Im so pleased

[Erin]

We had a dog flap fitted about 12 days ago (im a real worrier and hate the thought of there ever being a fire here while ed and i are out and my babies being stuck in the house)we have been trying to train the dogs to use it from day one but they are just not interested,Choc wouldnt even go through it when we had tapped the flap open,even when I was on the other side waving cheese about :shock: .
Well anyway Ed has just stuck Lil out to go to the toilet (she HATES going out in the rain)and 5 seconds later shes back in,she used the flap!!!!!!!!!!!
We were that excited and kept telling what a good girl she was,she got really excited then did a wee in the kitchen :roll: :lol:
We have tried to get her to use it again by putting her outside,she came half way through then decided she wasnt playing anymore and backed out and sat outside the back door barking :roll: bless her!!!!!!

[Moli]

Aww bless her, she will get the hang of it, fancy putting her out in the rain poor baby, bad mummy!!

[Erin]

Its only spitting Moli,lol if you could see her when she was put out there you would think we had put her out in the middle of a storm :lol:

[Erin]

lol dont you just love them,ill have to remember to lock the flap next time.We have the training pads that we put down when it is really raining hard,like the weather we had last week but I dont use them when its only raining lightly,bless her little heart she went where we would usually have the pad :)

:lol: A saying comes to mind Erin...... "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" :-D

Seriously, I hope they both get used to it soon!;)

[Erin]

Thanks all,
We took them out for there morning run earlier today,it was raining but not to heavy,then it started pouring so we had to come home,i let them off their leads in the garden and they both shot through the flap at the same time:lol: it was so funny,and I couldnt believe Choc used it,thats the first interest hes shown in it since we had it fitted,we have tried to get them to use it going out but they wont :roll: :lol:
At least they can come in through it,its been a slow start but we are getting there :)

[Mags]

Hooray..........progress!! :lol:
