Thanks for your insightful comment! 13 years??? I think it would overwhelm me if I had to do this even for just 13 months!!!
I think we are unwittingly moving towards the regular schedule you suggested, but instead of twice a day we are still going out ... well, whenever I notice that he starts to behave like he's looking for a potty spot. But that tends to happen at almost regular times.
With our last dog, who was already trained when we adopted her, it was a twice a day thing, not even at the exact same times, just once in the morning, once in the evening. I hope eventually we can get to something like that with Bandido too.
That's great news, they are creatures of routines and schedules, even if it's not a specific time.
And well, I understand that in other countries, there are training schools for puppies, and they give them a diploma and everything. My brother took his in Colombia and they trained him to ask to pee and go out. I hope you progress as you go with your furry one, greetings! 💕
By the way, I love Bandido's blog. 😍
Thanks!
Yes, we also have dog schools here, and even though I have been wanting to train him myself, relying on the infinite videos available on the subject, if things don't work out, I will enroll him (that is us!) in one. But for now he's still a puppy, which gives him some leeway. And I can't say he's not making any progress either.
