Potty Training Basics

First of all, potty training is possible!

Potty training is one of the most widely asked question among new dogs and puppies owners. The good news is it is potty training full grown dogs is the same as potty training young puppies. This website will tell you how to potty train your dog or puppy.

Potty training or housebreaking puppies (housebreaking is a term some people prefer to potty training) is all about giving the dogs positive reinforcement and repeatedly showing the dogs the right things to do. The old method of 'rubbing the dogs' nose in it' infrequently works. Positive reinforcements make potty training for most dogs less painful for both dogs owners and the dogs themselves.

Some dog breeds are easier to potty train than others. However, successful potty training is possible for all dog breeds. Small dog breeds are sometimes harder to potty train but nevertheless it is still possible. Bichon Frise, for example, is known to be harder to potty train than many dogs. But, through positive reinforcements, potty training a Bichon is possible. 

Failed potty training is one of the most common reason many dogs or puppies owners surrender their pets to the shelters or humane societies.
