Housebreaking a dog is very important if you want to live a happy and long life with it.
You will need to learn how to properly train it to go outside, and to even ask to go as well.
Here you will learn the finer points of how to train a dog to ask to go outside.
The thing you must remember is that a dog will go in the same place over and over again.
So, if in the past it had an accident, you need to clean it, and get rid of the odor right away.
It's best to have a leash when taking your dog out, so get one, and keep it by the door.
Not only will it be easy access, but your dog will remember the leash, and know what it's for.
While your dog is inside, always keep an eye on it.
To keep it easy, make sure it only has access to whatever room you are currently in.
This way, you will be able to know when it is looking for a place to go.
There are some easy tell tale signs of when your dog wants to go out, the main one and most common one to look for is it will start to sniff around.
This is your dog looking for a place to go, this is when you put the leash on, and take it outside.
A major thing you can do is to keep a bathroom break schedule with your dog.
As soon as you get up, the first thing you should do is take your dog out for its morning pee.
Now, if you can, come home for lunch, and take it out, and again when you come home.
One last time should be a quick pee break just before bed.
All these things you just learned, will train your dog to eventually ask you to go out.
It will not take time at all, especially if there is a routine involved.
Not only will your dog know that it's time to go out, it will ask you, even if it isn't time, just that it needs to go.
