not get the fact that to crate train a dog it canâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t be let out at random to run around the house. It happens more often than she can control, and as a result Milton would pee/poop on the floor. No one likes this, but it seems like they donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t understand that itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s not Amanda or Miltonâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s fault, itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s theirs for letting him out when theyâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]re not allowed to.
Before this gets to be a ramble about puppy-care, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m going to skip what I was asking about. I know if I kept Milton here at my house to potty train him here I could do it since nobody could let him out. Would this be alright to do? Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m not sure if heâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]d be potty trained when I gave him back to her, how long Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]d have to keep him here to finish the training (or at least get a good start on it), or if in general this wouldnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t be a good idea and she should continue potty training him at her house. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]d really like to take him as I love him as much as she does and would like to try leash training/getting him to heel him at the same time.
So, what are your thoughts on the situation? Itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s all okayed with my parents, and my friend said if heâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s not doing better by the end of this week I could take him.
