It took me a month to train my dog how to flush the toilet bowl. Honestly, it's complicated but I've done it. Do you think you can train your dog the proper toilet habit like flushing the toilet bowl?

I know one of my dog's couldn't do that. He has four inch legs--Dachshund.

flushing the toilet? never heard of that before. And you taught your dog this because he uses the toilet or you forget to flush?

You haven't heard about it then your not updated with pet's talent. You can even watch it in the movies nowadays. I got my idea of training my dog how to flush after watching a movie. If their dog can flush the toilet, why can't mine. I trained him well and he learned so fast. Of course, not all kinds of dog can do it. Only those bigger in size.

Ok must not be updated about pets talents. Very interesting though.

it is possible through respect training. With respect training, your dog learns, listen to you, pays more attention, follows your directions, to look at you when you speak to him

Well thats neat! I've never heard of training your dog to do it. My Dane probably could accidentally back into it and flush it.

I'm sure our dogs could be trained to do a lot of different things if we were persistant enough about it. Right now we are happy with the basics.

My dogs probably could if I took the time to train them. I'm just not patient enough for that kind of thing. If I was, I'd teach them to use the toilet too so I wouldn't have to go outside on freezing cold winter days!! LOL
