Hello, and thank you for your question! Potty training is challenging but it sounds like you're halfway there. Does Leo poop readily on a pee pad in the house? If so, next time you take him out, try bringing a pee pad with you and putting it on the grass. This may help him make the connection. Every time he does go poop outside, give him lots of praise and treats, which will encourage him to do it again. With patience and consistency, you will be able to fully potty train him within a few more weeks! Best of luck! I hope this helps!
