I'm thinking that girls are more difficult to housetrain than
boys. Boy puppies seem to give more indication. Girls quickly
squat'n'pee.


The only accidents we ever have are poop! She holds her urine very
well, and always pees when asked when I take her out. Her pooping is a
bit different, because of her privacy thing. So I have found a poop
behind a piece of furniture. She poops very fast, so a trot down the
hall to get her goose and back again, could result in a little pile,
with the speed of light.

We have another issue though. Marcie carries her blanket around and
chews on the tag. This morning, she was doing just that, when I
realized that the Dyson cord was under the blanket and was the object of
the teeth.

The Dyson is now off at the shop getting a new cord. That's what I get
for sitting right next to her, looking right at her, and assuming things
were status quo.

The cord was not plugged in and we have some Bitter Apple gel that we'll
do some setups with, as well as treat any cord in the bedroom prior to
2/1.

Oh yeah - her goose has a little spot of blood on it. 16 weeks old
today, I believe we are experiencing the first tooth loss - wahoo!
