Sasha is outdoor trained. When I first got her, it was in December when I got to take her home and it was too cold for me to be taking her outside to potty. The breeder was training her puppies to potty on newspaper so I used that technique for awhile. I then resorted to pee pads once she began tearing up the newspaper. That worked for awhile but like with the newspaper, she began tearing those up to. By this time, it was starting to warm up outside so I began outside training. It took a long time, pretty much a year to be honest before she was completely house trained. She would go to the door but wouldn't bark or let anyone know that she was there so she'd always have an accident right in front of the door. That's when I read about the bell training method. I gave it a shot and she got it down packed in only a few days. I was completely shocked at how quickly she caught on. |
