My moms chi is almost 2 and he is impossible. She can leave him out for 2 hours
and he will come in and go on the floor. I stayed with them this summer when my
AC went out. I would let him out with my 6 chis and he still came in and went
on the floor. She has tried crating him, walking on the leash, taking him out
every hour. Nothing works! Any advice?
