"First off, that's disgusting." I love it.

Bottom line is if you don’t have time to train your dog then don’t get one

All I did was take mine out whenever he woke up as a puppy and he never pooped or peed inside ever

We had a dog crap on the floor. My Husband made the dog watch as he picked it up with a plastic bag. Then he took poop and pup outside and Dad dumped the poo on the ground. The dog not only didn’t poo in the house anymore,he didn’t poo in the yard. He went in the woods, like the pope. True gentleman. He did it for 15 years. Shout Out to Scruffy!

When I get a new pup this is the routine I apply. Eat go outside Drink go outside Play go outside Sleep go outside 2 hours past go outside Even at night ! So far I trained every dog I had in less then 3 days to go outside For every puppy I had i take 2 weeks off

Potty training 101- if you can't see the dog, you are in the wrong. Keep eyes on pup at all times!! They have small bladders and cannot hold it long. I would keep mine from free range water until potty trained, I would give drinks throughout the day, now I know within 10 min, we need to go outside to go potty. Take treats (not cheap ones, they cause stomach issues, not something you need while potty training!) Don't let them play, keep saying, "go potty, as soon as they do, "good puppy!!! Treat, pick up, back in the house. Now they are understanding the word "potty" No puppy pads! No food or water period after a certain time every evening, go out before bed No matter what time they last ate or drank. Pups sleep alot, as soon as they wake up, you say "let's go potty" out you go. Bottom line. Eyes on puppy ALL the time, they will catch on, but they can't learn if you aren't teaching!

correct way - AS SOON as you see them trying to go, SAY NOTHING, and lead them outside. Stand there. Say nothing. When they finally pee/poo, "GOOD PEE/POOP!!!!" If your dog is anywhere close to "smart," they'll pick it up in a few days.

Beautiful dog!! ❤❤ I've tried to explain this to many people! Do NOT do that, they have NO IDEA what they have done! 😥

Ouch, i needed to hear that. Ive only done it once or twice, thank you for letting me know this is bs, just want my doggo to be well and care for him the right way

That’s right, pay attention and don’t leave puppies for long periods of time in their own. You are such a great trainer. I’m learning so much for your channel.

I would like to add that rubbing your dogs nose in it also teaches the dog not to do their business in front of you. That’s why they will sneak off and do their business when your not around.,

You are the MAN !

When I drop one behind the couch, I blame the dog as well.

Well said and exactly right! 😮

yes sticking their face in their mess is 100% wrong. we showed them their mess and took them to the door and threw it outside. since then they always associate the door with where to go potty. they paw at the door and whimper. ok they gotta go . open the door and let them go. or put them on a leash and walk them.

All you experts saying he's wrong probably can't get your dog to sit for more than 5 seconds without a treat in their face

Yes, yes, brilliant

You’re an excellent teacher…

" Listen up dodo heads"😂😂😂

Thanks for the lesson.

Well Said Garret!

Alright, first time owner and honestly in my family none of us ever had any idea on how to train a dog, so sorry if I'm saying something wrong (we found him thrown away next to the garbage bin when he was like couple weeks old, we had good intentions but no know-how, we just knew we couldn't leave him there). So, yeah, he used to pee and poo in the house, my mom yelled at him a lot and he was very sad about it. So what I did was take a napkin, dip it into the puddle, and leave it outside in the garden. Then I bought him there and let him sniff the napkin a couple times throughout the day, telling him that *that* was ok, and whenever he peed in that area I would pet him. This was my poor illiterate man's way of showing that he had an area to do his things and it was ok, while doing it in the house was not. Don't know if it was a fluke or something, but it worked almost immediately. 😂

I don’t appreciate being called a doe doe head

Crate training helped me with potty training a lot. My puppy never had major issues with doing his stinky business on the training pad, but once he started to spend nights in crate he understood the concept of holding it. 1.5 weeks with crate and I removed pads - no incidents for 2 months!

I've always wondered if that method of training actually sabotages the training by associating going to the bathroom with punishment, therefore causing the dog to not want to go out and use it in fear of said punishment, ultimately leading to it releasing in the house when it can't hold it anymore. More so in the beginning phases with younger pups

As soon as I got my rescue staffy, brought him straight to my backyard and played with him till he pooped. Gave him praise as soon as he finished. Next morning as soon as I opened the door he knew where to go and that was our morning routine since then. At times he'd bark to wake me up and I just knew instantly that he had to go. Only time he had to do it inside was when he had diarrhoea. Glad you made a short about this. Be proactive not reactive.

When in doubt, take ‘em out.

I love this guys content haha

i like how your straight to the point no bs

I would like to learn where that short term memory concept comes from. My dog won't go say hi when he does something wrong, chewing shoes, stealing food from the counter, when we are out, and would wait in a corner ears low looking away until we make contact, he definitely knows he did something wrong. He never had issues with potty training, and now he does not chew on shoes anymore and only goes for food if we make it too easy/tempting than it is our fault.

Gorgeous puppy

He is absolutely right

Tbat is a gorgeous dog!😊

Well said thank u.😊❤

Thank you I never thought about this way

THANK YOU!!!

Yes sir ... so true

Thank you!!!

I have said this over and over to my coworkers but because my trained pup passed and they haven't seen me with a dog they dont believe me so i am saving this and making them hear it from a full time professional (to clarify my mother was a professional trainer for 15 yrs before her illness caught up to her, i grew up with german shepherds)

Oh he is one good looking boy right there 🔥🔥

ABSOLUTELY!!!!! 100% agree

Oh yeah. I know some people that need to hear this. Unfortunately they wouldn't listen anyway 😭

Good info...

I'm astounded by the fact that people still think this works. It's like you said, dogs live in the moment. Scolding them after the fact only confuses them and potentially makes them fearful of you.

I don't claim to know how to train a puppy but I brought my 8 week old pup home and 10 minutes later I cought him in the act.i grabbed him and showed him what he did and said that's bad and put him out side. That was the one time he has pee in the house. He sits by the door when he wants out.

Unfortunately, I have a dog that can't be potty trained because she's got nerve damage from a coyote attack. My other dog I tried to potty train but without success

Never told my pup of for it unless ive caught them doing it. Also only ever been a stern “no” then take them outside. Reward base training will always work best

I don’t scold my puppy for going potty inside, I simply clean it, and when he goes outside I praise him! It’s worked very good, he is 7 weeks and has little to no accidents in the house!

Well said

My confusion is that my dog will be very clearly acting guilty over something from several minutes ago, before I ever react to it

I've heard stories like this too... Ignorance can be so annoying sometimes. 🙈🤣

First few weeks with a new pup, I grab a blanket and sleep on the floor with them. When they get up, I get up and we go outside together. Beds and couch is off limits forever (for the dog). I still have naps on the floor though. ✌🏽😎

Beautiful Corso!!!!

Yes!! I'm currently training my great pyrenees puppy to ring the bell to potty outside. She's on week 4 and doing awesome. Lots of praise and treats!

What about the fact that I came home and my dog was already in her cage (which she only goes in if she’s in trouble) I look around the house and find a puddle of pee (no I didn’t rub her nose in it) but as soon as I walked through the door I seen her in her cage and she was looking up at me which she does when she knows she did something wrong. The point of me saying this is that she punished herself and she was in there for more than 10 minutes before I got home

Good point

Amen bro!

Crate train and give your dog a potty schedule. make sure your dog has plenty of opportunities to go outside!

My dog just learned quickly because I would piss outside too.

My dog was half staff half pit and he peed on the kitchen floor once in his life when I first got him about 5 week old. Literally said no and cleaned it up, went took him in the back yard a peed on the floor in a gravel area. Did that for a couple of days every time I needed a wee and he copied me 🤷‍♂️

I fully agree. Dogs don't want to go to the bathroom in their own den. Take him out for more yard time.

Dawg was like ayo why you grab me like that 😂

I was on the road when i got my GSD. She used potty pads in hotels, i had a crate for when we went to sleep and with the use of treats she was potty trained so fast as a puppy. She only had to endure hotels for a week, we got back home and she was welcomed to a huge back yard. Absolutely beautiful Black GSD. She is so smart, she even let me know one time she had to go outside and throw up. Only time i saw her get sick, but she didn't want to do it in the house.

My dog is all about the pets/praise for good behavior When housebreaking her, she'd get praise and pets for peeing/pooping outside. Ten years later, she still poops on command and occasionally pretends to pee for pets.

Thank you for putting this info out there for folks. It may save many a hapless pup. Another thing that damages your relationship with your dog: yelling at or disciplining him/her when you come home to find your dog has gotten into the garbage. All s/he knows is you came home and yelled at or hit him/her. The dog has *no* idea why you're upset, or why you're dragging them through the trash strewn about the room. Some folks might argue, "oh yes he does, that's why he looks guilty." But your dog isn't looking guilty, he's looking supplicative. His alpha is raging so he's cowering. From your dog's point of view, once you left, the trash (your rejects) it was fair game. In the wild, pack members have to wait to eat until the alpha is done. But once the alpha walks away from the food, it's fair game for the other members, in rank order. You leaving the house signals to your dog that the yummy smelling stuff in the trash is now fair game for him. So he finally gets to partake. Then he is overjoyed when his alpha returns, only to be yelled or swatted - and for no reason the dog can figure out. Trash everywhere isn't fun, but punishing your dog after the fact won't get you what you want, because the dog won't connect your anger to his previous action. It will only damage your dog's trust in you and what he will learn is to fear your return home, because sometimes you start raging after walking in the door. So please don't do it. If you don't want your dog getting into the trash when you leave the house, put it in another room and close the door. Another tip: I sometimes spray any breakfast dishes left in the sink, and my trash can, lightly with Lysol on my way out the door and that is enough to put my dog off of them. One last tip: when angry at your dog, please don't call him over to you then pumish him. From the dog's perspective he came, even though he was afraid of your angry disposition, and then you assaulted him (either verbally or physically). In effect, you punished your dog *for coming to you as directed.* So what can you do? Go to your dog instead. Walk over to wherever s/he is. Don't ever punish your dog for coming when you call, unless you want your dog to learn to stop coming when you call. Canine culture, it's a whole different world, isn't it? Good luck!

💯 percent correct on this

Best advice I tell every new dog owner i know

Yeah that old wives tale still work till this day😂

Excellent advice! Training a dog is 100% about training the human.

I 100% agree that shoving the nose in their poop or pee isn't doing any good. They're puppies (or just dogs who dont know better) and they simply will not understand and will only learn to fear you. HOWEVER. I completely disagree on the memory thing. 99 times out of 100 i can walk into my house and my dog is thrilled to see me, and I'm thrilled to see him too. But every once in a while, I'll come home, excited as usual to see my buddy, and he acts GUILTY as hell. As soon as i see that behavior I start looking for something out of place and i usually find something right away. THEY. KNOW. Especially if they're older. Puppies will probably not understand they've done anything wrong at all. But a mature dog that is well established in their home will absolutely present guilty behavior, completely unprompted by anything I have done in that moment. I hear trainers say this all the time and it drives me absolutely crazy.

Just from your youtube short training videos have helped me with my cane corso puppy. I just want to say keep making heros and a difference, let the dodo heads know its their fault not paying attention to their dogs needs! Lol

Makes perfect sence.

You know man thank you for the good advice all the time. I trained my pups by picking them. Up and take them outside every 2 hours and take a week vacation. 5 to 7 days they are potty trained. 30 days to let them near even being on the bed or a room.

Training my dogs to not poop or pee in the house was the hardest thing, i had to watch them all the time to understand first their body language of when they were going to poop. Then i remember i had to work the "No" fast si they didn't poop or pee again in the same place. And teaching them to going into the garden was a little laborious because i remember carrying grass in a little Bag so they smelled the grass every time they did poop. When they grew a little themselves started searching the grass to know thats where they were allowed to poop

Whenever my dog has an accident, whether it's been 3 minutes or 3 hours, if we find it and say "what is this?" And "smell" he gets nervous and goes to his kennel. He knows when he did bad, and it's always helpful to find out if it's his or not!

The old stuff an scruff always worked for me 🤷🏿

Thank you needed this video now sending to all my family lol

I just recently got a puppy and I am in for 1 hell of a lesson. I already knew not to do this and I just try my hardest to take her out as much a possible, or when I see her body language change. I'm use to having cats hahaha a dog is a whole other level of responsibility and I thank you for videos like these. I've been watching your videos far before I gotten my puppy and learned a lot. I hope I do well and train my dog well

Puppy has a Gorgeous coat!

I have never heard of people doing that who rubs their dogs face in their own poop but my mom used to do to potty train. The puppies is when they would make a mess in the house because we were always watching them when they were out so the second they started we would pick them up and put them outside and say out and then it always worked.

Great video.

I don’t rub their face on their poop or pee I just tell them “ Aye you don’t poop there “ (not yelling) I do that 3 times & after the third time they know where to poop & pee at & those are for my inside dogs, my big dogs they outside 24/7 & they automatically poop in the corner idk why I never taught them that

Soooo true, I have right now a rescue puppy, she is 2 months old, I found her in the side of the highway, Im looking for a permanent home...but anyways Aint hard to teach the little ball of fur to go outside Doggies have routines, create a routine,

Good looking Dog

How do I retrain an adult dog? Backstory: we got a Treeing Walker Coonhound from the pound. Not much is known about her, except that she’s approximately 2 yrs old. We suspect she was abused. She’s very timid. She’s destructive though, and goes potty all over the house-including my beds (thankfully I have protective covering). I have bare floors, I had rugs at the entryways but she destroyed them going to the bathroom on them. I have another rescue, he’s a Cane Corso, he likes to go out frequently, and I try to get them to go out together. He’s VERY house trained. I’ve been trying to work with her, but I’m at a loss. She is in her kennel when we’re not home, but she goes potty anywhere whenever she wants 😑

He's smart so I don't mind him calling me a dodo head😂

Thank you! Crate train your pup, praise them when you take them out side and they eliminate .

Exactly your dog is just going to be afraid every time you come home

I've lived around dogs my whole life, potty training is a pain in the butt. The trick in my experience is to figure out what times they want to poop and do your best to get them outside before the time they usually go, given time they'll associate taking a leak with the outdoors. Aversive training doesn't work, especially for a dog young enough to need potty training.

My mom used to do that to my dog when I was a teenager. I always felt so bad for the dog and my mom would say she was just training it. Now I'm an adult and I really want a dog so I'm learning how to train one the right way.

Nice job people need to know this !!

“That guys crazy stay away from him he’s gonna grab me and rub my nose in poop” lol

Omigosh. Poor, poor puppies 🙏🏻 old wive’s tale is right! I can’t bear to hear such things 💔

Yoo bro I've ben watching 👀 you bro Your great 👍 man! I have A. 18 month Conney!

I definitely questing that 5 second memory I've had plenty of dogs know there in trouble after they tore up a couch or pooped in a house when I've been away for and hour.

Who you calling a dough dough head? Lol. All of us? Haha

100% I was looking after a dog one time, and I got back late due to work, and she had needed a poop. The look of fear and shame on her face was heartbreaking. I just said "oh baby, it's not your fault, it's mine. You've done nothing wrong. Good girl". I gave her a stroke, gave her a treat and let her out. She licked me. Another time I was stroking her head and I said "I love you" and she gently held my wrist in her teeth, then just let go. And we both knew that it was trust both ways. I've never told anybody that, before. I think if you shove your dog's face in poop, you need to be severely punished. Never abuse animals. Ever

Best advice ever 😂

Had an alsatian cross rottweiler that was challenging for dominance, door wide open, over 2 years old and perfectly aware of what he should have been doing, walked over to the fridge stared my mum right in the eye and pissed up the fridge. He got thrown in it, and that was the end of that. Completely agree with what he's saying tho, it's only because it was immediate that it worked

That shit works great with every dog I’ve ever had
