Train Your Dog to Use a Litter Box Kathryn Paulk

Training a dog to use a litter box makes life easier for both the human and for the dog. If your dog is trained to use a litter box, there is no need for you to rush home to take the dog "out" and there is no need for your dog to wait for you! This book will guide the reader through the steps, necessary to train a dog to use a litter box. It's not natural for a dog to use a litter box, but it can be done. The author has experience with training: One female pug (Spottie) to use a high-side litter box, lined with newspaper, and Two female pugs (Sandy and Coco) to use a high-side litter box with an elevated plastic grid. The book answers the following questions with first-hand experience, examples, and pictures: Why train your dog(s) to use a litter box? What kind of litter box is best? What kind of crate is best? How many litter boxes are needed?Where should the litter boxes be placed?When should you start training a dog to use a litter box?How do you start training a dog to use a litter box?How do you clean the litter box? How do you reward success and deal with failures?If things go awry, how do you get back on track? Will dogs still "go" outside and should they?
