We have great news! Sunshine will go out the dog doors! I have to say "Want to go outside" or "Find your spot". But this is huge progress. I've been herding him toward the doors and encouraging him to go out but he is now willing to brave the coat hall toward the door on his own when I tell or ask him to. He has yet to go out just because he wanted to so I still have to look after his bathroom habits but I think we are on our way.
He made one small step in coming in yesterday. I've been putting up trash can lids to block his access to the bushes he wants to hide in when he doesn't want to come in. Yesterday after some strategic positioning of blocking elements he followed Blossom in though one dog door to the house. I had the door to the garage open so he went through that door on his own. I probably won't get a repeat of it tonight but I'm very happy with the progress.
