Whether our puppies like it or not, we will have to leave them outside in the garden in some attempt to get them to relieve themselves out there on the grass.
Obviously, the plan is to positively reinforce that behaviour when that happens – but the issue is how you’ll have to play the waiting game in the meantime.
This Labrador Retriever puppy has to be potty trained, but he doesn’t quite understand it at all – why must he be kept outside in the garden! He is being watched, of course – no one would truly leave him alone. It probably doesn’t make him feel any better though, especially when he can see everyone through the sliding door glass!
He tries to get back in, by pawing at the door as much as he can, before finally resorting to eating the glass! Or, at least, he tries to. He isn’t very good at it.
