Potty Training 1 Year Old Dog
Potty training a one year old dog can be a bit of a challenge, but it is definitely doable. The first step is to figure out what kind of schedule your dog is currently on. If your dog is currently taking regular potty breaks outside, you will want to stick to that same schedule as closely as possible when potty training. If your dog is not currently taking regular potty breaks outside, you will want to start by taking your dog out every hour on the hour, until they are consistently going potty outside.
Once you have a good idea of your dog’s current potty schedule, it is time to start working on the actual potty training. The best way to do this is by using a combination of positive reinforcement and punishment. Whenever your dog goes potty in the correct spot, give them a treat and lots of praise. If your dog goes potty in the wrong spot, give them a stern talking to and maybe even a quick shake or spritz of water.
It is important to be consistent with both the positive reinforcement and punishment, and to always be on the lookout for signs that your dog needs to go potty. Some common signs that your dog needs to go potty include whining, pacing, and sniffing around. If you see any of these signs, immediately take your dog outside to go potty.
It is also important to be patient during the potty training process. It may take a while for your dog to get the hang of things, but with patience and perseverance, you will be able to successfully potty train your one year old dog.

How To Train A Dog To Potty In One Area
There are a few basics that you need to understand when potty training a dog. Dogs are innately clean animals and they will not soil their living areas. If you can create an association in your dog’s mind between going outside and relieving themselves, then you will have much less of a mess to clean up.
The first step in potty training your dog is to create a designated potty area. This can be an outdoor area or an indoor potty area. If you are using an outdoor area, make sure that it is a shady spot and that there is a designated potty spot that is always kept clean. If you are using an indoor potty area, make sure that it is an easily cleaned surface such as tile or linoleum.
When you are first starting to potty train your dog, you will need to take them to their designated potty area every time they need to go. As they get older and learn the association between going outside and relieving themselves, you can start to allow them to go outside on their own. However, you will always need to be there to supervise them until you are absolutely sure that they will relieve themselves in the correct spot.
If your dog has an accident in the house, do not punish them. Dogs do not understand punishment and it will only make them more anxious and more likely to have accidents in the future. Clean up the mess and put your dog in their designated potty area until they relieve themselves. This will help them to understand that they need to go in that area.
It is important to be patient when potty training a dog. It can take a while for them to learn the association between going outside and relieving themselves. Be consistent with taking them to their designated potty area and provide plenty of positive reinforcement when they do relieve themselves in the correct spot.
