Potty Training better today with 1 pee accident

He woke up today and seemed better than yesterday.  Back to his usual rambunctiousness.  Potty training is doing great.  The dog and I don't want to go outside so I pointed at his litter box first thing in the morning and he pee'd in there.  So I gave him a treat.  We played a bit then I put him back in the pen he pooped in his litter box so I gave him another treat.  Cleaned it then I prepare his food.  I noticed if he needs to pee he would go to the gate and wait there and it's up to me notice that and put on his harness so we can go outside to potty.  Or if he is playing then he would stop then kind of like sniff around then that's my cue that we have to go outside.
Today potty training is good. But i just need to make sure his poop are like tootsie roll.
He woke up same time like my son and same feeding time + or - 15mins. He didn't want me to carry him this time.  He yelled as my hand reach in so I let him walk outside our room.  I had his litter box ready outside our room since it's cold outside still about 50 degrees.  
I made him chicken rice pumpkin firm.  His poo looks good.
I came back from errands about the time of his feeding and seemed off.  Like he didn't want to come out of his open crate to fence.  He looks mad or sad.  I tried to get him to play with me and give him treats but he is not his usual rambunctiousness.  He wanted to be by himself today.  Towards the night, I think he was hurt.  He doesn't want to go over the fence's door.  His poop is great but hope he feels better tomorrow.  I added kibble to his food just a little bit.

Chicken rice and pumpkin for forming poo

So this morning his poop is holding a shape but still a bit soft.  Overall better than yesterday.  So today I'll try chicken and rice without pumpkin.  I fed him without pumpkin but on his 3rd poo, it was getting wet again so i have put the pumpkin firm up back with chicken and rice.  Today he was rambunctious again.  I'm glad he is back to his old self even though he's very energetic today.

Solving his wet poo issues

So today he woke up as usual with my son.  I tried to take him outside and it's cold so we tried to get him to poo in one of the dog litter box and he did and still wet.  So this morning he ate his pre made kibbles.  On his 2nd meal I cooked him boiled chicken, white rice and diggin' firm up pumpkin.  I cut 1 chicken breast in half then i boiled it high then med for 15mins.  I cut or shredded them into little pieces.  The rice was from the fridge so i put like a 2 tsp of water then microwave for 20sec.  He is picky he doesn't like cold food.  Hopefully tomorrow his poop will firm up.

Wet poo, what to do

So today he was having diarrhea.  Wet poo all day.  I feel bad for him. My husband mentioned chicken and rice from some of his co workers who has pugs and experienced pug owners.  I probably should lay off his supplements too.  I could feel tiredness from him.  So tomorrow i'll start it.

Day 4 potty training

Today he woke up at 6am with my son.  I immediately took him to the livingroom fence.  Waiting for him to poo. After waiting he finally pooped then I fed him.  The bad thing about the litterbox is that he steps on it after going.  I need to get another one hmm? What's next?

Day 5 Potty Training

Today he woke up at 6:00ish AM.  I took him outside with his collar and he poop right away.  I wiped his butt and took him back inside to play with my son while I prepare his food. He ate around 6:45AM then poop at 7:30 outside.
Today's plan is to fix his open crate training in the living room.  Make his fence more bigger to play with and have more space to poo on.  The other crate 26" crate is coming today and his puppia harness.  So the puppia harness XS I ordered came and it's too small.  I ordered another one this time it's small.

There was no accident so far inside the house until my husband came home at night and let him loose after he ate I told them that he needs to poo after 15 to 20mins.  I have google mini to thank for that.

day 3 potty training

Today he woke up at 6am-(i saw pooped outside his crate) I carried him to the living room fence area.  He pooped then I fed him his food.  Then he peed.  We played after.  At 8am he is tired.  He went back to sleep, while I take my son to school.  I went for my 2mile jog, hurried to get groceries, then home.. 9:20 Im back home and he is still sleeping.
10am- I fed him again then he pooped 15 mins later.  We were playing then I just see him strutting and peeing on the floor.  I tried to put him back in the fence area.
1:45pm we tried on his harness.  It looks a bit big.  I had to make the opening really small even though the size is XS.  Then I prepared his food and we tried to walked outside but he was so scared to walk on the floor, so i just carried him out while I lead the way.  It was chilly outside so we walked out furthermore where the sun is hitting us.  I put his food down and ate it all.  I could see his back legs shivering while he ate.  It was about 55 degrees today and some wind.  Then he pooped after 15mins eating. We went back inside and put him back to his fence area then I went to picked up my son at school.  We came back home and we played with him for a bit, put him back in his area and he took another nap.
My husband came back early because I had to return the rental.


Today there were a lot of accidental peeing.  And an accidental poo's on the floor while my husband supervised.  I asked Deb for tips and she said litter box might help us because he doesn't have any designated toilet area.  He doesn't know where to go.  Potty training reminds of when I was potty training my son, we had to catch him kind of like carry him out to the toilet area to continue his business.  Supervised when he is outside the fence area.

To do list tomorrow: buy litter box with  little opening at the bottom from petco to aid us with potty.
and maybe a thermal jacket he can wear for outside potty.
