8 mo old Bosco only eliminates in the back yard and the dog park on ocassion.  I take him on 3 mile walks 3x per week.  Nothing happens.  Weve had him since he's been 4 mo.  Any suggestions on how to break this?

Some dogs will only go in their yard.  They are just that way.  I know alot of people on this site has mentioned that.
Gaby will only have BM in our yard as well, but she will pee in other places I take her to.... I do bring a bag with me when we go into town for walks but haven't used it yet :lol:
Any reason you want to break this habit? If he absolutely has to go he will at another place, but obviously he just feels more comfortable pottying in his yard.

Ditto!??  :D I was wondering the same thing! I think most people wished their dogs would ONLY go in the backyard!  :lol:

Odin is pretty much the same way... ONLY in the yard unless we're out walking or some place and he just HAS TO GO.... MUST. You can tell to that he's not happy about it either. I love it! I bring bags anyway... just in case but we've had him since he was 8 wks old... now a year old and he's only done this twice.
Must be a boxer trait because Donner only poops in his yard as well. Saves me from having to pick up poop out of somebody elses yard. :D

my dogs will poop anywhere...not picky all..Bo's fave place is the petstore...talk about embarrassing
i think it would be great if the girls would only poop in our yard!! they have no issues going anywhere....even the petstore :lol:
Jessie will go anywhere... But i notice she would rather go on grass then on concrete.  When it snowed on thursday night into friday here, we went out for a walk and she wouldnt go... so i brought her in and put her in the crate.  I shoveled and went to the store...About an hour and a half later i took her out again and she went almost immediately.   I think she just couldnt hold it anymore.. by the way not to be gross... but she took the biggest crap ive ever seen in my life! LOL!
We took Samson last week to our friends house that has 3 boxers for a little fun and he didn't poop or pee the entire time we were there( about an hour and a half) I kept walking him out in there yard to get him to pee cause I knew he had too but he just whined.  When we got home he made a bee line for the backyard and peed like a racehorse.lol
