we had the ultimate in success with rocky, our pitbull, who can now go for 12-14 hours with no potty mistakes. obviously she will not be that olympic of a bladder holder, but we will work with her!
anyway, we are stubbornly strong willed, and fully realize the fact that the more we do now, the better off we will be in a year or so. we have her in a crate already, potty only twice last night 1 and 3, and then she slept until 7:45 this morning, so we were VERY impressed. certainly no pattern as its only day/night 1 however we GET IT. we are strict disciplinarians when it comes to rocky and she will be no different. i cannot stress enough to anyone the imperativeness of that potty schedule off the bat, and happiness in the time thereafter :) she cried and coughed from kennel cough right now :( for a while last night but slept well. she is at the vet now, and i miss her already as she came to visit me at work for an hour this morning. snuggle bug, HOLY SHIT is she. already you can tell. and VERY clingy with us. they told us that pitbulls were one owner dogs, and he is just as happy with his mother as he is with me so we are probably going to do the same with her... funny tho, the juxtaposition of the pit and the iggy :) thank you erika... this is exciting!!!! tw On 1/17/06, Erika L.
