Another issue pet owners face when trapped indoors for long periods of time is the potty -- if you've got a housebroken dog but you can't go outside, what do you do? Or, rather, what do you have them do? Dale recommends that owners?create an indoor potty station. "Use newspaper, or if you have several paper bags you can lay them out, or any other substrate you can walk a dog on. Remember, your dog will be crossing her or his legs, not knowing it's OK to go indoors on this new substrate," he says. It's up to you to convince a dog who's only relieved himself on grass or dirt that it's alright to use this new potty station. Pace back and forth over two or three feet of newspaper and encourage him -- even if he doesn't have a specific "Go potty" command, the encouragement can help.
