Thanks! I thought that was the reason, he seems to pick it up & be proud of it. I find it in his bed, and where he usually sits to eat. Wierd, I do hope he grows out of it. He doesn't seem to be eating it so I'm not worried about that right now. I try to get him to go to the bathroom before I go to work, but we haven't gotten to that command yet (we are newbies, 2 weeks today!), we start puppy class in 2 weeks!

If an older dog starts doing it out of the blue with no history of it, it is usually because they are starting to develop control problems and can't control where they go and are ashamed, so they try to hide the evidence. But for pups.....they do it because they want to. > Marsha' > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: joan1wilcox > To: [email protected] > Sent: Sunday, February 25, 2007 9:00 PM > Subject: [Chihuahuas] moving poo around? > > > Hi!
