Small Successes Lead to Big Steps

Tiki has had a successful few days. Tiki is now using  the pad to do her business and pee.   She loves the praise and treats she gets for doing so well.  Such a good girl, I tell her.  Now how do I get her to go outside?  What I'm wondering is should I take the "pad" with us on our walk?

She loves her walk although she stops frequently and I have pull on the leash to get her to move.  She has such a cute walk with her fur on her head blowing in the breeze.
 Today we plan to go to the pet store to buy her a new coat and perhaps a shirt.  The cute pink coat is not very waterproof.  I should have chosen the ugly yellow one but I went for style rather than practically.

Since I am still unable to put the cone on Tiki and keep it on, I am still staying close to home.  The vet said perhaps a shirt or they can order me a collar like a neck brace.  I really don't want to go that route and trying to put the cone on Tiki again is not something I want to put her though.I just have to keep a real close eye on her so she doesn't lick and pull out her stitches from surgery.

What I need is a dog watcher so I can get some groceries next week.  Any volunteers?
