OMG Lolita you truly just described my life I even live in Texas HA HA! Cowboy is the same way. It doesn't matter how many times he goes outside hhe still comes in and spot! I HAVE A LOUSY DOGGIE DOOR TOO and my two are lazy too! They hate the rain and cold so thats a prroblem too! I have resorted to a male diaper aka the weenie wrap and I am consently changing the kotex, he hates it and shows it by flipping himself on his back trying to rub it off and I worry that if he stays too long in a dirty one ie if he goes as soon as I leave for work I don't want him to get an infection.
