[nagdu] When To Relieve

[Shannon Dyer]

Once I came home from school, I transitioned my dogs onto my schedule. As long as you have a schedule of some kind, things should be fine.

When you talked to your instructor, did you indicate that you wanted to change her schedule to one that matched yours?

> Hey, everyone.  I need help.  My trainers have Becky on a very tight relieving schedule.  Her first time to go, by them, is 7:00 a.m..  I feed her, water her, then relieve her.  I am a very early riser, and I took her out earlier than 7:00 a.m.  But, by her actions, she had to go and she went immediately when I took her out.  They told me not to do this because we did not want her out of schedule and she could hold it.
