tito is adorable!
My new best mate! & a potty training Q
A couple of pics of my little mate Tito.
He's 10 weeks old and his potty training is coming along ok. Just one problem.... His aim is someway off when aiming for the paper! he is getting the idea of going to the paper by the door, but more often than not will completely miss. Is this normal? He walks out of his crate or from playing and to the back door where the paper is, does his buissness then comes back. He gets lots of praise/treats when he does it right and has also started circling the back door sometimes when he wants to go out (where he also will go and gets even more praise).
I've only had him one week and in that time he has learned the above plus to sit and (somtimes!) give his paw, so I know he is responsive to training and the treats - Could he just have an aim like his dads after a few to many beers??!!

Hello, i'm always chuffed when a fellow U.K-ey joins the forum. Welcome on board! Tito is so cute 
! And as for the peeing, Voltaire also still pees on his feet at age 3 years :roll: . Sometimes they'll start, get distracted and move on even if they haven't finished - get used to it :lol:
p.s. I think Tito's already really clever to be going on the paper at 10 weeks even if he misses. :wink:

Aww, welcome to you and your little cutie I'm sure his aim will improve with time, really good that he's getting the idea of going to the door already!

Thanks for the reassurance. Think I might give the bell method a go, He's a clever pup so I don't see why he shouldn't catch on quickly. :emtthumbs:
