5 Puppy House Training Tips EVERY Dog Owner Needs

will these steps still work with an older dog of 1-2 yrs old who's been rescued and never house trained?

My 5 month old puppies have been getting really good about toilet training but last night I left them and went for a bath. They had been allowed into the garden beforehand and they are crate trained so have control of their toileting but after my bath, probably an hour after I left them, they had gone to the toilet on the living room carpet. I don't know if it was a mistake or separation anxiety. Any thoughts anyone?

My dog is potty trained down stairs but whenever he’s up stairs he wants to go pee or poop up there can someone help me figure out why

Thank you so much! Your video are truly helpful. Sending love ❤️ from Dallas.

I’m struggling. I got 2 puppies from a family that just had them going in pads in the house in a kiddie pen. Honestly don’t know if they ever went outside before I got them. They will go outside for me and we do the whole celebration then 10 mins later pee in my kitchen

Such great puppy potty training tips! Sending love and warm greetings from Missouri.

What does "give them the opportunity" mean? I put her in the right spot and she just runs off. How do you keep her there to go toilet?

Mine is passing me off damn bad. It's been 2 damn months and it's Fn horrible.

I keep taking my puppy outside and will stay outside for about 30 mins or more, and she will wait til we come back in... EVERYTIME. Please, someone help. I'm losing my mind.

When do you or the dog sleep if every hour on the hour? You mention “after a nap” but when is a nap if every hour on the hour? Seems a conflicting message which would be great to clarify

My dog ​​tolerates when we go for a walk and when we come home he does everything . The puppy is 4 months old and he has never peeed or pooped outside 😢

I just adopted a 3 year old German Shepherd/ Yellow lab mix, he has accidents when he gets excited or scared. When we wake up in the morning, as I walking him to the door to go out, he tries to jump up and he pees a little, same thing when getting home from work. What can I do? He also won’t go potty in the backyard, only on walks.

Do you give out to them when they make a mistake ?

I take my havanese 13 weeks old every half hour ,but she will go every 10 minutes at times,my mat was just about flooting out the door .I praise her a
every time ,but many accidents during the day ,

I would love to see a video about excitement- or submissive peeing, als this is another facet of the toilet training you're treating in this video.

My pittie spent 2 1/2 years out of his 3 years in a shelter kennel in his own feces. Toilet training has been SO hard. He also urine marks because he wasn't neutered until 3

When my wife got our 8 week old shiba puppy, I slept on the couch for a few weeks and took him out almost every 30 minutes, I think I went a little overboard because he sits by the front door now when he doesn’t need to go, I just wait till he whines till I let him out haha

Thanks Will!

I have a couple questions. See I’m a truck driver, I can’t exactly stop every hour, and I try to take my dog out every time I stop. But I’ll have time where I stop to check in and I have to get out of the truck and my dog will go potty in the 2 mins I’m gone. And my sleeper and cab space is too small for a crate. Are there any special tips or advice you can give me so we can get this right?

My pup went pee outside and literally came inside and peed again. Dang.

What about a problem puppy that gives no warning, and just darts, & goes on the floor?
We can't seem to break her of biting, either, any useful tips?

One last thing, she gets mad, & goes into attack mode when she's not given what she wants, & when she gets picked up. How do we end that behavior?

My pup is 15 weeks cause when I got him he was paws off ground due to not having all the shots. He learned to go on the wee pad very quickly but now that he can go outside he’s just not wanting to go. I know it’s a process and patience lol. I take him out first thing in the morning and he won’t go. I put him back in his crate and wait another 30min-1hr. I take him back out and still nothing. I don’t want him to keep holding it in so I ended up letting him go again on the wee wee pad.

I really don’t know what else to do — for context I don’t have my own yard or anything. I tried bringing out a wee wee pad (used and new) and still doesn’t want to go. Please help with some advice 🙏🏽

Awesome Will 👍

i have two 1yr old pups. I have been really bad with training and need help. one dong is a shep/husky and one is a lab/husky. how do I keep them from running off and walk together. HELP

I just discovered the channel... I can confidently say this is the realest Canine channel

My 1-1/2 year old female pitt wakes us up at 4:00 AM to let us know she just shit in the floor....confused dog!

I feel like I’ve got there with my puppy, she goes outside, I’m rewarding her, saying Yes, making a fuss. However, when it’s raining no matter what I cannot get her to go outside. I stand in the rain show her, it’s all okay. Make a fuss when she’s out. But she never stays out for long and then goes inside to wee/poo. Help!!

You would make an amazing horse trainer too! You're a bloody champion!

One of my puppies does the sniffing and circles. One just squats and goes like he has a Chinese bladder.

We adopted a 14wk Am Bully and thought he was toilet trained because he always did it outside. Turns out if the external doors are shut he doesn't ask to go out and just does it at a door, any door. We are always home but still have not been able to catch him in the act to correct quickly enough. I'm now setting hourly alarms and will take him to the same spot every time.

Just got a barely 8 weeks old akita inu and even tho he is mostly an angel when it come to basic behavior (for a curious puppy nway) AND already only poop outside (he seem very proud of it somehow 🤣) when it come to number 1 I never tought such small things would need to leak so much. The alarms every hours really seem to have reduced his bad habbit of just doing it randomly but the little bugger just wont ask for the door even tho he LOVE going outside.

How do I get him to tell me he needs to go out toilet , as when door is closed he go for wee by the door n not cry or anythink to go out

My puppy doesn't care about any type of reward when outside...

I am crate training mine and she is going outside. but she pees in the kennel while I am at work. How do I get her to stop. I let her out before I leave and I go home at lunch and she has peed in the crate. she doesnt seem to mind being in it and I can't figure out how to get her to stop. the longest she stays in there is around 4.5 hrs. Pit breed and 6 months old.

I have a 14yo female golden retriever & a recently owner surrendered adoption of an 18 month female chocolate lab. Golden is great no issues, the lab we are working through videos. She came potty & crate trained along with a few other limited commands which also working on and she is picking up on training quickly. The problem is I have a friend’s house 7mo female husky whom uses a doggy doorbell which I taught her and is housebroken at her home, however EVERY time she comes to my house, she uses potty outside but within 15 minutes and continued through her visit she pees on my GR bed or the floor and also poops in the house. We close the bedroom door so she can’t get in there but she will stop playing walk to a specific spot and potty. No warning and no tells. I’m at a loss how to fix this. The friend whom is here the whole visit as he has none of this from her at his home where he has 3 little designer dogs who do pee in his house. Any suggestions for the husky at my house is greatly appreciated. Recently I cleaned up her accident and put it in a spare crate with her, I’ve cleaned it up and taken all accidents outside and told her the potty command. I’ve told her no when we do catch her and scoop her up to finish outside. Yesterday day in 5 hours she had 6 accidents. We know it’s her bc poop is much smaller than my girls and because she squats and walks/waddles while peeing. I use odor neutralizing spray to clean up the hardwoods. Today out of desperation I cleaned it up. And then wrapped the tied and knotted poop bag on her collar and after that there were no more accidents on Sunday. Thank you in advance for your advice and suggestions

My now 2.5 year old GSD pees and poops on command. Its so cool.

We have rescued a 10mth old puppy, he is underweight, & before I took him in he had spent all young life in a flat & hadn't seen grass. He is used to puppy pads. In the 2 days we have had him we have had some success & he has had 2 wees outside & 4 💩...Will my idea of gradually moving the pad closer to the backdoor, then outside work??

Hi will watches all of your videos and I have a question that none seem to answer not even on your website

I have a 20 week old french bulldog and she is toilet trained to go on puppy pads she will only go on the floor if there’s no puppy pad around

Also I live in an apartment on the top floor no garden or I believe she would of already been trained to go outside in a garden

What do you recommend me to do is my only option to keep her on puppy pads now

Or how can I now change her from puppy pads to go outside I will still go down on the hour every hour if it will work or am I past the point of no return now haha ?

Hope to get a reply mate I’ve taught her how to sit and lay down in french and English after watching your videos thought it was a hilarious idea by yourself 👍😂

It feels good to know I was doing the right things

My 6 month old puppy growls at people, dogs and bicycles. I have tried different techniques, blocking his view, rewarding he she does not growl etc but a month later nothing is working. Any advice please?

Hey, looking into getting a golden retriever gall to train as my service dog. But I'm a bit lost in where to start, it's a very overwhelming thing to consider and it's a bit of a far cry for help I guess but it would be well appreciated. I'm trying to come up with a bit of a training guide for the first few weeks. I will be getting the pup at 8-12 weeks

How exactly does the end goal of "fully potty trained" looks like? How often do you go out after one year with this puppy?

Sorry i have soo many questions

If i am using their food as treats throughout the day for training should i be reducing that from their daily intake of two or three times a day so as to avoid over feeding them

In a previous comment i ask about a video for training them to sit and accept cleaning their teeth but have you done a video for introducing them to the car so it is a less traumatic event

Really enjoting the channels keep up the good work

My pup has a dog door. She is still too small for me to want to leave the door open for her. I don’t want her to get out of the yard. So I basically have been doing the puppy pad & take her outside. The 1 hour timer is a great help. I must say there is as much training for me as there is for her. Been 20 years since I had a pup. I forgot some of the training things. Thanks for videos. I love the way you train with rewards and not beating.

My dog likes to lay with me at night and he has no accidents but the moment I get up and that wakes him it’s a race between me and him

Love the videos. Would be interested in your suggestions on how to keep a dog - 1 year old - from chewing on their blanket in their crate. I have tried bones in the cage already. Other than this they are great. Also, suggestions on how to handle having two litter-mates. I - because I am stupid - could not decide between two pups in a litter so I got them both. They are a year old and doing well for the most part, but would love to hear your thoughts on how to handle training litter-mates. Anyway, keep up the great videos!

found this channel after the recent passing of my dog. I decided a while back the next puppy would be a great dane and while i wont be ready till after christmas i want to start getting my research in now and i feel i have learned a lot just gettingthrough these videos. Great job

I havent found it yet but have you done a video on training a dog on getting them into a routine where cleaning their teeth doesnt turn into a scene from Jaws. Chewie & Solo never bit but they REALLY didnt like brushing their teeth
