You won't really use a real potty, the one you use for potty-training children, for puppy toilet training. What you'll use for house training a dog or a pup is the yard outside, or any place you'd want your pet to pee in or poop in. True, this is not an easy task, but, if you follow these puppy potty training tips, you'll make the activity easier and more successful: Among the very first dog housebreaking tips that every puppy owner should apply is to take the dog outside after its meal or after it drinks water; about 10 minutes after eating or drinking is a good idea. When you take your puppy out on the garden or the yard, refrain from playing with it. Your dog should realize that you took him or her out to do business and not to play. Once it does what it's required to do, that's the time to play. If within 10 up to 15 minutes outside and your pup still does not do anything, a puppy toilet training tip is to get it back inside the house, into its crate, wait for several minutes again, and then, take it back outside once more. As you're in the process of house training a dog, remember to observe your puppy and look for signs that it will have a pee or will defecate e.g. going round and round the area, sniffing around, and the like. Careful observation of your dog is included in puppy potty training tips because if you don't know the signs that your beloved pet will be doing business', the more prone it will be to make mistakes e.g. pooping inside your home, peeing on the rug, and so on. One of the dog housebreaking tips you should try is to lay on some newspapers at night or making a litter box filled with some soil or with sand which the puppy can use at night time. This is in the event that you're not able to take it out for a walk at night before bed time where it can poop or pee. This puppy toilet training advice is a must do unless you want to wake up with the room or the house smelling funny because your dog did its business while you were sleeping. The last tip that's usually included in puppy potty training tips, or in the techniques for house training a dog is to compliment your pet or give it a reward for doing good, in other words, for doing his or her business in the right place. You can say: Good boy' or Good girl' while patting it on the head, or you can give your puppy some doggie biscuits, or play with it after its good deed'.
