    For anyone who still has not received their money from a withdrawal they made on Sunday, I would strongly advise giving Amazon Payments a call! The lady I just spoke with stated that there was some sort of bug or something that occurred on Sunday that a lot of people were affected by. Basically, anyone that was affected has to call to have the "fix manually pushed through" on their account. IDK, her words, not mine. I just got off the phone with her, but I just received an email confirming she has "relayed your information to the team trained to handle this scenario."

    Also, I would definitely call instead of email. My email to them from Monday has gone unanswered.

    My 7 year old does this. I did a fabulous job of house training him as a pup but now he knows that about 25% of the time he goes out, he gets a treat when he comes back in. Guess what happens if I let him out 3 times in a row at 2am and he still hasn't gotten a treat? He gets a treat at 2:15am when he is let out the last time. He's the worst/best/smartest. Now he knows that I'm sick of the game and if he doesn't play around and just lets me know he wants a treat that I'll cave and we don't have to play the in and out game.

    I think he must just be abusing it then. He does really like to see the neighbors dogs from across the courtyard

    I grew up roller skating and as I got older just did it periodically here and there. When I lived in Atlanta I used to go to Piedmont Park and skate with my older brother and his friends. They had roller blades, I stuck with skates. There was a fork at one point on the trail and they always went that way and told me to go the other way. One day I decided to follow them. It was fine until I came around a bend and the path went almost straight down for a long way and then you could see the traffic going by. I started going faster and faster, etc. and did not know what to do to slow down. So, I figured it out in my head that I needed to roll when I hit the ground and then threw myself into the grass and rolled about 6 times. Other skaters went by just laughing, ha, ha. But at least I did not kill myself skating into traffic and when I started skating again I was slowed down enough to stop and turn at the bottom of the hill. Being clumsy all my life, I am good at falling and not hurting myself, so if you are also, that's one way to stop.

    How young is he of a puppy? Honestly, even if he is abusing it, if he's very young (like 4 maybe 5 months or under I'd say) I'd just let him abuse it. It's better safe than sorry at young ages to build good habits even if there is the downside of them being treat drama queens in the future. It's way easier to break them of being obsessive about going outside than it is to break the cycle of using the bathroom in the house.

    5ish months old, I definitely would rather go out then have to clean up a mess inside. My main worry was if it meant he was sick. It is getting a bit annoying at some times like now when it's cold and I'm being productive. I am at least able to watch CSATS on my phone out there when I bring him out.

    I got my start at DJing when I was 16 in a roller skating rink. I would mix the record then go out and do double duty as a skate guard lol

    Poor Skeeter has anxiety and some real shitty bathroom issues. He's literally afraid to tell you when he has to go, and he almost always needs to go in the middle of the night. I get up and let him out most nights, but some nights I wake up at 6am and realize it's too late. I would be so totally fine with it if he would just bark at me at 4am or whatever, but he's still too anxious to. I put puppy pads down where he usually has an accident and the living room is laminate, so it's usually not bad and it's not every dayWe had a doggie door for the laundry room at the last house and it was amazing. This setup is a little less ideal. I set up a spot for him to sleep outside when it's mild enough, but the batcrap insane dogs in the yards around us bark at him all night which makes him super anxious.

    That being said, he's much better than when I adopted him!
