If you would like to find out more about my services, you can visit my website at canineheadstart.com. So we are going to be talking here about rewarding your dog for going to the bathroom outside. I’ve brought the puppy out here on a leash. Actually I am going to take her off the leash. As you can see I’ve got this little area fenced in for the puppy and that way I can take the puppy off leash and I can put her on cue. So I’ve taught her as a baby a cue for going pee so I can say, Raven hace pichi, let’s go. This way. Hace pichi. Of course, she is trying to find other things to amuse herself with. She is a slightly older puppy if she were a 2, 3 or 4 month old puppy she would probably have to go to pee as soon as she came outside. Raven, let’s go. This way. This way. Puppy. Good girl. When your puppy does go pee, good girl Raven, what a good puppy. Good job. Good pee. Praise her a lot. Okay, let’s go and then you can let her go play even if she wants to. Okay, go find your brother Raven. Good job. "
