Something I get asked often is how I feel about using a potty bell.  If you listened to my complete guide to potty training then you know that I don't mention using a bell at all but does that mean I don't want you to?  No go ahead...well, maybe... While I'll show my clients how to use the bell if they ask, I find myself talking them out of it more often than not.  I'm not against using a bell, I just find that it doesn't work in the way we may think.  BUT as long as our expectations are in the right place a potty bell might work for you.  So stick around until the end when I tell you exactly how to teach your dog to ring a bell to go outside.  In this episode I talk about:* Why I may hesitate to teach the bell.* Why a bell might not work the way you think it will.* Conversations I have with my clients before teaching the bell.* Reasons a potty bell might work for you.* How to teach your dog to ring a bell to go outside.Press play and enjoy!Other resources mentioned and related to this episode:YNP #010: Complete Guide to Potty Training Your PuppyPlaytime Paws Academy:  A brand new program for dog and humans no matter where you are in your training journey.
