I finally trained my people! I've lived with them for the last seven months and in the beginning, they had no idea when I needed to go out. I know that people think dogs need to "Facebook" (aka "make a poo") outside, and I'm happy to comply. We actually prefer it.
When they first got me, I would stare intently at them when I needed to go out and Facebook, but they ignored me. So I left little presents for them on the carpet. I don't think they liked it, but hey - not my fault!
Lately, they finally started to understand that when I gaze lovingly into their eyes without breaking eye contact, I NEED TO GO OUT!! They take me out and I get to Facebook to my heart's content! It's glorious!!!
Took them about 7 months to figure it out. You people are as stupid as a cat! If your dog is leaving you presents on your carpet, it just means you are a slow learner. Don't blame the dog. We'd rather Facebook outside. Promise :-)
