Choose one area outside and use that for elimination. Do not leave Coco unsupervised indoors. He should be crated or on a leash attached to your hip. Monitor for his cues that he needs to go out. This may include circling, whining or sniffing about. Take him outside immediately to the chosen area and wait. No walks, no playing, just wait. Once he does his business, praise and reward him. You can also use attractant sprays to get hom to go in the chosen spot. Be consistent. At his age though, expect "accidents".
