House Training Your Dog

Filed under Dogs

One of the most frustrating parts of animal ownership is making sure they develop good habits when it comes to when and where they eliminate. Dogs are, above all else, animals. If they are going to learn to be house trained, then their owners will have to firm and consistent with both their dog’s schedule and their rewards.

The first thing an owner needs to realize is that they’re also teaching themselves a routine, not just teaching the dog. Even a well trained dog needs to be taken outside several times a day. Early in the morning and right before bed are both good places to start. Other times to take or send the dog outside include after meals and after playtime.

If possible, the owner should wait outside with the dog and watch for him to go. Then, the owner should tell the dog how they well they did that using whatever word they want to dog to associate with elimination.

Dogs do not like to eliminate where they eat or sleep. Putting their food bowl in an area where your dog has had accidents in the past might help keep them from going there again in the future. Dogs are creatures of habits and instincts, so hopefully the instinct not to eliminate near food will override the habit of eliminating in the area.

Also, limiting the area where the dog is allowed to live and play can keep him from making messes. Often owners find they have to block off the second floor of a home or the hallway leading to the bedrooms of the house. Rooms that are too far from a dogs regular living space feel no different that outdoors to him.

Remember, consistency is key when you’re hoping to house train your dog.
