Episode 1: Training Your Dog to Use the Toilet
Hello and welcome to a new Episode from DogPottyTrainingTips.Net
Today we are going to talk about: Training Your Dog to Use the Toilet
If you have brought home a new canine friend, you have brought in a lot of responsibilities. You not only need to provide him with the best food, care and other facilities but also with the best dog house training possible.
House training a dog includes a number of elements such as dog crate training, dog potty training and others. Though the rest of the elements of dog training can wait, dog toilet training is something you need to start right away.
Potty training puppies is often easier than potty training an adult dog as he has become used to old habits. However, a puppy is still gaining habits and you can shape its habits in accordance with your convenience.
You can begin with taking it to a particular place everyday and stay there till it does potty and gradually start taking it to the toilet at the same time, especially right after feeding.
It is also advisable to make use of words such as NO or BAD BOY, when your puppy starts relieving itself in wrong places.
It is also advisable to use the REWARD METHOD for potty training. In other words, you should appreciate your puppy when it goes to the toilet by giving it, its favorite food or favorite toy and taking them away when it fails to do so.
This will make it realize that doing potty in the toilet gets his rewards and slowly, it will get accustomed to it. You might need a lot of patience with your puppy while it is still being potty trained.
It is also advisable to spread disposable sheets in and around its sleeping and playing area, so that you do not need to put in extra effort of cleaning them during the training.
Once your dog starts appreciating the fact that the toilet is the right place to go potty, make sure you leave the toilet doors open, especially after your dog has had its meals or when it shows restlessness and starts moving in circles. Try understanding these gestures and associate them with what your puppy might be asking for.
