if you want to go out, ring the bell
« on: July 16, 2010, 03:39:19 PM »

 dont know if someone in here told me to do this, or if it was someplace else.

background: if bear had to to out and i was in the kitchen i would notice him go to the door, thats great. however, if i wasnt in the kitchen... i think he might of gone to the door, but thats a guess cuz he did it when i was there, however, being in the other room you can't see it, so he would go on the floor.. this got tiring especially at his age, he's six months now.

so i got 2 cow bells, put them on twine and put them on the door handle and it took him less than 1 week to learn to rind them when he wants to go out. yah!!! its great! i love it.

so here he is, he didn't ring them loud the first time, so i stood there until he rang them again, and when he did, it was louder which is what because if i'm in the other room, it needs to be a loud jingle..

please don't look at the nasty floor, door frame.. etc... this kitchen needs to be torn apart and redone but i can't afford it, and i never fixed the door frame good from when i got burglarized many years ago.. so i'm embarrassed at how nasty it looks.

That is just so cool.
I have been thinking of trying it with my pup.
It's hard to know what he wants sometimes, though we are all getting better at understanding each other.
Sometimes he just wants to go out side to play.
If he just wants to play in the house he'll bring a toy too me. But this wanting to go potty and just wanting to go play out side is still a little unclear.
Then he's only 3 months yet  ;)
