[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 535611, member: 11791"] A good time to take them outside is [I]after[/I] feeding... by about half an hour. Usually, that's about when they "need" to go. They will definitely do better with a consistent routine and schedule. If you want to try something different... do NOT "feed" them, at least for one feeding of the day. Instead, make them "work" for every bite of kibble. Play the 'name game' (reward for looking up when you call pup's name). One day, reward every time they sit (no command, just reward sititng nice... they then come to understand that you "like" that behavior). On another day, reward every attempt to come in your direction, or lay down, or go kennel... you aren't teaching the commands, but rather, "telling" them what things please you. [/QUOTE]
