By Jason Taingahue
I would suggest that in any household that this is the most important part of a dog's life. Learning to house train a dog. And the best time to start house training a dog is when they are only a puppy.

Just like children, dogs pick up habits when they are young and carry them on through there own lives as they get older.

So when do we start learning how to house train a dog. It really depends on how old the dog is when you get it. If the dog is only a puppy then this is the best time to train him up. If the dog is fully grown and has bad habits then we can still train the animal up, but it will be a lot harder because they will already have all there house hold habits trained from when they were pups as well.

When learning how to house train a dog`, we will take that of a little pup. Some methods of house training a little pup are simple and effective. Put the pup in the garage or outside of the house when he has to go to bed. We want to train him so that he is in and out of the house through the day and outside at night time when we are sleeping.

The next part that we have to teach when learning how to house train a dog (pup) is that when you have finished feeding the dog (pup) or giving them a drink, put them outside straight away and keep an eye on them. We want to make sure that they have a bowel motion outside before they come back in and do this after every meal. It would be preferable to put them outside near an old ditch patch because dogs like to bury there business after they have finished.

When learning how to house train a dog, all those techniques above can be applied to older dogs as well if you happen to be given one some time in your life. It may take a little bit longer to train an older dog up, but just be patient, it will not happen straight away, but it will happen eventually.

The final piece of information that I can give you when learning how to house train a dog, is treat your dog like your own children. Love your dog and treat the dog with respect. Keep the dog well fed and groomed. And by groomed I don't mean give the dog some clothes to wear. Dogs appreciate love and affection and give back what they receive.

No urine in the house and none of the dogs business is a bonus and can be all attributed to the house training that you have given the dog and make life a hell of a lot easier and keep the dog happy too.
