I am positive that each and every one of you with new dogs would like a magic potion that would allow you to create a perfectly potty trained puppy. I have one keyword that will summarize your potty training experience: PATIENCE. Potty training is an act of patience and you must maintain yours at all times. Don’t loose your cool and don’t punish your puppy for an accident you didn’t catch him or her in the middle of it. Just Clean up accidents.
