Don't Let Your House be the dogs bathroom - Dog House Training Done Right

So you have a new pet and are starting to think about how you plan to successfully accomplish dog house training, well good for you! Dog house breaking is critical if you want to have a pet that will be happy and contented. Most dogs prefer to be with their human (that's you) and will not be very happy living outdoors.

What Is Housetraining?

House training is teaching your dog not to use your house as their personal bathroom.

House breaking using crate training methods makes it much easier for your pet to associate what you want them to do with your positive response. Here are a number of Important Tips for Successful dog house training

TIP #1 Never Scold or Punish your dog. Dogs have few cognitive reasoning skills, if any. This means that hitting or yelling at your dog will most likely result in confusion for your pet and not correction. So even if you are frustrated, don't ever hit, smack, or abuse your pet either physically or verbally.

TIP#2 Consistent behavior is Important. That's YOUR behavior not your dogs. Both puppies and adult dogs respond much more positively to a consistent schedule than to a hit and miss one. Know your pups schedule and use it to your advantage. Do they get up and prefer to eat right away? If so, right after eating, take them outside to urinate.
