Someone asked how you use them. Be aware that they are kind of loud...if you jangle them too hard. both my dogs were a little scared of them at first because when I took them out of the package I showed them, and jangled them. They were surprised by the sound and went running!

After that we just hung them on the door and each time we went out, we said, Do you want to go potty? ring the bell... and we would ring it gently. After a week or so, we asked them to just touch it with their noses... Carson did. Now he pushes them and they make a little jangle. He doesn't find the bells and jangle them to tell us he needs to go out yet. But it's a-comin'! yay! It would be better if the outside door was where we always hang out, but we are usually upstairs. I hung a separate set upstairs, and want to train him to jangle that to tell us, but I don't know if it will work, since they aren't attached to the door that leads outside.
