haha its normal. my bullie did that at first. i have a blacklab/germansherpard mix, and would take em out at the same time. but that didnt cut it. because puppies dont have control over their “lower” functions, like urinating, because the muscles arent as developed, so they’ll have a few accidents. I began taking him out 15 mins after a meal, and id grab him when i saw him sniffing around. i taught Chip, my puppy, to sit at the top of the stairs when he needs to go. hes pretty much figured it out and no more accidents. Chips so dang cute i dont wanna be stern either, but, look Cookie in the eye when giving her a command and when she obeys dont forget to spoil her to death with a treat in hand. especially when she goes outside. :p
