I believe that the vast majority of dog owners feed their dogs indoors; at the same time, many friends take their dogs home when they are several months old. If this is the case above, here’s how to teach you the “Indoor Potty Training Method for Dogs”:

How to train a dog to go to the toilet indoors?

1. First determine a place for the puppy to go to the toilet. You can choose to place it in a place at home that is easier to clean, such as the toilet, bathroom, corner of the living room or balcony. Then cover the designated place where the dog urinates with newspapers and wait for the dog to eat.

2. 10-20 minutes after feeding or after activities - this is the golden period of dog toilet training - the dog owner can gently guide the dog to the toilet, then close the door and let it sit on the floor covered with newspapers. Move within the space and continue to use words to encourage it to urinate and defecate.

3. Once the dog has the intention to urinate or defecate, please do not disturb it physically, but give verbal rewards as soon as possible. Such as "Awesome!" or "Good!"

4. Because dogs are not so smart, they will defecate and urinate directly on the newspaper for the first time---so sometimes you need to help the dog defecate on one of the newspapers. You can wait a little longer. As long as the dog urinates and defecates, it will be considered a successful first time!

5. When it finishes excreting on the newspaper, please continue to encourage it softly. At this time, you can stroke its head and back with your hands. The purpose is to make the dog like this behavior pattern, generate memory, and be willing to repeat this behavior.

6. During the training period, if the dog can defecate on newspapers, you can gradually reduce the number of newspapers, starting with 4-5, slowly reducing to 2-3, and finally reducing the number of newspapers to one. The dog will still go to the toilet in that position, which is basically ok.

7. Finally, the dog should try to repeat the above training procedures at a fixed time every day. In this way, the dog will gradually take the initiative to go to the toilet and defecate in the area of ​​the newspaper.

Key points for indoor toilet training for dogs:

1. The way of encouragement is to prompt some common passwords, such as "pull daddy", etc. Do not change back and forth. This allows the dog to memorize these commands together during toilet training.

2. In the early stage of training, after the dog has urinated and defecated, do not take away the newspapers stained with urine and feces immediately, so that it can have enough time to memorize the relationship between the location and the smell of defecation. Use smell to help remember results and learn them faster.
