6 Potty Training Secrets NOBODY Shares 🐶 Seriously try these with your puppy!!!

Just added more to my “favorite pet products” list, & am updating it weekly: www.rachelfusaro.com/shop ALSO, you’re an awesome human. Never forget it 😘

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.

Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games youtube.com/post/Ugkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64Pq… and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!

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 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.

I just cannot thank you enough for your puppy potty training help! My shih tzu was 9 weeks when we brought him home. 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! It wasn't his first time, but today we got a picture and video! I totally wish you could see it! Anyway! Thanks be to you doll! I am fit to be tied excited!

Last week, I started trying Rachel’s advice on how to convince your parents to get you a puppy and this week my parents are seriously starting to consider adopting a dog for me! Thanks so much Rachel!!!❤️🙏

After watching your potty training videos I started giving him a treat after going to potty outside. What an amazing difference this has made.

It's so nice to have a lady who does super hacks inside. Thanks!

I fell on this video just in time! I’m getting my little fur baby THIS WEEK and I want to do everything right! I’ll be binge watching ALL your videos in preparation🤗

Finally! A puppy training video that doesn’t revolve around keeping them locked up in a crate! Thank you!🙏

This video is so informative, Rachel! Thank you! 🐶 Wally is a trooper. He was so patient while you filmed.

I just adopted a wonderful 4 yo min pin rescue (who had been starved and abused). She has never had a #1 accident in the house, but always waits to do #2 when we get back in the house and I’m not watching. I am immediately going to start employing your tips . She is a very smart girl so I hope we will get over this hurdle quickly. Thanks so much!

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! ❤️

Great video! You’re amazing! Thank you for giving us so much confidence with our new pups!

Absolutely like training children, it’s helping the brain, and bladder , it’s growth , and training!

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

He's such a good boy. Thanks for sharing, great job as always. Lots of puppy hugs. Blessings to the journey and good health for all

This was encouraging. Thank you for Sharing your experience with us.

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 😊.
