I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!

[@sarayfigueroa1749]

I dont know who this will help but something that really help me was when ur dog or puppy is going potty either #1 or #2 tell them, "go potty, go potty". I started to do that when he went to the bathroom and he started to understand exactly what I meant. And started to go on command!😊 I hope this helps someone.

[@zaireandrea2983]

I’m going to try this! I have a mini bernadoodle puppy and he’s 16 weeks. Potty training has been a struggle. But I have noticed he does really well with command training. So I will definitely try this.

[@aletia2005]

Awesome that is what I tell my Daisy

[@lexiamador5969]

1. Feed dogs at same times everyday to learn their natural schedule 2. Reward them as they are completing their business (not after they finish) Can keep treat jar by back door 3. Give them a few minutes to sniff around after they go potty. Puppy bladders take 6-9 months to fully develop. 4. Take them out every 45 min - 1 hour for young puppies and 1-3 hours four 14 weeks+ 5. Nighttime potty runs - no cuddles or talking, give “YES” command and put them back in crate. They probably will cry at first. 6. Make sure the crate is large enough for them to stand/turn around and small enough they won’t want to go to the bathroom in their crate 7. Never punish for going potty inside, if they do pick them up and bring them outside. Reward them for finishing their business outside. 8. Signals! Sniffing, going to the same spot they’ve had an accident at in the past, going in circles, change in behavior (butt scooch), after food and drink, after play, after naps

I was warned that it would take 4 to 5 months by other puppy owners especially for tiny dogs. With your help, I saw success after 8 days and he was pretty much there. His progressive journey has been absolutely amazing! He is 15 weeks old but today is special because we took video of him after he signaled us by sitting at our back door!

[@PamelaMoore-k5d]

I am now 53 years old. When I was approximately 9/10 years old, I was in Girl Scouts. We were trying to earn a badge and someone came to speak to us about potty training puppies. They gave us a booklet about puppies and dogs. What the booklet suggested was, when the dog urinates, take a paper towel or towel, get up the urine, take the soiled towel to a spot, chosen by you and put it down. Put a rock or something on the towel so that it doesn't blow away. Everytime the pup goes out, take he/she to the same spot where the towel is, rain shine, sleet or snow. They can still smell their scent and tell the pup "potty." I would set my pup down on top of the towel to be sure they smelled the urine. If the pup walks away, it's okay, just don't let them go to far away from the towel. If they start to walk away. Pick them up, take back to the towel and say "potty" again. It will take a few times for the puppy to catch on but if you are consistent, you will see progress sooner rather than later. Be sure to observe the pup so that when they void, give plenty of praise. They may have a couple of accidents. If they do, do not scold x just say no, pick the pup up, take to spot and say "potty." The most important thing is to be consistent. If you are not, the training will not work and it is your fault, not the puppy's. I have used this method for every puppy/dog(if not potty trained) and this has always worked. No matter the method, if you are not consistent, it will not work. Pets only know what you teach them. I often get asked how does my dog know what to do and where to go when I say "(go potty)." This is after the training is complete, how my dog knows what to do and again I explain my method and stress the importance of consistency. I have never used any other method other than this. Thank you Girl Scouts and I earned my badge.

[@coolcandyfish1359]

Thank you

[@selinabella8606]

Same, all my pups were trained the same way, to transfer their toilet scent where you need them to pee, definitely fool proof and I don’t see a lot of trainers using this method for some reason and make it more complex than it should be.

I’m so happy to hear that you had the same issue with multiple potty breaks within minutes. I, too, thought something was wrong with my puppy. Happy to report that he’s sleeping about 7 hours through the night and he rings the bell to let us know he has to go. Inside accidents have decreased significantly. Thank you for your videos. They are very helpful!

[@ninivengl]

Hi. Question. When you say he rings a bell, are you speaking figuratively or literally?? 😅😅😅 And if is the second one, how did you teach him?? 😬

[@yvettefulton4016]

@@ninivengl We trained him to actually ring a bell that we hung from the door we went out of to take him to the bathroom. He had to ring it with his paw before we would take him. Once he was fully trained he would ring the bell to let us know when he had to go. It’s great!

[@Hmmm3656]

@@yvettefulton4016Genius idea. I'm going to try that. If he went potty inside, would you ring the bell and then bring him out?

[@yvettefulton4016]

@ninivengl we hung what look like jingle bells by the door we took him out of to go. He would hit the bells with his nose. We trained him by making him ring it every time we took him out. Eventually it became habit and he would sit and wait for us. If we took too long he would ring it again 😊.

[@yvettefulton4016]

@Michelle M_ we didn’t. It that’s a good idea so they can connect the two. We took him out every 1.5-2 hours in the early puppy days and made him ring the bell before we took him out until he start ringing the bell in his own. Good luck!

We’re 3 weeks into our puppy journey and boy is it harder than it looks! Lol while we have 2 other dogs I got them when they were older so this is new territory for me! I’ve lived off of your videos lol we’re still working on potty training though! The one time I’ve strayed from your advice (out of frustration if I’m being completely honest 😩) it set her back all the way to square one so I’m going to stick to every word you say and hoping for a wonderful well trained dog in the end! ❤️

New sub here. I love that you don’t invalidate indoor potty training. Sometimes it’s necessary. Thank you!

I’ve learned everyone has different experiences & needs. We’re all unique which makes everyone beautiful 😍

[@methosimortal]

this isn't meant to attack Rachel. But in the interest of fairness, she did used to be against indoor potty training. Her advice for apartment dwellers was to take the dog outside every hour or so. Then ... she moved into an apartment and realized why that was completely impractical and started advocating the grass patch.

[@nickieisknittingtoomuch]

@@methosimortal I'm not sure why you felt the need to comment this, if not to pass judgement, but I'm not interested in her past views. People grow and change. I thank her for her thoughts now not something in the past.

[@methosimortal]

@@nickieisknittingtoomuch well I felt the need to pass it on because most advice you're going to find online will tell you to take the dog outside every one to two hours, even if you live in an apartment. And it's important to note that she changed her mind once she lived in an apartment herself because that tells potential dog owners a lot about the experiences of the people who are giving advice in the first place (i.e. maybe some of them never lived in an apartment before for example). In addition to that, I'm not divulging some sort of secret information. those videos are still up on her channel and as such I find it perfectly acceptable to bring them up without being accused of having judgmental intentions.

I feel very positive after watching and hearing you. I have a 4 month old puppy and I am very glad I've been doing many of the things you are suggesting, even when I didn't knew it was proven, it has been only what I learned observing and raising the puppies I had while back some years. Of course I fail on many things too, for example the punishing and also letting him see me strongly mad about it. But now I am more sure I am on the good road 😅. He is using the training pads 90 persent of the times and usually only fails at morning whe we over sleep or the cat wakes him up before us. And, he has started to chose outside over inside since he recovered from a little digestive infection. So, now I know how to do a better job, and also have the tool to share with my husband so we can really be a team. Now I am working on reducing the area and the number of spots I put pads on, trying to guide him to the entry of the house 😬. Wish me luck. My puppy is a cocker spaniel and his name is coffee 😊.

Hi Rachel! My husband and I just got a 4 month old puppy from a rescue. He is not potty trained and we have been working to potty train him. We have implemented all of your tricks and our puppy is still going pee in the house. I think he understands that outside is where he should go because he will hold it some nights for around 4 hours before we wake up to take him out in the middle of the night. He continues to go inside regardless of knowing not to. We do say STOP when he pees in the house and we immediately take him outside, the problem is that he won’t continue his pee outside no matter how long we stay out there with him. Then the moment we get back inside he goes. We stop him and take him out again and he won’t go outside. The minute we take him back inside he pees again. He does this around 4 times with small puddles. And when we take him outside he wants to play. I’m worried he thinks that peeing inside gets him outside play time. Even though we don’t play with him outside. he also has regressed and started peeing in his kennel during the day. Even if he completely emptied his bladder outside less than an hour ago. It doesn’t faze him to get it all over and jump around the kennel covered in. Do you have any advice to help this?

Just try and teach them both in different rooms or even try it in the same room. I don’t have much tips but if you have an upstairs have them sleep downstairs so you don’t have to carry them both downstairs. Make sure to take them both out right after they eat and don’t be afraid to let them explore. (Just make sure your backyard is safe, otherwise get a play pen) It’s not as difficult as you’d think just make sure to do research on training.

I am trying to train my puppy to be a service dog. I agree with you when you say it is our fault if we do not pick up the cues. I do "see" her cues in the morning; but I cannot move fast enough or have a yard set up to let her go out. I do believe in Crete training; however, one of her "tasks" is to be on the bed with me, I cannot seem to reconcile this. It is impossible for me to rapidly get dressed, time to put on the leash and collar, and difficult for me to coordinate my hands to give rewards. I have been giving much verbal praise.

Hi Rachel. Thx for the videos, they've been a real help. While using your techniques for crate training and potty training, I discovered another little trick that I love to share with you, to help puppy fall asleep again quicker after you've been outside with them for their nightly potty break. The first three nights I slept downstairs (each time a bit further away from the crate), but on the fourth night I went back upstairs and puppy started howling. Seeing that I have neighbours to consider, and that the first nights he quickly fell asleep again when I was lying close by, I settled myself in front of his crate in a blanket, actually laying my head down on my arm and closing my eyes, and did this slow breathing like for meditation or yoga. Within 5 to 10 minutes he was out, and I would quietly go back upstairs. I only did this for a week, as a sort of transitional stage to learning to sleep alone. Now he doesn't give a peep when I put him in his crate for the night, and within 2 weeks he was sleeping through the night! O, and I also do your eating-time = training-time and he loves it :-)

Hi Rachel, thank you for your informative videos! I just recently rescued two abandoned puppies abandoned on the road. I have them at my house looking for new parents for them. Can you share a few tips on how to train two puppies together? There is a lot of disctuction by each other. For instance, they think that both of their names are DaisyDali, when in fact it a two separate names. Any tips would be much appreciated🙏

[@BuddyBoy3011]

Do you have any tips for people who have to wait to start outside potty training until they have all their shots? We are stuck using pee pads until the puppy gets all his shots due to to many wild animals roaming around our yard daily!

Do you have any suggestion on potting training a 6 yr old rescue Yorkie mix? We have had her for a couple of years & she still has too many accidents inside. We have pee pads all over the house, we take her outside to go every 2-3 hours, give her treats when she goes outside, & we scratch on the door before going outside to try to train her to scratch the door when she has to go out. Nothing seems to be working. Any suggestions??

This is so helpful. Thank you. I am seeking a puppy soon and I have no clue where to start.

Great videos, but hand feeding isn't always feasible and depends on situation. I feed my pup 2xs a day, instead of 1. I luckily have never had issues in the dogs I've raised. I do feed them at different times. You do have alot of great advice 👍

[@jinedalessandra4924]

I’ve been following your recommendations to the T! It’s funny, today I thought my puppy Ollie had a UTI because what you said at the end happened to me today!!! I’m glad I found this video tonight and put my mind at ease.

[@judithhogan453]

So do you hand feed your dogs every meal?

My YorkiPoo is 7 months old. He is super hyper. How can that be controlled. Thanks for your advice..

[@THEDEINALEE]

Your videos been extremely helpful knowing what to expect when it comes to puppy training getting my pup tomorrow

[@konstantinam3696]

If im 8 hours out of the house, what do i do? do i leave the puppy on a crate or o park with a pad? Does he have to learn both crate and park?

[@marciajohnson8492]

So have a question I'm getting a new puppy and a few weeks. When you take them outside to go potty do you put them on a leash or do you put them in a pin or do you just put them in the whole backyard so they could go crazy over the whole backyard. Because I have a big backyard and I also have a dog pen

[@chrism1314]

I have a 10wk old that has learned crate training, and knows 6 hand commands already. He whines to go outside, but the only problem he has is he also has the potty pads inside and he's used it once and is still having trouble with coming back inside and having accidents, NOT on the potty pad. After he pottys outside he will go back to his crate and whines maybe 10 seconds. What do you think of the puppy diapers?

[@pacoramirez54]

That makes so much scene, i just got a puppy that im house training, now my wife passsed away about month ago, and i needed something to occupy my mind, and Bigs came into my life at the right time, but i forgot how hard it was to potty train a puppy, you are right as far as not to get mad at the dog when he dose, i would punish my pup , but i tried it your way, and its working way faster, because i was sending him mixed signals, thank you for your help, and you have a new fan god bless 🙌 ❤️ 😊 😀
