Stop Accidents Indoors With THIS Puppy Potty Training Plan
One of the most common puppy potty training struggles we hear from puppy owners is that they take their puppy outside and then the puppy pees immediately when they come back in! In this video, Instructor Steve is going to talk about a simple training plan that will help you to avoid some of the common mistakes that new puppy owners make when it comes to potty training. For some puppies, it will be an easy process to learn not to have accidents indoors, but for others, there needs to be better information! And since we want our dogs to get the best information possible, having a game plan will help you AND your puppy to be successful!

I’m watching this because she’s 4months when I got her, I got her for 2 weeks and she wouldn’t pee or poop in the right spot when we are inside. She also goes # one and then edit to go to #2 hours later
My pup is deaf and can't hear social cues. He also cries & whines when he has to go into the crate.
Use verbal cue....like "go pee pee", when she goes pee pee....say "good dog" and immediately take them inside. This makes them know what they were out there for.
well wouldn’t bringing them right back in make them associate using the bathroom with having to come back inside?
This is what I do with my longhair dachshund & it works great. I usually say, "Potty potty potty," then when she does her business, I praise her and say, "Good girl, potty potty!!" I'm sure it would garner some weird looks from strangers if out in public, but it sure works well. lol
I did the same and it worked great to the point where I accidentally said it inside (context) “come let’s go pee” and he went RIGHT THERE on the floor. It works well generally speaking.
@@miname262 LOL 😆.
@@liamk9906 wot?
Just stood outside in the freezing cold for 30 mins brought him inside n straight away he peed in the house 😭
It's harder to house train in the winter for sure! they are cold too! Just keep trying
@@FushiguroMegumi79 he's achually alot better now sadly we are having alot of health problems with him tho we recently found out he has cancer n he's only 5 months old he had surgery 5 days ago so hopefully it's not spread 🤞
@@HaBeatByAGirl hows he doing now?
@@rodger_zzz he's fully house trained now thankfully
How long did it take for you? I have a 5 month old puppy Germand shepherd and she's great with pooping outdoors buts always pees indoors. It's mentally exhausting
I've watched a ton of videos and this is THE video to watch. New puppy has been with for only 3 days and today there has been no accidents anywhere. I cannot believe it. Like I seriously cannot believe that the puppy had no accidents today. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!!
Used most of these tips with my Staffy when she was a puppy. Proactive routine with my new American Bully puppy has resulted in almost zero accidents. So important
I have a American bully and I'm having trouble with mine she was doing good the first week in her pee pads but then she goes anywhere the house now :/
Help me please
Quite unfortunate given the terrible breeds of dog you have.
@@0ThrowawayAccount0 bet you don't have many friends
@@0ThrowawayAccount0 What's so bad about them?
For current or future puppy owners, take note of what he says about a "properly-sized crate" because it is imperative to do this. My mistake early on with my puppy was getting her a crate that I knew would be too small or just right when she gets 6-8 months old because I knew she would rapidly grow (she is a Bullmastiff). The issue was the crate was so large that she had options of relieving herself in her crate while I did not have eyes on her and sitting or lying down on the opposite end of the crate. Once I recognized my mistake, it was too late, and she had gotten used to going in her crate even when I got a proper-sized crate. It took me almost two years before she was fully house-trained.
It's hard to put into words how helpful this channel is. Thank you guys for the effort and attention to details. Often times things are left out because they seem "obvious" to the trainer. Not you guys!
She is eating a grass while i am waiting for her to do her business is pooping and peeing 😳😵
Amen thank you
I 100% agree!!!
This is such a great video - thanks so much for sharing!
Omg the point about not rewarding with food makes so much sense. I cant wait to try it once my 8 wk old puppy wakes up
Because of the help from your videos, we NEVER had a poo accident, and we only a had a couple pee accidents on washable bath mats we had set around her area. THANK YOU!
Excellent info. His voice is soothing. Puppy accidents are owner failure to supervise, not puppy failure.
I’ve seen so many videos and read so many blogs but this has definitely been the greatest help! Thank you so much, I didn’t realised thay my puppy being so distracted was what was keeping him from peeing outside 😅
I just got my first pet and I’ll start using these tricks. You have very detailed instructions. 😊
Hello Vann how are you doing today
Yours is literally the only channel that helped me thank you
Hello Jennifer how are you doing today
Thank you for sharing... incredibly helpful!! 👍
Hello Rose how are you doing today
My dog is 8 months. And from a puppy mill. She is not going to the bath room at all. I have been watching her all the time. I can't teach her where to go until I can get her to go. It's been 3 days. Your video is so calm. I want to use your tips.
I just found your channel and it’s great. Thanks.
great video!!!! thank you so much
This is so helpful
Most of us love our dogs but also have real jobs and things we must do. I am sure the techniques work for one with ample time.
People who "don't have ample time" should get an adult dog that is already trained. When bringing home an untrained dog/puppy you should take off at least one week and do a ton of work with it.
ive got a 10 week old german/husky/lab and despite the involved breeds he has proven to be very unresponsive to random things. notices them but just immediately goes back to his focus. hoping its a sign he picked up good working dog genes
Finally a great video I’ve been looking for!
As a maybe fitst time puppy owner. Thank you, this helps a lot
My black lab Amaya is 8 months old now. She is completely potty trained. The Leash really does work. In the beginning. When she was out of her crate I took her to one spot in my yard every hour. She had 5 accidents in the house while training. She was training completely by 5 months ago.
Hello Carolyn how are you doing today
Awesome. I’ll try it out
Thank you
Wait... Piper is MY pup's name!! I'm pleased to say that I've watched so many McCann dog training vids, including abt potty-training, that everything in this video was familiar to me even if I'm not always good at catching puppy in the act. I ended up buying a $3 whiteboard to put on my fridge to keep track of all the pees and poops one day to get a sense of when they might happen the next day. No way I could keep all that in my head! Good luck everybody. This puppy business was much more work than I had imagined! Hitting the 20-week mark now and noticing we are turning a corner with the potty training a bit and every bit helps 🙄😅
My Chihuahua mix screamed, panicked, and vomited, peed, and pooped in his crate, repeatedly, when I tried crate training. I gave up on the crate & took him outside every half hour to potty. He learned quickly but 6yrs later still pees on specific spots in the house. I'm cleaning with enzyme cleaner daily, so frustrating, but I'm glad he's mostly going outside.
Worst dog to own. Like literally.
thank you it really helped....
Best dog training system
I Thank you for sharing your video and tips and tricks.I have my gdoodle for two weeks now he 11 weeks old and he still is doing pees & poops in the the house. When we are talking him outside he does everywhere’s we wanted him do same spots he didn’t wants. If he did potty outside we praise him and we gave him his pebbles for rewards. This has been two weeks and he seems to learn a bit better.
Hello Sophie how are you doing today
Very helpful training advice!
After a LONG time I finally got my dogs trained! I'm very proud and pleased that I managed their training. Thank you for these tips it really helped me.
How long ?? I have a older puppy and I’m going nuts lol
@@callieannstarkey4606 My dogs were over 2 years old when i startes training them it took 5 months for my labrador to finally get it and 8 months for my japanese spitz to get it. Their ages are 3 and 6 and it took a routine and countless times where i went crazy but they got it. The time when you take them out depends on the size of dog and their age since a smaller bladder means they have to be taken out much sooner
I control their water intake since we don't have an open space where they can run to make sure no accidents happen, and after i feed them i take them out and take them out again 2 hours later to make sure they don't have an accident i also limit the water intake 2 hours before bedtime.
Sounds hard but it is easy when you get it down to a routine
Informative video. What's the plant next to the crate?
I like this! Thanks
This guy is great
This was helpful! It's been a struggle 😩
Right there with you. When I watch these I see what I'm doing wrong but putting it into practice is a full time job.
@@jcims yep right there with you both, just had a puppy I'm exhausted already ♥️
I hope that she will get there
I’m so tired of trying all the tips and he still is peeing on everything.
@@patcompton700 how'd it work out?
It took me 4 days to teach my kitten to be litter trained so hopefully I can do the same with my puppy
Good training
THANKS U!!
Love watching your training
Thank u il try
thank you this vid was so helpful we were on the track of giving our puppy away but this helped her a lot
I am like a helicopter parent to my new 10 week lab puppy. Constant watching and outside every 30 to 60 minutes. I find myself limiting water but need to avoid deprivation.
I am using the timer on my Fitbit to keep track of the peeing!!
Hello Elizabeth how are you doing today
Yes
I just got a puppy. I’ve trained him to pee within first 2 min he’s put on the grass. Go out after naps, after feeding and after playtime, praise when they wee outside, catch them and tell off for doing it inside. I’ve managed it over our first weekend, maybe I’m just very lucky
Hello Rose how are you doing today
very, but I'm happy for you 😁
@Judy Miller Hello Judy how are you doing today
The trick is catching the puppy peeing inside and letting it know it's a big no no.
AMAZING VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for your awesome tutorials on puppy training! I'm about to get a new puppy and I've been doing my research so we're successful from the start. I have a question though. I've recently moved in to an apartment and I'm wondering if I should/shouldn't teach the puppy to go potty in a specific spot/tray in a large "outdoor" balcony for its first potty of the day? And remove this option as the dog matures and is able to hold its bladder until I am ready to walk him outside? Thank you so much for your help !
I'd also like to ask this question!
What do you do to help "excited pee accidents" when they are greeted by a family member?? Thanks!!! 🐶
Sick ass kicks man
This is great advice and I’ve never had issue house breaking a dog. My issue is I have a pitbull who’s very overbearing with the new puppy. He doesn’t hurt her but he’s up her butt 24/7. So it’s very distracting and hard to get the puppy to focus. I get so busy with the pitbull and telling him to go to bed and stay that I lose track of the little one and sure enough she peed or pooped while I was dealing with the other dog. I mean I can’t even pee pad train her. The big dog lays on like a bed so she can’t even access the pee pad. 🙄 Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks for the content and any help.
Make sure to guard your bed! It is one of the favorite places that puppies do their deed. It expensive to replace the bedding and a new mattress. Place a full array of puppy pads on top of your bed just in case!
Thank you for giving these ideas this is gonna help me a lot with my puppy
Hello Majid how are you doing today
Been trying for 3 months lol. Got her at 10 months and she’s only like 75% potty trained. She’ll go a lot if she’s not crated when I go to work or leave her alone for a bit but otherwise fine
Same. Has it got any better?
@@vasarhelyidalia4784 lol not really. I can leave her to run around when I’m sleeping and she’s good. She only has accidents when I leave home now, so I crate her and she’s fine. But she does go less often if I don’t crate her if I’m gone for like 2 hours or less
''Or there's an Interesting ant on the ground!''...Haha! so very true 🐜
Lmao. I know right!
@@carolynfolsom6626 Puppies are so inquisitive...Everything so new to them. So sweet to see their inquisitive ears and noses sniffing...Even if they aren't concentrating on doing a wee/poo.
I have an older dog that has refused to stop "marking his territory" inside. Is there a video on this. He is a chauauaha/terrier mix.
Excellent video. Thank you!
My puppy is 3 months old and doesn’t have his shots yet to go outside. Is the interrupt technique good to use in the meantime?
Good
Omg my dog looks exactly like that and her name is Piper too! Maybe they are a different breed idk but mine is a mix of golden retriever and Labrador
What about If you live on the second floor and it’s not as easy to go outside? Patio potty? Do you have a video on apartment living?
Do female puppies take longer to get bladder control? I have mostly had males and they trained relatively quickly, I’ve had 1 female and she had accidents up to 2 years old, now I have another female and it seems like she just can’t hold it to get outside when the urge hits.
I have a 6 yr old Yorkie mix that was a rescue. Nobody has house trained her so we have a problem with her going indoors. Is there any training info on how to house train an older dog?
You just take them out literally every 20 minutes and mine was potty trained the day before she turned 3 months as well as my first pup..
My dog is so good at potty outside but always every day when I sleep he does it inside every day
My puppy is finally went to the bathroom on the grass 😄
cool
Not having accidents but peeing when excitement which daughter and husband. Fergus has already gone outside to go potty. But he’s so excited with my husband and 16 yr old. Will this continue until he’s 2? He’s 8 months now.
My pup just sits....sometimes I can’t even tell she peed. Poop I can catch...maddening Seems I’m watching her constantly. She’s a shih tzu..
Things any better?
Exactly, is he/she sitting or peeing? omg
@@AgentSmith911 Right? 🤦♂️
Am going to try this, I just got a American eskimo 2months and 8 days I don't know if it's too quick for him to learn, I take him outside he doesn't pee back inside the house he pee
My pup is a little over 8 months... he won't go in the house at least when I'm around and knows I don't like it...but he goes all the time in his crate it doesn't matter whether he goes out and uses the bathroom or not. He sneaks and does it he'll wait till I'm gone or during when I'm sleep
How big is his crate? If it’s too big he will go in it but if it’s just the right size for him to sleep in then he won’t
The crate is probably too big.
my puppy always poops and pees in the house so this is going to be useful
I got a big crate for my puppy to safe $ from buying another crate in the future. But he poops all in it. So now I've got him able to roam around while I'm gone for 8 hours I got pee pads but idk how to Train him to only use the pads
I never encountered this issue with any of my Dobermans. I did my part to avoid accidents, but they just seemed to have understood the house rules from day 1.
This is not the case with my doberman.
@@mattr882 Your mileage may vary. That said, I had an extremely intelligent and well mannered older alpha female that did a lot of the work keeping the younger dogs in line and following the rules.
This puppy doesn’t chew on the leash 🤩
Do you wait until fully vaccinated due to parvo?
Please help! I have a 5 month Beagle who sleeps on my bed every night. She's mostly house trained, but now has peed in my bed twice in the last 2 weeks... why has she started doing this? How can I stop it? I really don't want this to become a habit
Any tips for older dogs that still arent housebroken? My puppy is over 10 months and still has accidents, even though I know they can hold it for 8-10 hours!
I've read that puppy accidents can continue up to one year. Their learning isn't a straight line + adolescent hormones can make them forget things as they mature. Don't punish - ignore mistakes if you don't catch them. Uh-uh if you catch them, then take outside quickly + praise. Don't stress dog. Stay on a schedule to ensure success. Is your dog getting enough ex ercise? Is there any change stressing your dog(new schedule, housemate, new food,etc)?
I'm going through this exact same issue with my 10 month old puppy so I guess I have to start back at square one
Everyone talks about home training but what about condo, apartment, or a walk up potty training. I have a 8week Boston terrier. I don’t want to use puppy pads. I want him to go outside. However I can’t lead him out I have to pick him up and carry him out.
feeling frustrated things great week one, keeping routine puppy just peeing whenever he feels like it now, like he just doesn’t have concerns
Hello bro I have a question that I m going to buy golden retriever puppies can I buy the pocket fan or not please reply me
We just became a guardian family to a 2 year old dog. She has been resistant to eliminate when we take her out and seems to "hold it" and is definitely not going regularly as she did with the family before us. I have recently tried just standing in one place when we take her out because it's obvious that she's very distracted but when I stood still in place she sort of copied me. I stood still for 15 minutes and she did the same and she absolutely has to go potty as she hasn't gone at all this morning. I know there will be an adjustment period as we are new to her, but how can I help her with this? She's also not very treat motivated at this time. Thank you for any tips
Try keeping it under five minutes outside Go outside give a quick go pee or whatever command you use for it and wait up to five minutes only If they go treat or acclaim reward them and if they don’t go right back in and then play a minute or two to distract them and take them right back out for under four minutes You want them to get associated with going out is exactly the time to release themselves. Not a time to fool around or go play
I’m being proactive and doing all of these steps. I’ve just adopted my puppy from the pound. She’s used to going “inside” where she sleeps inside their big kennel/room they get. I literally walk around for at least 30 mins each time and she just does not want to go outside. I don’t know what I should do. Also I did put her I. The crate at night and she pooped in the crate where she sleeps. Part of that of course that she’s used to it. It’s not her fault. I’m not sure if I just keep doing what I’m doing and eventually she will get it when she’s ready or if I need to change what I’m doing? Btw she is 5 months and I think she is pitty/ lab mix
did your pup ever learn? mine is 5 months too and she’s always pooping inside our house even after I took her out.
I’ve tried everything and when my puppy was 3 months old he was fully trained. Now he’s 6 months old and refuses to go in his papers. He ignores them and goes on the floor in the same spot. I put papers,there and he picks them up and chews them. I put him in his kennel and he barks until I turn him loose. He’s barked for 8 hours straits even when I take him out to try point on his paper.
A friend of mine has a one year old puppy, female, and sge pees in the house whenever she gets excited, for example when visitors come over, or when they visit someone else. So its more enthusiastic peeing. Any tips would be very much appreciated! He already walks her before visits, but she still pees when enthusiastic.
Ooh, excitapee. Honestly, the way to deal with this is to stop your friends dog from getting excited. Usually you should ignore the dog until she calms down. Then you can interact with her as long as she remains calm. That's the only real way to help with this. Or, a diaper.
Geez! Going through that now and It’s driving me crazy!!!
What about a 9 week old puppy, was under impression outside was a no no due to bacteria infection.
unfortunately my 4 month old dog uses a few of her crate as a toilet. She stopped going in the crate she sleeps in - for the most part. The problem started day one when I picked her up at the airport ... she was feed a little food and immediately when I hit the busy highway she started crying... I couldn't stop to let her go outside so she pooped in her crate. Since then she doesn't have a lot of respect for her crates. However she stopped going in the crate she sleeps in. I have a crate in the car and it's 50/50% chance of her pooping in it and the one in the kitchen is large wire crate (I've had it for other pets - not sure if she can smell that. FRUSTRATED!
My biggest concern about getting a puppy is how do you interrupt all this training when life intervenes? For example, sure I can take a week or whatever off when the puppy first comes home, but what happens after that? I know the simple but not so simple answer is that someone needs to be available each day for the puppy, but I can’t imagine everyone is able to accommodate that? I’m planning to get my first puppy (but not my first dog or other animal) in the near future and I want to train myself as best as possible so I can be a good trainer for my puppy!
my tiny little papillon is only 3 lbs and his pees are so so tiny and frequent. any tips, or should I accept I might have to deal with puppy pad training for a little bit
My mom recently got a puppy he’s 2 months old and he pees and poops in the house so I’ll tell my mom these to help him understand what’s right and what’s wrong
I haven't found a noise that will startle and interrupt my puppy's accidents fast enough that I can get to her, especially when she's inside the play pen and I'm outside, I can't get there in time. I've tried a funny noise with my mouth, I've tried clapping, yelling "no", she looks at me but continues to pee or poop where she is... I wonder if she's learning that when she potties on the floor I start running to give her attention and that's actually reinforcing it. Should I leave her in the crate the whole time I'm not monitoring closely instead of free inside the play pen?
I have not gotten a puppy yet but I will soon 😊🎉❤
Going to try this on our new puppy. We thought he would figure it out from our other dog, but no chance. We take our puppy outside hoping he'll do his business but he just sits down and stares up at us like " what are we doing here?". Lol
Hello Brenda how are you doing today
What about at night? How long can they last in their crate without going? How many times should I get up and take her outside during the night?
My puppy uses it on the driveway sometimes. Should I do the same thing like I do inside to stop this
Hi, when I take him out he bites his leash and when he pees sometimes in the pad area but outside the moment I pick him up to put him in the pad he stops and it’s impossible to make him focus to finish. What can I do with this? 😩
My puppy is 6 months old .will not poop on puppy pads. Never not punished .not scared. Almost stubborn. Sneaking
I pick them up and that works better. Now that Stevie is 12 weeks old his create is near the door. Open the door open the create. Keep your nose out of your phone's 😂
My dog gets so nervous whenever she goes outside. She's from Arkansas and we adopted her in NYC and I'm assuming the city makes her terrified. She completely shuts down whenever I take her outside. She doesn't eat. She doesn't potty. She doesn't play. She doesn't even look at you. She tries to runaway when she gets outside.
