	Is anyone else having a problem with going potty outside? we go outside sometimes, but we really prefer inside!! On the carpet!! We have 24/7 access to the back door and we use it sometimes, but most days we prefer to stay inside, rain or shine! Mom has read that bichons are REALLLY easy to train and also bichons are IMPOSSIBLE to train!!! We''re on a "schedule" and try to cooperate, but it seems like everyday we have an "accident". Mom gets mad sometimes because we eat, we go out, we do our business, and then we come in and 20 mins later we do more of our business inside!!!! The family watches us pretty close (obviously not close enouth!), but we're sneaky!! Is there no hope? We are 5 and 3 and dad says lucky we're so cute cause otherwise we'd be "out of here!"

	Well, i dunno if i could help ya, but ill try. i was bought when i was very young and was house trained the very first week. like you, i loved going on the floor, but then my owners started giving me lots of treats and belly scratches when i came inside. and boy do i love those two things. so now i always go outside. so i think there is hope for you. however i hate going outside in the rain!! i make mommy hole me an umbrella!~ or else i will not go! so good luck!!!
