We put up a small fenced off area in the backyard for Elgin. He is doing excellent with the new arrangement.  He already has adjusted to the new routine and is thriving with it.  We still take a good long walk every day but he does his business at home and we've had no accidents since the switch.  I think he finally gets it.
 His hair is getting long and I think he's due for a haircut.  He did get a little bang trim this week.

He doesn't look too happy here but trust me he's happy to be able to see where he's going again.
