How can I teach my 13 week old pup to go sit at the door when she has to go outside?
Full Question:
We have a 13 week old maltipoo (maltese/poodle) who is doing pretty well with housebreaking. We got into the habit of taking him outside every few hours and giving the command "go potty" which he has now learned. The problem is, he doesn't understand that he should go to the door when he needs to go. Instead, he'll hold it until we take him out. I would really like to get to the point where he can tell us he has to go, instead of us taking him out all the time. How can we teach him to go and sit at the door?

When you figure out how to train a 13 week old dog to tell you they want to go outside – send me an email and tell me how.
