Well if she was a kennel dog, I assume she doesn't mind going potty in her kennel? Is this right? We've finally just gotten our bulldog pup almost completely potty trained (except at night). She doesn't mind going in her kennel at all. And she would walk around and hide in the house to potty. Of course I couldn't get on to her if I didn't see her do it. A friend of mine suggested putting her on a leash in the house (move her with you to which ever room you will be in). Most dogs will not potty in front of you because they know it's unacceptable. That's why Stella would go hide to do it. Now that she's had practice "holding it", she is trying to hold it. It's actually worked very well for us. Now I need to figure out what to do with her at night. I keep her in a kennel at night and when we are gone (which is not much since I'm a SAHM) so that she doesn't mess anything up. And of course she potties in her kennel every night. But she's doing great in the day time. I'm now able to let her run around some again in the house. You can buy the long (10ft) teather leads at almost any pet store. Good luck! ~Lacey
