I know she can’t help it but Roxy usually leaves a daily accident in the hallway.
The pile on the right has been there more than 24 hours. The other was made during the night. I’m pretty sure Stephanie and Bert have seen it as she uses that bathroom (opening to right) and Bert took two showers (and gave one to Kira - she rolled in something on a walk). Unless they both hold their noses and avert their eyes, they know it’s there. Maybe they figure it can be left since you can get into the bathroom. The white pads are usually urine soaked as Roxy does both in the house (as I usually have to lift my legs since I don’t wear shoes or socks). Maybe Bert doesn’t know how to house break a dog. (You can tell Roxy has been abused from her prior owners. (She is such a sweetheart tho.)) The only thing he may need to do is use a cage for her temporarily (maybe he thinks that’s a form of abuse) and curtail free roam through the house – probably a week or two. He seems to do everything else for them. A pain, for sure, but everyone will be happier in the end. Bert won’t need to clean the carpet either!
And yes, we have cats who have contributed from time to time. For 1 cat, I would check the litter 2-3 times/day and if I smelled a need to. What about 3 cats? Right now they are checked once every 2-3 days. I know from experience cats don’t like a soiled litter box.
It would be nice too if Alexis took the dogs out, before she went to work, more consistently. She leaves for work in what seems plenty of time. I would say she takes them out about 70% of the time. Why it isn’t closer to 100% (or at least >90%) I’m not sure. She demonstrates a lot she loves them. Maybe she just gets distracted.
