Boomer is almost 8 months and we got him at 10 weeks old. We crate trained and he started sleeping through the night without accidents relatively quickly. He is very good about going outside first thing in the morning and again for a quick potty break before I leave for work. He rarely has accidents in the cage during the day. We never scold him for an accident and focus on positive reinforcement.
However....he still occassionally has accidents. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif He's almost 8 months...why?!?!?! I would say its an average of twice a week. Tonight we took him out and he did his business and then an hour later crapped and peed on the floor. :angryfire:
Any suggestions/tips? I really want to get another puppy next summer but I don't know if housebreaking takes THIS long.
