Way to Go by Patricia McConnellWay to Go! by Karen London and Patricia McConnell presents the way to housetrain a dog of any age. Their advice boils down to making sure that the puppy (or adult dog) is in one of three situations at all times:

  • Outside with you
  • Inside with your constant supervision (and attention)
  • Crated or gated off in a small dog-proofed room

 

The booklet goes into details including:

  • Knowing when to head outside
  • Handling accidents and clean-ups
  • Expanding your dog's freedom
  • Addressing problems (including physical or medical problems that can affect housetraining)
  • Putting elimination on cue

 

If you consistently follow the procedures and advice in this booklet you will make steady progress towards having a fully housetrained dog!
