I am just amazed... have to brag on her a bit. So please bear with me. LOL

Canada let us sleep until 5:30 this morning undisturbed. Then she woke us crying and a bit frantic so we took the dogs outside. She hadn't relieved herself in the house at all and went as soon as she got outside. For a 5 yr old "outside" dog I thought this was pretty fantastic. She obviously appreciates being inside and is trying very hard to not give us any reason to rush to put her back out. LOL

I'm seriously thinking if she continues like this she will have earned her place as a "house dog". I'd love to have her inside other than when she has puppies to care for. I hate the idea of her being lonely outside when all she really wants is to be loved and doted on.
