Perhaps one of the most important things that you will teach your new puppy is where his potty is - outdoors. Potty training should begin as soon as you have your puppy home. There will be accidents and many moments of frustration; however, you and your puppy can succeed at this necessary life lesson by following some tested and proven tips.
An actual potty spot should be chosen to be puppy's potty. In order to make the potty area more attractive in your yard, you can place potted plants or flowers around where your puppy goes to poop and pee. This will also probably help the dog to remember and easily recognize the location of his potty.
Teaching the command "outside" is very important. You should say this command loudly to your puppy whenever he pees or poops inside. Then you will have to pick him up and run outside with him to make him finish going potty in his puppy training area. Then you will praise him for actually going on the potty.
Believe it or not, eventually you will teach and enable your puppy to use the potty on command. Puppy training on command also calls for another command word of your choice.
Praise should be given every time your puppy asks to go outside and actually uses his potty. Tell your friends and family to be sure to praise him in these cases as well.
Keeping a diary if when your puppy eats, sleeps and potties can help you decide when the most average times are that he will need to poop or pee.
Never use punishment when potty training your puppy; for that matter, does not use punishment in any puppy training endeavor. Punishment only confuses and scares your dog. Then he will be likely to have more indoor accidents than before.
If you follow the mentioned tips, while maintaining routine, love, and firmness; just when you feel like he will never get it - puppy will surprise you one day in his potty training efforts. This will be the first time he asks to go outside to use his very own potty! - 32531
