    I love dogs! I think the best way to train a young dog to stop urinating or pooping in the house is to rub its nose in it, not too rough and give it a soft paddle on the but. Point at his noise and say bad dog. Take him out to the yard and let him run around a bit so he/she knows where you would like him/her to do that sort of thing. Pet him...call..him a good dog and take him back inside. After awhile, your dog will realize that it has to whine in order to go to the bathroom so you can take him/her outside. Make sure you take your dog outside when it tells you or it will break your training efforts. Every dog I have had, I have done this with and it works.

    • Rubbing a dog's sensitive nose in a POTTY ACCIDENT is of no value except to teach the dog that YOU are not a very stable person...it doesn't TEACH the correct behavior because animals do not have the same mental agility as humans...they don't have the same "moral" considerations for going to the bathroom or touching their own privates (or anyone else's now that I think upon it) in public. Rubbing their nose in it can also train the dog to EAT ITS OWN FECES...which most people find pretty disgusting.
