Please don't use this thread to slag off irresponsible dog owners. I think most of us agree that's been done to death and to be honest they won't take any notice.
The purpose of this thread is to show you how easy it is to teach your dog to urinate/excrete on command. Choose a command, the one I use is 'Be Clean' I know there are more descriptive ones, like have a 'cr**', but you may have to give the command in mixed company and why be crude if it's not needed.
Every time your dog stops to urinate/excrete give the command, even if the dog started to do it before you are ready or is doing it in the wrong place. The purpose is to teach the action to the command. When the dog is finished, praise the dog and give it a treat if you have one (and clear up). This will take about a fortnight or so depending on the breed and intelligence of the dog. Quite soon when you give the command the dog will perform the required action. Even when the dog knows the command and performs, always give praise.
I give this command in the front garden prior to taking the dog for a walk, but I still carry a bag.
Hope this helps
Mike
