ive got a verandah outside my house where it is covered and i think best place to keep Roy in... just wondering how high can i make the fence so it will not escape? and abt toilet training and stuff.. do i take it out every few hours or let it poop in the verandah?? 1st time having a dog here

thanks! thats a really helpful thread.. well its name is 'noon' from the old owner.. and im planning to change it to Roy.. yes it is 9 months old.. will it get confused if i change the name now? and i keep it in a verandah and i can toilet train it to poop anywhere specific if i want.. sometimes when i take it for a walk i can just let it poop anywhere?eg my mums garden rite? =P
