Everyone schedules are different ad changing over time. More time is being spent outdoors, more activities, or just crazy work hours. This is when you realize that taking the indoor potty training approach is the great choice for you. This approach is also used by owners with picky dogs. There are just some dogs who hate going outside in different types of weather, as well as for dogs who are having a particularly hard time being house broken, like puppies.
The first thing you should do is pick a couple areas where your dog can go about and do its business. You can later cut down the areas to one or two but its more convenient while training. Second is to choose between potty pads which are used for puppies but also can be used for older dogs or a potty toilet which is much like the ones used for cats but made with synthetic grass. Third make sure to watch your dog to see where it relieves itself. Be patient! If your dog potties elsewhere let the dog know it did wrong and put it in its cage for reinforcement.

Your dog might be exposed to different situations unexpectedly and if not trained properly your dog can react aggressively or become fearful. Another thing an un-socialized dog does is jump and slobber on people; very annoying.
To obtain a friendly and inviting dog you must first always introduce your dogs to strangers, both dogs and humans, so that your dog won’t become intolerable to them.
