UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: VIDEO Advice: Transitioning Puppy Pads to Outdoor Potty Training on 10 month old doodle

Need some advice, outlook, difficulty, etc in this situation

Here is the history:

Ten month old Doodle, trained to potty on pads while the owner is not home. The owner is rarely home.

Never been in a crate or crate trained.

Understands the very basic of commands but that is in a foreign language ( Chinese)

If you were taking this dog into your home how would you go about immediately changing things? Especially the potty situation.

We use bells here.

Would you put pads by the door then work your way outside?

Do dogs who use pads often go inside on other things?

I have no idea what to expect! NONE

Other suggestions.

Here she is. She is well behaved. Soft. Trained. She is fine. Thank you for the advice.

We have decided to start fresh with training. So far-Perfect

SHE May Be Spud's actual Sibling. Same breeder address.

She is a very pretty girl. A good play mate for Spud. She hold's her own. If she truly is a sibling of Spud's, if there is any chance she has that same hard to manage/comb/brush coat as Spud's, any probably new owner should probably be warned about that as well. I know you have struggled with keeping Spud matt free.
