What I also did with Coco, if you want to call it a trick, is that every 20 min. I took her to her puppy pad (because pups have small bladders) and I would repeat the words "DO YOUR BUSINESS" until she went. That way she associated those words with her pee pee or poo, which then lead to a treat. She was potty trained within less than 3 weeks of me having her. Just take her to her pad and don't let her leave until she goes. That way she understands what you expect of her, when she is on the pad. Once she pees/poops, really get excited, give her a treat and play with her. So she knows that once she gives you what you want, she gets what she wants. |
