Have you ever heard of a dog house training themselves?

Posted on September 30th, 2009 by admin

HERE'S A GREAT TIP! I've been following this dog trainer for a long time (I love her books!) and was really psyched to see that she has a video up now about this. It's only a couple minutes long but it's really helpful. Click on the video to watch it. It should answer your questions...

We just adopted a Chow/Husky mix from the shelter and I swear, he is perfect in every way. He has the best temperment, doesn’t chase my cats, and has even house trained himself. When we adopted him we got to talk to the person who helped rescue him and she has known him his entire life. He was a dog that never was allowed to interact with his humans and for sure was never allowed inside. He was also probably hit in the head alot and kicked. We’ve had him inside with us since we brought him home and he hasn’t had a single accident, not even when he REALLY had to go. He’s been very good at going to the door when he needs to go out. Anyone ever heard of this?

congrats on adopting such a well behaved dog!
i’ve never heard of this, but my friend adopted a mini schnauzer puppy who was nearly PERFECT!! he didnt bite, wasnt yappy, learnt sit in just a few days and you could accedently poke him in the eye and he wouldnt care!! he wouldnt hurt a fly (even if it bit him on the nose, although this has never happened!!) and they say he was good at potty training. the only downside to him was that he loved getting tangled in his lead!! ^_^

maybe its a human who has died and reincarnated into a good dog?

    I think your very lucky to have found such a great dog. Count your blessings! Most people here cant seem to house train a puppy never mind a adult dog!

    Best of luck with your dog!

    Once dogs figure out that the other dogs do their business out side they prefer to do it too. Some never need houuse training mine took a couple months. Normally they get it by the time they are six months.

    No not heard of this before,you have a very special dog.Perhaps he had it that hard in the past he knows now hes not going to be beaten and left out in the cold so he is just showing his affection in this very special way.

    I have had my doberman since she was a pup, she only ever had 2 or 3 accidents in the house. Then by day 3, she held her bladder until i let her out in the morning, it was out to pee last thing at night, in bed with me, then up early for a toilet break. I used to get a real laugh watching her first thing in the morning, we were getting heavy dews at the time, and she just hated walking on wet grass, so she would just kind of hang over the edge of the path, or she would tiptoe out to the only patch of sun.

    I’m glad your dog has found such a good home with you. It sounds like you guys are a good fit for one another.

    No, dogs don’t really housetrain themselves. You said he was never allowed inside at his old home – maybe he just got so accustomed, over an extended period of time, to peeing on soil/grass?

    Though I always joke that my dog housetrained herself because we had so few problems with her.
