I have a 5 month old female poodle. She knows that she is supposed to go outside. I do keep her in a crate when I am gone and let her out to go outside and do her business. The problem is when she is not in the crate. She has not learned a way to tell me she has to go. She will go into a hidden place and go. How can I train her to give me a signal of some kind when she has to go outside.

BTW, have a male poodle that is older that goes and barks at the door when he has to. Didn't train him to do it. It is just what he do

We have voice mail on the first line.

This may seem like a silly question but we do have the problem. We have a new puppy that insists on grabbing our older dog's ears. Keeps pulling the hair out. This is upsetting my wife a lot.

Anyone one with any advise how to either protect the big dog's ears or how to get the puppy to stop would be greatly apreciated.

The Plan!

>rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them is

>stolen or given to the army. The people who need it most get very
