If you are tired of stepping into a puddle of pee and find yourself saying, ‘potty outside’ over and over, then you definitely will want to read this article. There are do’s and don’ts for training your new puppy. A positive approach and consistency will bring you success. Once you’ve mastered this, both you and your dog will be happier.
Wiggling, licking, happy, loving bundle of fur — your new dog! Potty training begins immediately. Remember as you get started these important DON’Ts:
Don’t rub its nose on the poop.
Don’t hit or kick your dog.
Don’t yell at your dog.
Don’t punish your dog in anyway.
Treat your dog with kindness and love and your relationship with your dog will flourish.
The DO’s are easy to follow:
Do use positive reinforcement.
Do make sure he doesn’t have any health problems. Make sure you take your dog to your vet for a check up as soon as possible.
Do take him to potty after he exercises or whenever you take him for a walk.
Do take him to potty after he exercises or you take him for a walk.
Do just before bedtime; take him to his potty place.
Do make sure he doesn’t have any health problems with a visit to your vet.
Yelling is bad, praise is good. Using positive approach works very well with your dog and potty training. Praise makes your dogs behavior reinforced and repeated. When he goes potty, use a high pitched voice and say things like, good boy. A treat, a pet, a good rub, feel good to you and your dog. You are the one setting the stage for a positive relationship with your dog during potty training.
Consistency is very important in potty training your dog. Your patience helps too. Remember that your dog adores you and will do anything to get your approval. If you feed him at the same time each day, and then take him outside to his potty place, your dog will respond to this routine by taking care of ‘business’. Remember that puppies need to potty after they wake up, after meals and after play. Make sure you give your dog plenty of time to potty. Sometimes they pee more than once or some need to ‘find the perfect spot’ to pee. Remember to praise him for a ‘job well done’.
Now you know the importance of the Do’s & Don’t of potty training your dog, using a positive approach and being consistent. Put this to use and you and your dog will live ‘happily ever after’.
