Assistant: How much toilet training does your dog currently know?  And what were you using for it previously?


Human: I am trying to toilet train my dog. How should I go about it?

Assistant: Well, you’ve actually hit on a very common behavior that animals like dogs exhibit, which is called "pooping in the house." It can be very annoying and disruptive. However, there are techniques you can use to train a dog to pee outside and keep its poop in the backyard. Dogs usually need to be reminded to pee out doors quite frequently, but you’ll also want to keep close tabs on the location of any poop, and when your dog does so, reward it, either with praise, toys, or even just a special treat. Make sure that whatever reward you offer, it’s quite satisfying. It’s probably better to reward your dog with only a few treats each day, otherwise they will become disinterested.
