Once our dogs are no longer puppies, we seem to have some sense of entitlement that grown-up dogs should go outside, because “they should know better.” But if they’re going to the bathroom in the house, you can either get upset about it and put on a threat display as any agitated primate would—scaring the heck out of your dog in the process—or you can get over it and give him a treat for going outside. Trust me, the latter works a lot better.
