Our new "hound" is Bailey and she is about 4 + months old. She has had about 5 # 1 accidents and 2 # 2 accidents all on the tiled floor. We take her out often and she is now hanging around the back door when she needs to go out. It is up to us to recognize her signs and take her out. She sleeps in a crate at night and stays there when Mrs. CI and I are out. No accidents in the crate so she gets the basics of keeping her space clean.
