Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

So I've been worried that Snow will not alert me when she has to go pee. I did some googling and found bell training which led me to buy the poochie bell. Super cute! I got a chocolate poochie bell with "Snow" in light blue thread going vertical on it.

I read and bookmarked several articles on it, but wondering if anyone has tried this with their dogs? I'd love some advice to mull over while I'm waiting for them to arrive.

Several of us have, check out this thread:

Consistency is your big thing. We had to help Ghost ring the bell at first, but we always made her ring it every time we went outside. It took a couple of weeks, but she got the idea that she needed to ring to go out. The big thing is once she rings it, you have to take her out immediately to reinforce it.

On the one hand, you become a fierce defender of the ways in which your little one is perfectly ordinary — all the things he or she can do that are just like what everybody else does. And yet, you never lose sight of how absolutely extraordinary that very ordinariness is, how difficult, remarkable and rewarding that fight to be 'just like everybody else' has been."  -Gwen Cooper, "Homer's Odyssey"

Kya rings the bells as well. It took about 3 weeks for her to fully understand the concept, but she got it. We no longer have the bells because we have a doggie door, but when we go to my sister's house, she still remembers to ring it Smile



Just be careful, because my sister taught her boxer to ring the bell, and she will ring it just for the hell of going outside LOL!
