Two of the things that you will have to get in the habit of exercising is will and patience. These are needed along with consistency to get positive results when you are house training a dog. Even though you will not be able to watch your dog around the clock, there are effective ways you can send a positive message to them to stop wetting the floor when you are not present. Oops, there the dog goes again, wetting the floor. When dogs are puppies, the poor things have not developed any bladder or bowel control. They will develop this during their development stages and with time. The first step in house training a dog is to enclose them in a specified area that is floored with newspapers, their play toys, and their bed. Also don't forget the water and food. I assure you when the dog has to let it go, it will not be in the food or water. It typically will not be where they sleep. On the toys, yes, maybe they will let loose on them. Using newspapers in the confined area will be an important step in training your dog. Regardless of where they go, they will do it on the newspapers. Eventually, they will make an out of the way spot in an area away from the things they enjoy. You're off to a very good start and the dog is learning. Once you have identified the dog is picky about where they do it in their confined area, it's time for the next step. Put paper around the house. When the dog has freedom in the house and goes to the bathroom on the floor, put his nose in the vicinity of it and take him to the paper on the floor. The dog is sensitive to the smell. If you practice this process with consistency, the dog will soon catch on and before you know it he will use the paper instead. Over time the dog will go to the paper around the house when they have to do it. When they do be sure to get excited and congratulate them for a job well done. Go a step further and put papers in different locations and show the dog where they are at. If the dog continues using the paper in the new locations, you have accomplished the first steps in house training a dog. It is that easy. The final stage in training is to teach your dog how to go potty outside instead of inside. This is relatively easy based on the fact that dogs love to go outside and sniff around. Begin by placing papers near the doors leading to the back of your house. At this time, the dog is trained to use the paper. When he uses the paper as you have done such a good job training him to do, put their nose near it and point to the door. Then open the door and let him run out and play. By consistently repeating this process, your dog will soon catch on and will begin scratching the door when it is time to go potty.
