Purchase options and add-ons
Let’s face it, puppies can be a little stubborn and even the sweetest pet owners can get stressed and frustrated with poor training results. Unfortunately, most pet owners still use old and ineffective housetraining methods that simply don't work and can ultimately lead to behavioral problems down the road.
Failed or long-drawn-out housetraining can be avoided by learning the correct way to house train your dog.
No one wants to spend months housebreaking their pup when he's pottying all over the house. Especially when you realize other people are getting it done easily and painlessly in as little as 7 days.
The old method of yelling, spanking, or even pushing your dog's nose into its pee or poop is one of the worst methods you can utilize. This can cause your pup to become frightened of you and ruin your pup's trust in you. Plus experts have made very clear is that punishment is the least effective training method.
In fact, it's been proven that in most cases, dogs don't even know why they're being punished.
The truth is, you don't need to use abusive, slow, and ineffective house training methods ever again.
You're about to learn how you can house train your puppy quickly and easily, without any yelling or stressing out you or your pup.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2025This read is a well laid out plan to get your puppy housebroken in a positive and straightforward manner. From day one, my puppy got it. I adopted a 3-month-old puppy from the pound.
At the pound, they have no choice but to go in their kennel. This puppy would try and go potty on my door mats, thinking those were placed there for her use.
I followed the steps in the book, and puppy was quick to let us know when she had to potty, then would head to the designated spot outside. There were only a couple of accidents in the house, and I took her outside to finish, then quietly clean up any mess. It was a very simple stress-free process!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2024I’m now working on housebreaking two puppies! This book has helped very much, although it did tend to be repetitive.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2025Very helpful for anyone considering getting a puppy or dog. It doesn't sugar-coat the responsibility and commitment while sharing the rewards. I highly recommend it.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2022My puppy (not my first) was having the hardest time with potty training I’ve had my puppies potty trained by 8-10weeks but my German Shepard was a rescue I got her at 13weeks and it was my first time having to UNDUE her bad behavior this book has a lot of great information for beginners but it was not what I was needing still would recommend it tho
- Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2025This easy to read book is a must for all new puppy owners. I've had many puppies but still learned so much from this book. Highly recommended for successful puppy training!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2025I have a two year old Havenese puppy
I have found this little book to be an excellent training source to housebreak him and with fun. He doesn’t even know he is in training. I will look into other training books written by this author. I wasn’t aware why my dog went to the same spot to deficate . Now I do. Thanks.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2024Still working on it!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2024Don’t let the title mislead you in thinking this book is just about ‘housebreaking your puppy’. It is much more than that. Ken Phillips talks about many things you need to know about your pup to help them become confident and well adapted to become a valuable addition to your family. I took a lot away from Ken’s advice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good clear advice and methods
I sampled many books before deciding on this one.
He gets straight to the point without all the unnecessary waffle beforehand ....I want to know how to potty train my new puppy not know his history!
And it seemed to work

5.0 out of 5 stars Very valuable information to help potty train your pup
This book has very valuable information. It made a tremendous difference with potty training my pup. She's 12 weeks old and very rarely has an accident now. She understands the process thanks to info in this book.
- Simon BarnardReviewed in the United Kingdom on March 20, 2021
4.0 out of 5 stars Good base guide
Covers how to get your puppy heartbroken and a bit about general dog training techniques. A bit repetitive in places and contradicts itself on a couple of occasions, but quite concise and informative. Worthy of 4 stars.
