subject: Learn to Teach Your Dog Not to Pee and Poop in Your House [print this page] Getting a new puppy can be a great experience, but if your pet is not trained properly and chooses to pee and poop in your home it can become a nightmare. Being a successful and happy pet owner doesn't have to be an impossible challenge, if you just follow a few simple steps that I will spell out for you in this article. The most important thing to keep in mind from the start is not to get too frustrated and stick to the few simple rules.
Stay calm and keep your composure in the event your dog has an accident on your floor. Keep in mind that it is natural for such accidents to occur.
Keep your dog in a secure closed location when you first leave them alone. A place with a floor that can be wiped easily is best.
Never scream at your dog, or push his face into the mess. This will only cause them to fear you whenever you put your hand up to pet them.
Be consistent and make sure your dog knows what you expect from them. The best way to do this it to be firm and let them know that you are serious. They need to know that there is a time for play and there is a time to listen to you.
Be consistent with you dog. Use the same tone of voice when teaching them.
