Having a puppy learn where their “potty spot” is and use it consistently is a huge breakthrough in the potty training process!

But for some pups they can get so comfortable going in one spot, they don’t want to go anywhere else! (This even happens with some of our new students at our day school and it can take them a few days to start going to a new spot with us!)

Although consistency is great, having your pup be able to potty on command wherever you need them to instead of holding it until they get home is important both for convenience and health reasons. The good news is you can teach them how to go in multiple areas and you can do this rather quickly too!
