How To Potty Train Your Dog More Effectively

Bringing an adult dog into your home demands as much
effort from you and the family as does a puppy. It's a
mistake to think that just because the dog is full-grown and
may have been potty trained in one home, that he'll just
immediately adjust to your home's elimination schedule,
too.

That's not realistic. The dog has many adjustments to his
new environment and doesn't instinctively know that you
don't allow peeing on the floor – especially his prior owner
didn't mind or didn't seem to care.

Don't make the mistake of assuming that because he's an
adult dog that he'll just "know" what to do. Start with him
as if he were a puppy and gradually teach him the routine
of your home's pet potty schedule.
