Potty Training

I feel like I have been thrust into the world of having a terrible two year old...except my two year old is furry, whiney, and craps on the floor. This durn puppy is probably the cutest thing I have ever owned, yet also the most frustrating. She has entered the world of "terrible twos" for puppies and she is only 13 weeks old. She absolutely does not understand how to crap outside. Peeing outside? No problemo. Pooing outside? Absolutely no way no how. Oh and if its cold or windy or snowy, you might as well just give up now. I have never met a more stubborn puppy in my life. She is a mini-Mariah Carey (subtract the boobs). Diva of all divas. I have been forced to research new and different ideas for housetraining a puppy, because I refuse to clean up crap off my carpet for the next 15 years.

Option 1: Dog litter- Yes it exists. Weird? Absolutely.

Option 2: WixDog Indoor Puppy Training-Here is the description from their website:

Wizdog is a new revolutionary house training system for dogs. Consisting of a durable plastic pan and fitted grate, liquid waste dispenses through the grate onto newspaper or a pee pad, separated from your dog's paws - No more wet paw tracks throughout your house! Solid waste stays on top of the grate, so you never have to touch it. Just flip the grate, and it's gone. That's it!

I'm gonna say that's a big fat NO to the WizDog. And that diagram? WTF?

Option 3: Newspaper. Cheap. Easy. It's a winner.

So, now I'm off to paper train a puppy that is 50% outside trained. It proves to be comical if nothing else. I leave you with this face. If it doesn't melt your heart...I'm sorry.
