little Hobo stopped by 3 weeks ago, no one called on the found puppy add and I sort of like him..
clipped off the 2lbs of natty wirey hair he had was beyond a brush, will keep him shorthaired..Doc said part Cairn/Schnnauser... 19lbs of stubbborn is what he mostly is..but catching on, pretty smart little mutt. CHEF Magee(AKA PROBIE)

if he doesnt get this potty outside thing down pretty quick hes going on the midnite train...
Stubborn as hell, ground too wet, grass too hi, will HOLD IT FOR DAYS and mess inthe house come inside from 2 hours outside,,and pees and KNOWS he isnt supposed to, acts like it as soon as he is called on it, he knows.. anyways, raised 5 kids and 6 dogs to adulthood, this one will make it as well,,,,,but I know why OLD GUYS dont have kids, we would probably sell them or eat them..

come inside from 2 hours outside,,and pees and KNOWS he isnt supposed to, acts like it as soon as he is called on it, he knows.. Sounds like a typical terrier, he'll get it but it'll take some work:) |

Give him more treats after he pee's outside. |

Had a Schnauzer for years we got from the pound –– wearing what sounds like the same coat. Must have shopped in the same store?
Most of 'em get it eventually. The street rats have a little harder time adjusting to politely keeping their business outside, but will eventually give in and do the right thing. Hang in there! |

welll the little man has made it 9 days with out indoor incedents..hopefully he is getting there, still trying to get him to signal a bit like standing at the door, or scratching or something..he isnt getting it, but I am getting him out consistantly at this point..we shall see

We had a stray we named Steve. We tried to make him and indoor dog. But he ate the molding around the door and front window. Steve would come inside when it was cold and sleep most of the night. If he needed to wake one of us up to go outside, he would lick or chew on our toes till we got up. He did earn his keep when the toilet tank busted.
Then we didn't see him for a few weeks and someone told us that the pound picked him up. So, by the time we had heard about it, there wasn't anything we could do. Because we don't know which dog pound picked him up. He was a sweet dog. i wish he would have let us train him to be an indoor dog. But, what can ya do. Your new baby looks very sweet. Mona |

Why would we microchip a stray dog? I've heard they cause cancer in your pets, especially full bred dogs. Mona |
