Zoetje’s Labradors
Labradors - The Breed
Potty Training
It is important for your dog to have an established routine and for you to be consistent in your expectations of him. The easy way to look at the routine you need to establish is that any time there is a break during the day or a change of direction in your dog’s day, take the dog to his potty place.
The five keys to your success are:
- When your dog gets up, take him to the potty place.
- Feed your dog on a regular schedule which will eventually be twice a day, about 10-12 hours apart. After he eats or drinks anything, take him to the potty place.
- After your dog plays or exercises, take him to the potty place.
- Withhold water for two to four hours before your dog goes to bed.
- Just prior to going to bed, take him to the potty place.
