Hi, Nacho was 8 weeks old when I got him. The owner said he was potty trained, but he came to a new home. What I did was I took him outside after he ate, and every 2 hours. I would say "Okay let's go OUTSIDE" and take him out. He got to know what outside meant. If he did something in the house, I would show it too him and tell him "you do this OUTSIDE" and take him out..Nacho was trained in 2 weeks, and has never done anything in the house since and he is 5 years old now. I'm proud of my baby...Patricia fm KS --- In [email protected] <mailto:Chihuahuas%40yahoogroups.com> , Raven <iceponygoddess@...> wrote: > > >> He's about 7-8 months old.
