Exercise and play while potty training your dog

Dogs need exercise.

However, while potty training your dog, exercises and play should be routine. Ideally, you should play with your dog after your dog has eliminated. This is because exercises stimulate dogs to want to eliminate.

If you routinely play with your dog after your dog has finished his business, your dog will even be motivated to do whatever you want him to do so that you will play with him.
