 Potty Training - Use the same phrase for going "Poo" or "Pee"?
So I try to watch my dog like a hawk when he's roaming around the house. i also partially Crate and Play Pen train him when I'm away or busy during the day.
Anyways he's pretty good when he's at my house and will poop or pee about 75% of the time on the pad and 25% of the time around or in the corners of my apartment.
What I try to do is say "Go Potty" over and over again in a calm fashion as he is pooping OR peeing on the pad. Then I follow it instantly with praise once he is finished and usually a treat.
Should I be using the same word "Go Potty" for both Pee and Poo?
It's quite frustrating when he seems to forget where to go and he will sometimes Pee on the pad then go poop a few minutes later in the corner even when I'm watching him. Or vice versa (poop on a pad then Pee in the corner usually a different corner because I always clean up really well)
(Frustrated) thanks |
