Potty Training by Marisa

Murphy has been good about potty-training,at first it was just, He goes on the floor we run him outside he does more. In the first few days of having him I took Murphy out a lot. Now I don't really participate in taking him out. Thanks to Mom And Meghan he is actually learning! Once, he went at the back door. When I do take him out, I carry him to the backyard put him down in the grass and say potty, potty, potty to get him to go. After Murphy is done it is hard to get him in the house. Most of the time just walking away works. The last time I took him out he walked right back to me. Dad built a pen so that we don't have to chase Murphy all over the yard.

When you potty train a puppy it is a lot of work. You have to follow him around all the time and make sure you catch him in the act. This sounds easier then it really is. Murphy is doing pretty good at it he doesn't have many accidents.


(Mom's note........ I just read this.... and I can assure you.... Marisa WILL be participating a LOT more in helping Murphy become potty trained....)
