Psychology, Fear Free Certified

Behavior
Potty training is one of the most
common complaints new puppy parents have, yet we have very little data on the
issue. Alexandre Rossi and Sarah Rodriguez conducted a study to find answers to
some of the most common potty training questions clients ask trainers. They
will use the information gathered from the study to answer questions such as
“Is it normal for my puppy to still be having accidents at this age?”; “How
long will it take to potty train my puppy?”; “Is it faster to teach them to go
potty indoors or outdoors?”, and much more. Alexandre and Sarah will discuss
their research findings and talk about how trainers can use this information to
help clients achieve potty training success.

how you can start preparing clients now, and how to treat it once it occurs.
