when you catch your dog going potty in the house, you don't hit them, don't scream, don't flip out. just pick them up (if theyre small) say NO in a very firm voice (not yelling) and take them to the proper place where they are supposed to go. positive re-inforcement works better than flipping out every time your dog has an accident. (this last party was directed to no one imperticular..just in general) |
And if you believe its not good to put a dogs nose up to the mess, then don't do it. I will train my dog however I want to, and I will LET you train your dog however you want too. None of my dogs have EVER EVER EVER thought that because I showed them their mess and said "No" that I meant they can't go to the bathroom, they understood that it meant to NOT go in the house, of course this is also with other potty training techniques like praising them when they do go outside, and after they eat taking them outside until they go and not letting them back in until they go. If this has worked with my dogs, I'm sure it has worked for others, therefore I don't appreciate you telling me it won't work.
