The Dog Training Elite Potty Training Method
There are many ways and opinions on how to house train a puppy. Many won't yield good results or take forever to work. The Dog Training Elite potty training method utilizes classical conditioning or the "Pavlovian" approach to obtain relatively quick, positive results.
Classical conditioning involves a lot of puppy treats and positive reinforcement. When a dog is “classically conditioned,” they will be trained to have an automatic reflex to a command. When you say “sit,” your dog will sit without thinking about it. Our
training method
does not include any punishment or harm for unwanted behavior. We believe that positive training produces positive and happy dogs that become lifelong pals.
House Training Tips
Along with the help of the professionals at Dog Training Elite, there are a few key things to know that will help you house train your new puppy. Potty training a puppy requires a lot, so here are a few things to help you get started:
Crate Train
Crate and house training
go hand–in–hand. Utilizing a crate alongside potty training will make the process easier and smoother.
Create a Schedule
With the help of a Dog Training Elite trainer, creating a potty schedule that works for you and your pup will make training more manageable and predictable.
Watch Their Diet
Knowing what and how much your puppy is eating will help you know when they need to relieve themselves. Be sure to monitor and control how much they eat and drink so your puppy can stay healthy and happy through the training program.
Maintain Supervision
Keeping an eye on your new puppy as you potty train them is essential to learn their potty cues and avoid accidents.
Have Patience
This last tip is also the most important. Potty training a puppy takes a lot of time and work, so you will need to be prepared with plenty of patience for your new little puppy as they learn this new skill. It will be worth it!
