- Smart Dogs will no longer whimper at an unlocked door when nature calls.
Fixed in Patch 1.37.35
Mine got a message that they can now do it on their own after about 5 times directing them.
Did you ever get that message ?
I don't recall getting that message. But a "Smart" dog surely shouldn't take over a week to learn how to pee on their own? The OP on the forum thread says it's been two weeks and their dog still hasn't learned.
Maybe there's something wrong with the smart trait as there's another report that they also won't lie down when directed.
Could you try another dog with the smart trait to see if they have the same issue ?
At least four different players in the forum thread at http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/929148/do-adult-dogs-ever/ said their "Smart" dogs had this same problem.
Do they do other things ? Lie on the bed when directed ? Learn to not drink from toilet and puddles and that sort of stuff ?
