Okay, but hamburgers for the puppy and flowers for the GF. No more tears from anyone.

Don't trust them off a leash. If you plan on leaving your dog unattended in a yard, go NUTS making it escape proof, including under fences. PM me for horror stories about escaping beagles.

QFT big time. Brother in law has a beagle, who got out one time we were house sitting, at about 11 pm at night. They're fast and impossible to catch.

Also, enjoy the howling.

Speaking from experience here in regards to paper/pad training. My girlfriend talked me into letting her get a similarly stubborn breed to house train (miniature dachshund). We tried pad training her at her request(I had never tried this method before so I thought I would give it a shot) and all that we accomplished was training the dog that it was acceptable to go to the bathroom in the house.

So after months of this we had to start all over again and it basically wound up taking us forever to house break her.

I'm going to avoid pad/paper training for every dog in the future. I'm also going to attempt to stop letting my girlfriend talk me into [censored], but we all know that I'm going to lose out on that one.

I never understood why anybody thought pad training was a good idea. It's a pretty subtle distinction between going on the pad and going on the carpet. If you're already crate training, why are you also teaching your dog to piss on the floor? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
