Sure, we all love our dogs. The indoor poop and the pee spots are unfortunate incidents that happen to come with the package. Wouldn't it be great though to not have to deal with cleaning up his mess anymore? With your patience and these tips on potty training dogs, it can be done.
Hearing the obligatory chores in house training dogs is enough to make the best of us cringe. Some don't even bother to make an effort. As a result, many dogs have never learned the basics on toilet training. It may be easier to teach puppies good habits, but adult dogs can still learn to do their business outside properly.
If you plan to teach your dog to not do something anymore, good luck. You won't encounter much success. Instead, you should unseat the wrong behavior in his daily activities by substituting it with a new pattern. In this case, its learning to go outside for eliminating.
Find a spot outdoors specifically for his toilet needs. Fifteen minutes after he finishes eating, bring him to the designated area and wait for him to discharge the recently concluded meal. Use one phrase he will associate with this activity like, 'go potty' or 'get pooping' and repeat it until he actually does it. Praise him profusely right after so he will understand that phrase as a signal that its time to eliminate. Repeat this process for a few weeks and use the same spot every time. You will need consistency in house training dogs.
Accidents are still bound to happen. If you catch your dog in the middle of potty while still indoors, stop him suddenly then bring him outside quickly to finish. Praise him and give him a treat after he finishes his business outside successfully. If you find the evidence but didn't catch him actually doing it, don't reprimand your dog. He will not understand what you are yelling at him for and it will confuse him. Be extra vigilant to your pet after meals to ensure this does not happen.
When it happens, immediately clean up the accidents as thoroughly as possible. A deodorizing solution should be applied to remove any residual smell the poop might leave behind. Dogs will sniff out the area and use it again for the same purposes. Keep their cages as small as comfortably possible to aid in potty training dogs. Animals do not relish sleeping in the toilet area so they will restrain eliminating until you can get them outside.
Do not bring food and water to your pet two hours before sleeping or else you might find yourself sleepily leading him out at night for toilet breaks. Take him out to walk early morning or right after he finishes nap time. When you have successfully accomplished training him to go potty outdoors, ensure that going outside is accessible and convenient for him. An open back door will encourage him to continue his newly found talent in discharging outside.
Potty training dogs is every responsible pet owner's priority. This will keep your dog disciplined and mentally stimulated- a good preparation for other obedience tasks. More than that, your home will welcome the change and thank you for it.
