How to Train Your Dog to Eliminate on Command
Teaching your dog to defecate or urinate on command is all about creating a strong association between a specific phrase and the action itself. The phrase I use is "Get Busy," but feel free to choose any word or phrase that suits you.
Why Train Your Dog to Eliminate on Command?
You might wonder why this training is beneficial. The main advantage is that it allows you to set both a time and a place for your dog to eliminate. For example, if you're going to bed early, you can prompt your dog to relieve itself beforehand, ensuring comfort for the next 7 or 8 hours.
An elimination command also helps direct your dog to appropriate areas to eliminate. On walks, if your dog shows signs of needing to go, you can guide them to a suitable spot, like near some bushes, instead of the middle of the sidewalk.
Teaching the "Get Busy" Command
Follow these simple steps to train your dog:
1. Observe Timing: Pay attention to when your dog usually needs to eliminate.
2. Use a Designated Spot: Take your dog to a usual spot and walk back and forth while repeating, "Get busy, get busy, get busy."
3. Associate the Phrase: As your dog starts to eliminate, keep saying "Get busy." After several instances, your dog will begin to associate the command with the action.
4. Praise Immediately: As soon as your dog finishes, provide praise to reinforce the behavior.
5. Be Consistent: Repeat this process every time your dog needs to eliminate. Over time, your dog will understand and respond to the command by making an attempt to relieve itself on cue.
By following these steps, you'll effectively teach your dog to eliminate on command, making life easier for both of you.
Happy training!
