So after having Loki for a short while. He's different then any dog i have ever had. He only whines in the crate when he has to go to the restroom. I get up as soon as I hear him or if the 2 hour mark has been reached. He Goes right to the door and waits for me, i put the leash (or mesh harness) on and we go outside. He goes to the same spot every time. Then he goes right back to the door and waits to be let in. We go inside he sits by the door and waits for me to remove the leash *or harness*. Then he will either play by himself or bring me a ball to throw, he chases it and drops it at my feet.
He is only 7 weeks old. I haven't even tried to push any training on him yet. Hes just doing this on his own. I asked the lady who I got him from and she said she never tried to train them other then puppy pads. He's yet to go in the house, if I don't come to the door fast enough he makes a whine then waits till I come up to go outside with him.
Did I luck out or is this just something that they all do as puppies. When I raised Rottweilers, training those puppies was....difficult...to say the least. Loki is like a godsend. He's content laying at my feet, then we play for 5 minutes, he naps for a hour, play, nap, eat, potty, repeat.
