Yep, he goes and does the back feet thing. Sometimes he'll get into a barking contest with a neighbor dog and do the kicking w/o going.
Well there you go! :B
That is NOT a digger!
I was not confronted with this until I got the MinPins. It IS a LITTLE DOG THING! Genetics at it's best.
When they have to go it's a big freakin ordeal.:R Most don't want to take the time out of their fast little lives to go and when they do they do it's a big production, the kicking dance with their back feet spinning and some do bark.
I'll sound like a broken record to you but here goes.:C
Ex-pen off to the side of your yard put whatever you want under or don't and offer that small patch of grass up to the yard gods.
Put him in the expen when he needs to go. Let him pee and poop and pee again and most likely there will be a third time.
When he is done doing all the peeing pooping kicking, pick him up out of the ex-pen and let him loose in your yard and you open a cold one and enjoy your back yard.
Feel for me. I have to go thru all that with multiple dogs, while at a dog show, waiting for all their evacuation production to get over with so I am not late for the ring. I miss my Great Danes, wake them up, they lift a leg, squat and were off to the ring on time.:B
