Tell Bell

DH's sister sent us this Tell Bell for teaching Willie how to ring a bell to go out to use the bathroom...She sent Jay's daughter, Tiffanie one too. It came with 2 bells and a CD on how to train....Has anyone else used this? How hard is it to train.....Or did anyone have success with it? I am all excited to start.....I hope we can do it....Thanks!

The people who originally owned our lab, Sunny, had him bell trained. The next owner stopped using it, so he doesn't use it for us.

But, I hear he was well trained for the original owners.

Never heard of it. My dogs just go and scratch on the door, or if I am not in the room, they come and get me. Little Man has not learned that part yet, he will just sit by the door until someone notices him!

I won't say what mine does...

Minpin's are notorious for never being completely housebroke! Of course I didn't learn about that until AFTER we got him!!

Claudia, why can't they be house broken? I don't believe it....Let me have him......

I have heard people say that the Paps were hard, or they need those pads to pee on.....BS......

We are still doing the bell......in the dog forum that I belong to,

.....I asked them, and no one likes them......they say they will ring for anything......oh well....I will pick it up if that happens.....I do know you HAVE to be consistent and ONLY for potty......but, that is hard to do, also....they say.....

I will keep you posted.....

They are known to be a little hard headed, they do pout and most of our accidents occur during the winter because he absolutely detests really cold weather! If it gets in the low teens ar colder I can bank on it!
