subject: Puppy Potty Training Tips [print this page] As the dog owner you must first recognise the signs from the dog that suggests he is need of using the toilet. These are usually obvious signs in the dogs behaviour. Typically a dog will hover around the door, scratch and sniff the exit and try and grab your attention. Noticing these signs quickly will enable you to effectively make puppy potty training easy from the start.
It is important for a puppy to be exposed to a scheduled routine. This benefits you as you can fit the puppys needs into your life and also the puppy because he can learn to be autonomous and be fitted into the household heirachy below you. Obviously the schedule you create is upto you but it is advisable to let the puppy out during the morning first thing and also last thing before you go to bed so you can avoid having to wake up during the night.
If you want the puppy to continue going to the toilet outside it is essential that they receive adequate praise. The dog needs to know that they have done the correct thing. A good way of doing this is to give them treats as well as praise. You want the dog to be able to associate the reward with the behaviour so they will continue to act this way.
The first few times you let your puppy out you may be required to keep the dog company to alleviate any distress or anxiety he may have of doing his business outside or being left alone. The aim is to let the dog do it in his own time and not feel stressed otherwise he may decide to do it somewhere nice and quietly indoors instead! If the puppy has a nice experience he is likely to carry on this way.
