How To Potty Train Your Canine Through Dog Training

Any animal lover will be excited to have a dog
around the house. These domesticated animals can
provide you with a lot of love and fun. On top of
that, they also know how to protect their owners
and the rest of the family. However, owning an
untrained canine can be very messy especially
when they do not know where they should relieve
themselves. As we all know, teaching them while
they are young is the way to go. This is the case
because they are able to easily absorb and
remember whatever lessons are taught to them at a
young age.

Having a housebroken pet will make our lives a
lot easier. On top of that, it will save us from
a lot of humiliation when we have guests around.
This kind of training is very important because
it will serve as the foundation for the rest of
its education. Keep in mind that puppies can get
easily distracted and want to play all the time.
Instead of getting mad and mistreating the
animal, try to stay calm, be patient, and be
consistent.

Always remember that mistreating the animal in
any way can thwart any of your efforts in
training him how to be a well-behaved animal,
because these negative reinforcements can have
consequences. It is a fact that mistreated
animals have a tendency to be withdrawn,
aggressive, and fearful.

When you first receive your puppy and you want to
start potty training him, you need to keep the
following in mind:

• Always follow a schedule. You should take
your pet on regular walks at a specific time
every morning. It is usually best to take him out
to relieve himself after he has eaten, woken up
from his nap, and right after playing with him.

• You should provide a controlled area for
him. Dogs do not like to soil the area where they
sleep. Once you have established this, potty
training will be quite easier.

• In the event that he relieves himself
inside your house, you need to clean up after him
immediately. Doing so will help you get rid of
the smell. Dogs are quite territorial and will
"go" in areas where they can recognize their
scent.

• Every time your pet is able to "go" in his
designated area, give him a reward. This will be
useful as a positive reinforcement and he will
remember to relieve himself in the right.

• Ensure that everyone in the family
participates.

Once you keep these in mind and practice them on
a regular basis, you will have a potty-trained
dog in the house in no time. Just always remember
to be patient and consistent with the whole
process. If at first you don't succeed, try
again.
