Ruth...he eats at 6!!!! He was on a good schedule when this started. He's on a good food that makes his doo nice and firm..so theres no soft stuff. I haven't a clue whats going on with him. No worms or anything else bac/virus wise either. For some reason this is the toughest pup I've had to p/train, and i am doing everything the way I've trained 1 Westminster winner, 12 Champions and 8 all around great dogs. But this IS my first Pug. Maybe its a breed thing. Not sure.
doggy door???? maybe that's not the best choice. maggie louise, the undertrained rottweiler/lab decides sometimes that she has to defend us from something at 2 am. and she's so darn proud of it, too!!!!!!
hope you didn't hurt yourself in your little adventure....
No i didn't get hurt Jiffy...but it hurts to think about it now...I laugh so hard.
As for the PugBeast...yes I've tried kennelling and he just cries the whole time and THEN poops and pees in the crate out of shear frustration. He goes into the crate when we are not home and does not do that, but I night he freaks and needs his mom and dad. I even tried puppy pads, which I don't agree with, but you just get to the point you gotta try something! He's sleeping beside me on the floor and having a very active puppy dream.
Times like these he's so cute....and then I look at the other end.
Rubens-Hope everything works out okay in the end. Maybe you are right about it being a feces (I mean species) thing.
Ellis-Don't be a stool pigeon!! Don't have a hissy sh!t just because we are talking about bodily functions. You are #2 good for that!! (I could go on for hours, but I'll take pity and stop dumping on you.)
Poop is always the topic of conversation in our house:
"Did the dogs poop?" "Big or small poop?"
My first baby, Emo, has the hardest time keeping her small bladder in check. My second baby, Keiko, is a perfect gentleman. They're both the same breed. I think it's a personality thing!
Have you changed the dog food lately? Try something high quality for smaller poops. Like Iams. (for the love of gawd! No puupy food! It makes them virtual poop machines!)

ROFLOLPIMP! How old is this critter? He just may not have developed complete bowel control.
Now if we want to talk dog poop, I am the complete expert on that and also on coprophagia or however it's spelled!
Poor Reuben - see what her desperation thread started.
