[NAGDU] Ring the bell

[d m gina]

Wow what is this, my girl has taken on pooping in the house. They are 
fresh and normal.
I need to get stuff again to put down on the carpet where she loves to go.
At least it is in the same place.
This time I bumped it with my shoe and didn't step in it.
She gives paws.
Pilot didn't teach at least in my class clicker training.
I have her on leash, and when I think I have the schedule down it 
changes for her.
I feed twice a day and keep her on leash at night so when at 11 when we 
go to bed I take her out for her to poop and pee.
She does both, as well as both in the morning.
Then I wait until ten take her out where she doesn't do a thing.
We go to our what ever we wish to do, come home and she will bark at 
other dogs.
Some times she wil pee.
We will take a walk come home to get her to poop, when we do it in the house.
She had company did well with company didn't go in the house, now they 
are gone so we start again.
I know we will get this worked out.
What a notty liggle girl.
I love it that the bell is rung.
