what do you say when you take them out to potty?? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I just say "lets go potty" and then when we are outside I say "go potty" or "go poops". I'm going to start trying the bell thing to see if she can tell me instead of me telling her!

I say, "do your business" then while he's in the middle, I say happily, "Great Business!!" Lately, I'll say, lift your leg, and he does, mid-stream, but I think THAT is a coincidence. That way, when I have to check in with my husband or son, I just ask them -- Did Maxwell do major business or just minor business? (They don't like to hear Poop and pee pee words). So I can get a "business report" without the eye rolls.

We use "better go now?" every time they come over sit at my feet they wait for me to ask the magical question . By the way they tell me yes when they get up and start doing the potty dance for no's they just stare blankly at me like nope guess again .

LOL........ everyone else has kinda "cutsie" things to say. I pretty much say it like it is............ and since I let 2 furkids out at a time.... I have to use both words so they have the option....... It goes...."Ok guys, POOP & PEE"!!!! I am sure the neighbors can hear me...... and probably think I am a goofball.
