[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 535454, member: 6705"] Lisa, Bubbles was crate-trained because husband and bio and the kids lived in an apartment. Bio did NOT walk the dog. husband did - all over the place - and while Bubbles is super friendly, he [I]is[/I] still leash trained. husband was gone up to 12 hours a day. Then he was TDY for the weekend when bio left and as best we can figure Bubbles "held it" for almost 3 days and was none the worse for wear - except he now HATES to be crated. Rainbow - my Samoyed - was never crate trained. I got her when we lived in west Texas, so she was outside all day. She had shade - a porch and doghouse - and plenty of water. 9-10 hours a day. When we moved to Ohio, she became an indoor/outdoor dog - the first winter Dad built an insulated box inside her doghouse, but after that she was inside at night and during the winter when I was at school. As soon as I got home she got let out. Again - 7-8 hours. But by that point she was potty trained. [/QUOTE]
