DeBora - I had two thoughts. One is kind of extreme and I don't think you can do it in the trailer court but the other might help.

I used to have a follower dog. The only way I could teach her to pee outside (in the rain or otherwise) was to go myself. I had to wait until the dark of night without a moon rise but once or twice and she got the idea. Sorry I know this is odd but she was a really messed up dog because of the previous owners' abuses and this was a last resort to help her.

The second thing is that once the ashes come home, Poncho will get it. Dog's noses are really sensitive. Could Poncho get some comfort until then from sleeping with Jet Bo's blanket or wearing his coat, using his leash? the familiar smell thing would be with him all the time then.
