    Hello, I need some advice. I have a 4yr old Labrador he is very well behaved now as an adult. I live in an apartment and I trained him so he knows his toilet area is outside and he never empties himself inside the apartment. I will like to have another Lab as a new member and I´m thinking to get a female puppy. I have some concerns and doubts when a get the puppy and bring him home. While I house-train the new puppy and he learns to go outside to the toilet and in the mean time there will be some accidents, will my Lab start urinating inside the apartment as he will smell the new odors? Will he start to mark his territory?

    Thank you, good to hear some dogs do not change their habits.
