GO PEE - Take your dog to a marked spot outside, continually say "Go Pee" in the moment as they are squatting down/lifting their leg and doing their business, and then ENORMOUS praise in a really sweet and playful intonation. My favorite phrase is "You're peeing outside, just like the big girls!".
Of course, we haven't gotten this one down 100% by any stretch yet, lol. But Cook generally does make an effort to pee or poop when I give the command, though occasionally she'll squat when she doesn't have to go, I guess because she thinks it'll get her the huge praise.
