Re: Do you hit your dog?
I have a 7 month old pup and I have him crate trained. I got him at 2 month old. He went potty in the house like 4 times total. What seemed to work for me was just to constantly keep a eye on him for the first while and catch him in the act of doing the bad behavior picked him and and sat him out side till he went potty then rewared. I was shocked as ---- how well it worked honestly. For the first while the best thing to do is, while he is not crated to just keep a constant eye on him and while doing bad disaplin without abuse and he will learn fast. What kinda dog are you working with scott?

Put bells beside your door and take it's paw and hit the bells when ever you take it outside. REWARD it when it's outside and takes a ----/**** and say "(insert name here) GOOD BOY/GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and lots of petting under his/her chin. You shoudln't pet a dog on top of it's head. When my dog wants out he ring the bells to go out.
And i forgot NEVER!!!!!! hit a dog with your hand. If you are going to give him a "tap" use a rolled up news paper and hit him on the *** NEVER the nose.
any questions? feel free to ask!

crate training is the best method to potty train a dog at any age, but most dogs cannot control their bowels until they are around 10 weeks old or so, thats why you should not spank a puppy for going in the house, they can't hold it, er they don't know they can rather.
if you take your dog to an obediance school they will tell you that they are not there to train your dog, they are there to train you.

Re: Do you hit your dog?
well, the whole reason i made this thread is cause my dog took my white hat outside and put it in the mud, didnt even tear it up, just dropped it in the mud. so i hit her with it quite a few times. shes probably about a year and a half old.
