If your dog is already an adult then it will be hard to let him undergo dog potty training. The suggested time to do dog potty training is when your dog is still a very young puppy -8 months old to be exact. Adult dogs cannot learn new things so it would be better for dog owners to start their dogs early when it comes to being housebroken.

The first rule to remember is once your dog eat, you would only have to wait for 15 minutes before it makes that food into poop and that goes the same way with water -only this time it’s pee. Your job as his or her owner is to get your dog do his or her business where you want it and not cleaning up poop all your dog’s life.

The second rule for dog potty training is to take your dog out in the yard once the two of you are awake in the morning. Do this right after breakfast or any meal as well. Do this after your dog’s nap as well and if you give your pet a sizeable snack, wait for 15 to 20 minutes and then go out to the yard again. Before bedtime, take your dog out as well and if in any case he or she whimpers during the night -go to the yard.

Rule number 3 is to cheer your puppy when he finally produces poop. Do this when he poops in the right place, your happy voice will let your dog know that you are happy in seeing him do this. Once your dog sees you are happy, he will do it over and over and over again.

Rule 4 is to let your dog eat when you have the time to take a walk. When it comes to water intake for your doggie, control his water intake when he is still untrained but be sure to have a lot of time in your hands because dogs need to be hydrated too.

This however could be rather problematic during dry climate so try to have him or her learn how to tell you that he or she is about to go. Making your dog learn how to ring a bell when he or she has to pee is a good way. What you need to do is before you take your dog to the yard for his or her pee time; make him or her ring a bell first. This will be ingrained in your dog’s mind all his doggie life.

The fifth rule and the hardest one is to quietly clean up your dog’s poop or pee when he or she did the business in a “prohibited” area. Ignore your dog. Do not punish your dog or yell at your dog because he or she will not be able to understand that you are frustrated. In fact, your dog will only be amused and slightly confused in the process.

Rule number 6 is to keep your dog with you wherever you go. This will prevent poop and pee accidents. Remember that this will also help you sustain a healthy relationship with your dog. Have fun with the dog potty training!
