LO skips away when I try to pet him, I know it's because he doesn't like to be picked up and cuddled but I can't resist that cute little puppy. I have probably startled him one too many times but being aggresive in picking him up for a cuddle, can I get him to come back to me, maybe it might just be patience.

Also, I think I have figured out the pooping in the house. It seems that when my husband or I let him out he thinks it's playtime therefore doesn't go potty, my mum (who lives with us) when she lets him out he seems to go potty. Has anyone experienced this?
