Owning a pet is a fun experience. A dog proves to be a very good companion and is considered to be a man’s best friend. Training your dog can be made as much fun as playing with him. All you need to remember are a few tips and guidelines to train your dog effectively in a short span of time. Potty training your pet dog can be quite annoying and troublesome task. Don’t worry!
The best way to begin your pet’s potty training is by keeping a careful eye on him. Remember, the trick is to catch your pet red-handed while relieving himself inside the house. Once you catch him, scold him then and there while he continues the act. If you get angry at the dog, when you find the evidence of his misdoing, the dog will not understand the reason for your annoyance. Your anger may confuse your dog and may lead to retaliation. Hence, it is very crucial to scold your dog while you see him urinating or defecating. A word of caution – to not spank or hit your dog; just show your displeasure by being firm with him.
After being firm with your dog, guide your pet outside the house and show him the right place to relieve himself. Ensure that you guide him towards the right location; otherwise you may end up with a messy garden or complaints from the neighbours.
