Recommended Answer:
Your dog is still a baby! Keep praising and rewarding him when he goes where you want him to, and scold when you catch him going where you do not want him to. You need to supervise constantly. Also, remember that when a dog eats he poops, so make sure you feed your dog on a schedule and do not leave the food down all day.
