house training

  

Housetraining a dog is an essential part of basic obedience. Here's a concise guide to housetraining:

· Establish a routine:

o Take your dog out at consistent times, especially after waking, eating, drinking, and playing.

o Choose a specific spot outdoors for elimination.

· Use positive reinforcement:

o  Praise and reward your dog immediately after they eliminate outside.

o Use treats and enthusiastic verbal praise.

· Supervise closely:

o Keep your dog in sight when indoors.

o Look for signs they need to go (sniffing, circling, and whining).

· Confine when unsupervised:

o Use a crate or small area when you can't watch your dog.

o Ensure the space is just large enough to stand, turn, and lie down.

· Handle accidents properly:

o Don't punish; it can create anxiety about elimination.

o Clean thoroughly with an enzymatic cleaner to remove odours.

· Be consistent and patient:

o Stick to the routine.

o Understand that young puppies have limited bladder control.

· Gradually increase freedom:

o As your dog becomes reliable, slowly increase their access to the house.

 
 

Remember, consistency is key, and the process may take several weeks to months, depending on the dog's age and previous experiences.

Come see why a Canine Companion training partner is the best option for your dog's training needs.
