There are three main ways to go about potty training a dog. If your dog spends a lot of time in a kennel, you can train him to go in a corner so it is in one spot. If you have a fenced in yard and will just let your dog go outside when she needs to go to the bathroom, you can train her to go to the door and let you know when she has to go. The third way is to potty train your dog using a mat.

Whichever way you choose to potty train a dog, you need to use positive reinforcement. Praise your dog when he goes outside. You can scold him if goes to the bathroom in the house, but only if you catch him in the act. If you get after him after the fact, he won't know what he is in trouble for and it will just confuse him.
