Emma has more freedom now. Sheā€™s 5 1/2 months and has been considerably slower in her crate training than Wilson was (he was 100% trained at 4 months). But considering Iā€™m gone 10 hours during the work week sheā€™s doing great. I shrunk her day crate down two weeks ago and she stopped pooping but was potting around the 4 pm hour (I have a home monitoring system so I know when she goes). This week she went 4 straight days from 7-5:15 with no crate mishaps so I enlarged her crate today. :up: I also took away her piddle pads and gave her crate bed back. Sheā€™s been shredding her piddle pad with her shark teeth - Iā€™m hoping sheā€™s telling me she has her big girl pants on now. :up: She takes herself out the doggie door to potty when weā€™re home. :).

Right now I keep her in a separate crate but as soon as sheā€™s gets spayed and has no more piddles Iā€™ll leave her with Wilson during the day. Not sure if heā€™ll like that, lol.

Iā€™m very proud of her. :luv:

Yay for Emma!!! Karly is so much harder to train than Nigel. I'll take them out and he'll take care of business - she might pee but then she'll wait to poop when we get back in the house...I'm like oh man!!! lol I continue to be patient though and just accept that she's a diva.

Yay! Very proud of you Emma! Hopefully you do as well with the extra space in your crate. 10 hours is a very long time!

:happydance: What a good pup! It took Aubrey a long time to get the hang of potty training, but our patience paid off. She deserves lots of loves for being such a good girl!

Our crates are pretty big now, 3'x4' for Wilson and same for Emma. Soon they'll be able to share. :)

So much for day 5 but I'm still happy at 4 days. :up:
