Train Your puppy to Pee Outside

Your puppy can’t tell you they have to relieve themselves, or can they? They can if you teach them the “potty cue.” Potty cues start by showing your pet how to signal they want to go outdoors. From there, your puppy will recognize the feeling of peeing with being outside of your home.

The Potty Cue

Have your puppy sit by the back door. When your pet barks, open the back door and let them out. Don't want your pup to bark? Try a bell. When your pet rings the bell, open the door and take them outside. Remember, the potty cue is just for going potty, don’t let your puppy play too much outside after doing their business - otherwise, they will recognise the cue with getting to play outdoors, not just going potty.
