How to Get a Bulldog Puppy Trained to Go Potty Outside?

by Dogs.net on October 14, 2011

My bulldog puppy is 10 days old and merely got enough shoots to begin going outdoors. We have been taking him out for just two days but every-time we go he sniffs and eats the grass rather than going potty. I'm scared that he's eating the grass for just one as well as for two I would like him to begin going potty outdoors. Any suggestions or recommendations. Thanks!

Here are the training tips to get your pup potty trained. The training will not just teach your pup to poo on the right spot but also to house train him. Check this out:

1) Take him out first thing in the morning when he is certain to need to go. Take him to the same spot always to go pee and poop. Command him to go poop or pee. If he does praise him excitedly & give the best treat you can (I used a small bite of meat). When you praise him say “Good pee” or “Good poop” (reinforce the command words)

2) Save the special treat (hopefully fresh cooked meat) for just when he’s gone pee or poop. Don’t give the best treats at ANY other time until he is potty trained so that he really wants to do what you ask to get it.

3) After he’s succeeded with the am pee (which he should) then take him out automatically every 2 or 3 hrs to give him another chance.

4) In addition, watch for when he starts to lift his leg inside and quickly pick him up and say “no” and then bring him outside. Be sure to clean up the spot well since the smells in the house will encourage him to continue to do it inside.

5) Lastley, as far as pooping, always take him out right after eating as well as watching for sniffing the ground, squatting, etc.

Good luck!
