Confused Potty training older dogs Part 2

If you want to train them to give you a sign they have to go out, many people here use bells on the door. When you start to use the bells ring them yourself and say 'potty outside' or whatever right before you open the door to go out to potty. then start picking up their paw and hitting the bells to go potty. soon they will start going to the door to hit the bells themselves to let you know they have to potty.

i hope some of this helps you out.[/QUOTE]

Well so far so good. Freyja has been doing 90% of her poops and pees outside. I bought some bells at the craft store so that she can signal but...Freyja is terrified of the sound of the bells!! Any other way to teach her to signal us?
