Housebreaking a Dog
Lets talk about UGODOG, an innovative indoor dog potty and house training system.
Unlike a dog litter box , UGODOG is specially designed as a stylish indoor dog toilet for canines of all shapes and sizes.
Much like training your pet to do tricks, or other healthy habits, you must use repetitive words and always use POSITIVE reinforcement. Also, please be patient with your pets. The length of training time can depend upon your pets age, training level, and habits.
Some pet owners are less informed when it comes to how to potty train a dog, but the process is very simple with the right resources and patience. It is important to incorporate a housebreaking dog program as soon as you bring your new family member home.
If your pet is already accustomed to pee pads then getting used to UGODOG should be easy. Make certain to place the UGODOG in the same place as your dog has been accustomed to using the pee pee pads. When you first remove the pee pads, make certain to introduce UGODOG to your pet by saying, "you pee here". Be sure to reward your pet the first time he, or she, uses UGODOG. You can also continue with the pee pads underneath the grates till your dog is accustomed to the UGODOG then transition to recycled newspaper.
Some dog owners think that their pet is acting sneaky when they pee in the house, but actually, the dog does not understand what he, or she, did wrong.
The trick is to catch your dog in the act and make him, or her, understand that it is a bad act, but do not reprimand him. Use a firm voice and the tone of your voice will be enough for your dog to understand that what he did was wrong. Always be sure to immediately clean up all accidents thoroughly so your dog does not return to the same spot associating it with going potty.
Another important housebreaking dog tip to remember is to always praise your dog when he does relieve himself on the indoor dog potty.
The long term trick to housetraining a dog is consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. You will never want to punish your dog for making a accident in the house.
Housebreaking a Puppy with UGODOG
Introducing a puppy to the UGODOG indoor dog potty can be more challenging. As with all puppies you should confine your pet to a fenced area when you first bring them home. Do not let them become accustomed to having access to the whole house.
Place UGODOG against a wall, somewhere near your puppy's confined area but not too close. Much like most humans, dogs do not like to eat near where they use the bathroom. Just think about that the next time you go to a restaurant and they seat you near the bathroom.
It is important to know that a puppy cannot control his muscles until about 12 weeks of age, so good housebreaking routines should be practiced during this age group.
Always keep in mind, if your pet is sniffing around nervously, more so than usual, it means your pet needs to pee or pooh. Immediately grab your pet's attention and place him on UGODOG. Stay with your pet until he or she has done their deed and praise them all throughout the process, positive reinforcement is key.
Also, if your puppy has an accident anywhere in the house make certain to immediately clean up the accident thoroughly so he, or she, does not return to that same spot catching their scent. If you catch your puppy in the act let him, or her, know that what they did was wrong with a firm tone, but do not punish your puppy.
We recommend taking your puppy to UGODOG every morning when your puppy awakens, and two hours after their meals. You can also leave a small towel that has been soaked in their urine in the UGODOG tray or put a small amount of your dog's urine in the tray and put the grates over it.
Be sure to always praise your dog's achievements and do not reprimand your pet during training as this can confuse your pet.
