Firstly let me introduce Bertie a 13 week Basset Fauve de Bretagne.



Now onto the issue.... since about 10weeks he's been clean in the house, asks to go out of the back door and performs.

However, never goes to p or p when we take him for a walk out of the front door.

Admittedly walks aren't long, 500m a couple of times a day, happy to go out, watches our other dog do what's required but refuses, however as soon as we get home he goes through to the garden and performs!!

Is this an issue or will he grow out of it?

Teach a `toilet` command - Wait until he pees / s*its say toilet and go mildly mental in high pitched idiot voice, treat etc whatever floats his boat.

Use toilet command when out and about.
yep Toilet command works well in the garden.... just doesn't have any effect when out and about!!

We wondered if it was becuase he had a lead on but he quite happily P&P with a lead on when in the garden, he's even quite happy p&ping in other peoples gardens just not when out and about (even on a football pitch)... god knows we'll just keep working with him and I'm sure he'll get over it at some point......
