Puppy Potty Training - How to succeed where others fail.
Follow these Top Tips for potty training success...
Stage 1 - Tip 1
  • Attach a leash to your puppy - you need to be able to control his environment.
  • Hide some treats in your hand - some treats that you know he likes.
Stage 2 - Tip 2
  • Now take your puppy outside - you can put a cue on this command - something like - "come on outside" or "want to go toilet.
    "
  • Use the same cue every-time - this way your puppy will learn to associate the two and won't get confused.
  • Watch your puppy for signs that he is going to eliminate - he may start sniffing the ground or assuming the position.
    As SOON as he does this it's your cue - say something like "go potty" or "go poop" "do your business" , It doesn't matter but use the same cue every-time.
  • When he has done his business - praise him.
    Don't just pet him and say "good boy", make a real deal out of it, make him feel really special and give him a treat - something that he really likes - my dog loves digestives - just use something that your dig really loves.
Stage 3 - Tip 3
  • Give your puppy an allotted amount of time when he is outside - if you want him to do his business in five minutes then give him five minutes - but don't give him twenty minutes on a Saturday and then expect him to do his business in five minutes on a Sunday.
Stage 4 - Tip 4
  • Ok so now try releasing your puppy from his leash - make sure that its safe and give him another cue - the same rules apply i.
    e use the same cue every-time.
  • Now it's the test - your puppy should now go do his potty in the allotted time.
  • If he doesn't go in the allotted time - bring him back inside and put him in his crate - for about 10-15 mins.
    This way you can watch him.
  • After the allotted time take him outside and try again.
Remember to be patient and take your time - don't shout at your puppy as it's very likely that he will have some accidents on the way.
However, if you follow these tips you should succeed very quickly in the potty training process.
