ok so this is a long story. my family and i adopted my dog keera almost 2 years ago. we were told that she would do best with another dog to help with her house training. fortunately we already had another dog. things seemed to be going well. keera would have an accident every once in a blue moon. then, unfortunately we had to get rid of our other dog. now keera has accidents all the time in the dining room where she use to have accidents. its too the point where keera wont even leave the deck to go in the grass unless its an emeergency. it got to the point where she pooped right in front of my mom in her bathroom! since i am the one that mainly takes care of keera. my parents are saying that this is the last draw and i need to do something about her problem. also, my mom wants another dog because keera barely barks anymore or anything anymore. anyways, i need help or i will loose my dog. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!

I am looking to purchase a dog, but I want to know what dog would be the smartest or the easiest breed to potty train?

I have a terrier and he always pees on my moms favorite rug. She’s always getting so mad at him and not letting him inside any more. She says I need to potty train him myself, but I don’t know how! Please help!

If you have recently gotten a new puppy, you may be experiencing some difficulties getting it to be potty trained. Animals, much like humans, are born with the natural instinct to go to the bathroom at will. It is a primal urge within all of us that we must learn to control. When we’re first born, we have little to no bladder control. Because of this, diapers were created. Here are some helpful hints to potty train a puppy.

We start out each day with a fresh diaper and go from there. Many puppy owners also use this method to assist them in training their new pet to control their bladder and eliminate large messes. You can approach this task in several ways. One of the most successful seems to be one which involves crating.

i answered a question in detail, then received an email in my personal box on ‘How to Train you Pup” or some similar jargon. Anyone else getting spam like this?

You might not believe it, however , you could teach puppies and older dogs
to go to the bathroom on command. Many pups can hear phrases which are repeated and connect them with what you need them to do. For example, when your pup is outdoors relieving him or herself, say “go potty.”

If you do this enough, the pup will quickly associate the phrase ‘go potty’ with relieving him or herself. This will train the puppy to go potty upon command. Word association is actually one of the best ways to train your pup.

Im 13 and I tried to potty train my dog but he peed where I wanted him to pee for only 1 week now hes starting to pee everywhere again. I need a trainer that is good at potty training dogs.

The family dog is a year and two months old. Alot of times she still goes potty in the house. How do we get the dog to go outside all the time? It would save work to clean carpets and get rid of the stink for good. I always try to enforce dicipline saying no or bad whatnot. How can this be enforced as a family thing?

One of the first things that a puppy must learn is its name, but puppies potty training has to be the next most important.  The puppy’s bodily functions truly do affect your life and it needs to be taught the appropriate place to relieve itself.  This can be an easy task if you know what you are doing, but it can be just as difficult if you do not.

As with children, puppies need to mature or grow mentally and physically before they have control over their bodily functions.  Young puppies need to develop their muscles for bladder control and their brains so that they can be trained.  Puppies younger than 12 weeks old will be difficult to train. although this is not impossible.  As they grow older it takes less time for puppies potty training because of their development.  A puppy of six months old might take only a few days to train.
