Housetraining On The Go (3)

When a dog is unwilling to eliminate in new public places it can create huge traveling problems. Some dogs will try to hold it as long as they can, rather than pee or poop at a rest stop, motel or weekend dog show. This can cause the dog a lot of discomfort and even generate health problems.

Teaching your pup to potty when given a verbal cue, such as “go potty”, will help him get over his worries about eliminating in new places. Hearing the potty cue at home and being praised for doing his business will smooth the way to pottying on strange turf.

Here's the trick that will make unfamiliar ground smell more like home: When your dog pees before leaving home, blot up some of the urine with a paper towel and put it in a plastic zip-sealed bag. Take that with you on your trip.

When you take your dog for a potty stop, first pour a few tablespoons of water into the bag. Let the urine-scented water drip out onto the ground in a couple of places about 5 feet apart. You can reseal the bag and use it again at other rest stops.

After you put the bag away, take your dog to the area you just scented with his urine. Stand there with him, keeping him in view from the corner of your eye. He'll sniff those spots you scented, recognize his urine odor and perhaps wonder why he doesn't recognize the place. Praise him calmly when he sniffs the urine spots and say his potty cue to him. If he relieves himself, praise quietly and wait a few more minutes in case he has more business to do.

Time To Hit The Road

Once your dog has mastered pottying on leash and pottying where other dogs have been, the next step is to take him on a lot of short trips, so he can practice appropriate potty behavior in different locations.

Start with car rides to places 15 minutes to an hour from home. When you get where you're going, take your dog for a pleasant on-leash walk. Let him do a good bit of sniffing in areas where it would be OK for him to eliminate. If he sniffs intently at several spots in one area, chances are good that dogs have left their urine scent there. Calmly encourage your dog to do likewise and praise him quietly if he does.

Take rides to dog-friendly parks and other areas where your dog can sniff and explore on his leash. Praise him calmly when he sniffs so he'll get the idea that it's alright for dogs to potty there, and maybe he'll try it, too. If he does potty, calmly praise him, then give him some more time to sniff around – he might do it again.

Rest-Stop Etiquette

If you're driving for any major length of distance, safety experts say you'll stay more alert if you stop at least once an hour to get out of your vehicle and walk around. Not only is it good for driver safety, it's a perfect time to take your dog out and walk him around as well.

If there are other dogs at the rest stop, try not to intrude on their space. They're there to do business, too, and taking your dog up to them will distract them from their job. Also, you have no way of knowing how friendly the other dogs are so don't tempt fate by getting too close!

Pet areas at many highway rest stops are littered with dog poop that irresponsible dog owners didn't bother picking up. Don't add to that disgusting problem – always clean up after your dog when he defecates.

Special bags are made for this purpose, and some rest areas and parks provide them from free baggy dispensers. However, poop bags probably won't be provided at most of the places you stop so always bring a few bags with you.

You don't need special poop bags - any plastic bag big enough to slip over your hand will do. To clean up after your dog using a bag put your hand inside the empty bag, pick up the poop using the bag like a glove, turn the bag inside out to surround the poop and tie it off. Then dispose of the bag in a trash can. If a trash can isn't available, take the bagged poop with you and dispose of it when you find one.

Motor Homes & Boats

If you'll be taking your dog on trips in your motor home or boat, these are special potty-time considerations. Each RV park or harbor has its own pet-related rules. Often, they're posted where visitors can easily read them. If you don't see the local dog rules posted, ask the person who checks you in when you pay your camping or slip fee.

If your dog is small, you might consider litter box training him. When your dog needs to relieve himself, he'll be able to use the litter box and you won't need to interrupt your trip. This can make it much easier on the dog and on you.

Low-sided plastic storage boxes that are made for sliding under beds make good travel litter boxes. They're a good size for most small dogs and you can put the lid on it between uses. This will keep the litter from spilling and will also prevent any stinky odor from drifting. Your dog can learn to tell you when he needs to use the litter box, just as he asks you to open the door at home when he needs to potty.
