For a very good guide to all sorts of dog training processes and dog behavior challenges, I use and recommend Clickertraining ...that link goes to the description of this terrific ebook you download immediately, wherever you are! -- Rosana

When I decided to experiment with making online videos last December, I made one called Potty Train Your Puppy. It’s under 4 minutes and goes through the basics of housetraining puppies. Recently I checked my stats for Potty Train Your Puppy at Youtube and was thrilled that over 12,000 people had watched it. (The link takes you to the video at youtube.)

UPDATE May 2009: Over 67,000 people have seen it now!

I also have put it on a variety of lesser-known video websites. Here it is from a site I like called 5min.com, which only has how-to videos:

On the video screen, one of the little icons on the lower left says Links. If you click on that, you will see a link to my potty training page on this website and to an excellent article, “Errorless Housetraining” by Ian Dunbar.

Sometimes I wonder if I spend too much time on potty training / housetraining / housebreaking puppies, but it’s sad how many people never quite get their dogs properly trained, so this is one way I feel I can help dogs! Many inadequately housetrained puppies end up being given away or worse. If you have a blog or website related to dogs in any way, you are very welcome to embed the code from Youtube or 5min.com in your site.
