Housebroken??!!

Sobe is now approaching 5 months old and he has been with us for 2 whole months now.  Feels like he's been around forever though!  I still can't believe I've been waking up everyday at 7am for 2 whole months and counting!!! 

In this entry, I'd like to revisit Sobe's potty training.  His last accident was on Monday morning when Rick and I were getting ready for work and we gated him outside the hallway to our bedroom.  He whimpered, scratched at the gate and ended up spotting on our rug.  I think he was nervous/ excited and panicking but still, an accident's an accident, whatever the reason.  Aside from that Sobe has been very good and holding it in.  I notice myself relaxing more lately and can even leave him in the room alone for a short amount of time.  His crate time has been shortened.  We used to leave him crated in the evenings for a couple of hours before his last walk of the night.  Now, he's out and about and we haven't had any accidents (fingers crossed).  We still crate him when we leave the house but I hope that by next month, we can confine him to the kitchen or part of the room where he can run around during the day and crate him at night.  Rick and I basically stick to a rigid schedule with him since he still doesn't communicate his need to go outside.  Let's see how this month progresses!!
