How to housetrain your dog?

brainstorming:
puppy, dog, hard work, steps, dedication, patience, tricks, food, time, commitment, rolling, barking.

If you want to teach your dog that going in the house is unacceptable. The first thing you need to is to understand his behavior. If he is going inside the house, you need to punish him while he is in the act, cause if you wait, he will get confused. Then you need to do a schedule. You have to let him know the hours when he will eat & when you will take him out.

The first time you get your dog to your house you need to show it everything inside & after it has been introduced to the house, you must take it out to relieve himself. Everytime your dog is doing a good behaviour you must give him a prize to let him know. Be consistent using one single command  only with the process of  house braking so your dog learn to associate his acts.

If a lot of people lives with you & your dog, you must involve them in the house training. The closer everyone sticks to the plan, the faster the training will progress.  You need to clean up very well every accidents, cause if your dog recognize the smell of his own urine, they will continue doing it in the same spot. This is the reason why you should have a designated area outside.

Let your dog be free in the house with supervision at first for longer periods, until you're sure he will ask to go out when he has to go. This step will not take more than two weeks.
