Potty training puppies is not something that people generally look forward to, and if you are like me, I know you would agree, am I right? The toilet area for them ends up becoming everywhere except where you want, and you and your new friend just become frustrated.

While some techniques for training your puppy may work well for you, they may not work very well for other people.

There are some techniques used by old-fashioned types as an example, which try to teach dogs when they are doing something that is considered wrong, or bad. But a dog is not likely to know the difference between right and wrong.

Some people use methods such as rubbing the dogs nose in the mess, which seems to rarely work for many people and is considered inhumane.

It seems to many people that a dog wouldn't have any idea that he was doing anything wrong while using the bathroom in a new house that is not potty friendly yet. The dog is simply doing what it has to do, and not trying to ruin anybody's day.

A dog wouldn't work out of spite and purposely go to the bathroom on the carpet of a new place, but he may have to go really bad, and will pick just about any place to go.

Most people would agree that house training your dog is not a whole lot of fun, but it is something that must be done when he comes into his new home.

Some simple things that anybody can do to ensure a properly trained pet is to learn to work with it, learn its habits, and try to teach it some new ones.

When potty training a puppy dog, it is helpful to keep these tips in mind:

* Realize that your dog has no idea of what right or wrong is, and that accidents are bound to happen

* Feeding and walking schedule - Introducing your dog to a standardized schedule will really help him or her to develop regular bathroom habits.

* Puppy clicker training - A very popular way of using a clicking device when the animal does something favorable during training.

A well trained dog leads to a happy dog, and a very happy owner! Taking the time to properly potty train your new friend, as well as train him in other behavioral areas will help the both of you live a happy life together.
