Potty Training for Service Dogs

By Sarah Anderson

Having a potty trained dog is the number one priority for every dog owner I know. It's even more essential for a Service Dog, as they won't be allowed in businesses without a firm handle on this skill.

Being able to potty your Service Dog on command is extremely helpful, especially if you are traveling and may have limited opportunities to relieve your dog. Nobody wants to be waiting around for 20 mins, trying to coax it out of them, only to be forced to give up and spend the rest of your outing in fear of an accident happening!

We've raised more than a few puppies and have successfully taught them to potty on command, anytime, anywhere, within 30 seconds of hearing the cue. We've gotten so good at this, that our most recent dogs will go nearly instantly on any surface we indicate.

Over the years we have honed in on the perfect Potty Training plan, and now we're sharing it with you.
