chibi is starting to drive us up the wall with the "ring the bell", go outside, sniff ground, chew on random crap from the yard, no pee, no poop. i'm thinking all the extra windy-ness (yes, i can make up words) has blown all kinds of new scents and aromas into the yard (in addition to all the crap from our bushes, trees, and the neighbor's bushes and trees.
need to work on some new techniques to deal with sumo's "nipping-ness"...i guess since i'm japanese it's ok to note the racial doggie breed irony of a japanese (nippon-ese) dog, having a "nipping" problem, kind of a "nip" dog :) HAHAHAHA...ok, fine, it's only funny to me then!
i realized how much better sumo is getting with his pee/poop training. he hasn't been ringing the bell each time, but he's been holding it better, and at least walking to the door and barking when he needs to go out. *knocks on every piece of wood around* he's been accident free for the last week or so (a little over a month into being with us -- not bad).
strange side effect of acclimating sumo to his harness -- when he's wearing it (after he throws his run around and try to rub it off fit), he is much more calm.
