Linda,
Funny you should recommend trying to take him out twice because I actually tried that before I read your email. I took him out once as soon as I got home for lunch and he only urinated, so I tried again 10 minutes later and he pooped...when I got home I had no "surprises." So, I will try this method from now on and hopefully we will see some great improvements. He has gotten much better about not going in the house though so at least that is a step forward. Thanks for all your help and I'm sure I'll need alot more as we go
