any dog to be a valued part of the family. As with many other aspects of dog
training, the best way to house train a dog is to use the dog's own nature.



The great thing about dogs, and the thing that can make house training much easier,
is that dogs are instinctively very clean animals. Dogs would rather not soil the
areas where they sleep and eat. In addition, dogs are very good at developing
habits regarding where they like to urinate and defecate.



For example, dogs that are used to eliminating on concrete or gravel will prefer to
eliminate there rather than on grass or dirt. It is possible to use these natural
canine habits when house training a dog.



Setting up the training area

The first step in house training a dog is to set up the training area. A small,
confined space such as a bathroom, or part of a kitchen or garage, works best as a
training area. This method of training differs from crate training. Crate training
is great for puppies and small dogs, but many larger dogs find a crate too
confining.



It is important for the owner to spend as much time in the training area with his or
her dog as possible. It is important for the owner to play with the dog in the
training area, and to let the dog eat and sleep in that area. The dog should be
provided with a special bed in the training area, anything from a store bought bed
to a large towel to a large box. At first, the dog may eliminate in this area, but
once the dog has recognized it as his or her own space, he or she will be reluctant
to soil it.



After the dog has gotten used to sleeping in the bed, the owner can move it around
the house, relocating it from room to room. When the dog is alone, the dog should
be confined to the training area.



Setting up the toilet area

The second part of house training is to set up the toilet area for the dog. It is
important for the dog to have access to this place every time he or she needs to
eliminate. It is also important for the owner to accompany the dog each time until
he or she gets into the habit of eliminating in the toilet area. This will ensure
that the dog uses only the established toilet area.
