you never take your dogs outside?

first thing is we take jasper out of the crate, make him ring the bell with his paw (pick up his paws and put it on the bell hanging from the doorknob), make him sit while we put on the leash, make him sit while opening the door, i try to make him sit again before opening the screen door but he usually won't. Take him outside to pee and poop. bring him in to eat. he'll poop again within 2 hours. pees, too. then i take him outside probably every 3 hours. give him food again around 5. take him outside to poop wtihin an hour.. sometimes he'll go in the house in 30 minutes , sometimes an hour, so it's hard to gauge when to take him out.. maybe 15 minutes from now.

i can get him to sit, stay, come, lay down, give me his paw. takes a lot of reptition, not a lot of time, though. any noise or movement other than me, and he won't do any of it except maybe sit. gotta work on that. and he'll only do it if there's food in my hand like a small reward snack.

gotta keep your dogs on a schedule, man. it works. easy, too. doesn't take much effort.
