Not Officially an Accident
Before every ride, I take Sierra out for a potty stop. Today, she went out, pooped but didn’t pee. You probably know where this is leading…
She did her routine in the front yard. When she was done she rolled into the backyard and proceeded to pee with her harness and chair still attached.
I got her into the house, disconnected everything, then washed her off. Then I washed the harness and the side of the chair that got hit. Good thing the harness is very easy to wipe off.
Technically, it’s not an accident. After all, she was on the back grass where she normally does her business. Sigh…
I am going to have to be more persistent in that she does everything before coming back in to get harnessed. I’ve heard that some people cut patches in the back harness to allow for potty time. I’m not sure how you do this for a female dog. Another less on learned. Just because your dog hasn’t done something before doesn’t mean they won’t.
