Housebreaking is required for all dog owners, even if your pet is primarily an outdoors dog. Even if your dog is rarely indoors, it's absolutely mandatory for him or her to understand the difference between your home and the yard. Although it can be frustrating, it's worth the time to train your dog or puppy to only urinate or defecate outdoors, since it not only keeps you from cleaning up messes, it helps your pet understand who the boss is, and how to behave and maintain indoor privileges. There are a variety of methods for housebreaking dogs, and wide array of approaches to take, but there are undoubtedly a few hard and fast rules and techniques that tend to prove effective across breeds.
In this free video clip series, our expert will give you tips, pointers, techniques and best methods for housebreaking your dog or puppy. Learn the basic premise of potty training your pet, how to manage food and water intake during the training process, the benefits of using a crate, and how to encourage your dog to continue once you've found success. Using positive reinforcement and an assortment of other tips, your dog or puppy will be housebroken in no time!
