A specific spot in your yard for bathroom breaks during inclement weather. This consistency helps reinforce your dog's potty habits.
Set up a covered or sheltered area near the designated potty spot, so your dog feels comfortable and protected from rain or snow.
Reward your dog with praise and treats when they successfully go potty outside, encouraging them to repeat the behavior in all weather conditions.
Understand that accidents might happen during training. Stay patient, consistent, and avoid scolding your dog for accidents.
Keep a close eye on your dog during bathroom trips in bad weather. Limit the time outside to prevent them from getting too cold or uncomfortable.
Consider getting your dog a waterproof coat or boots to keep them dry and warm during bathroom breaks in snow or rain.
Indoor potty solutions like pee pads or grass patches for extreme weather days when going outside is not feasible.
