Summary: Archita was seeking advice on training her Beagle to poop inside, in the washroom, due to the difficulty and danger of going outside during the rainy season. Sunny advises that dogs naturally dislike eliminating in their 'den' and it's not generally recommended, but provides steps on how to create an association between a command word and the act of pooping for training purposes. However, he advised Archita not to stop taking the dog for walks outside once it learns to use the washroom, as it can create mental issues. When asked about the safety of going out in the rain, Sunny recommended trying to take the dog out when it's not raining as keeping them from natural behaviors could impact their mental health.

How can I train my Beagle to use the washroom for poop during rainy seasons?
Sir my Beagle only wants to go down for poop….it’s very difficult during the rainy season and dangerous too….how should I train him to use the washroom for poop….he uses the washroom for pee…. please guide me
Mostly, I can guide you on behaviors that are natural for dogs. Peeing and pooping in the house (den) is not natural for them, and they dislike it very much.
Some dogs become habitual of peeing and pooping at home, but I don’t recommend that.
Now, if you want to train your dog to go potty in the washroom, here is the process:
1. Create an association between a word and pooping. Meaning, whenever he is pooping outside, just before that, you will say “Go Potty” (or anything). Once he is done, praise him.
2. Be consistent with this process so that the dog can develop an association of the word with the activity.
3. Practice outside by taking him to any spot and saying “Go Potty.” See if he has grasped that or not.
4. Once he has developed a strong association due to your consistent efforts, then…
5. You can try this at home as well.
However, many people stop taking their dogs outside for walks once the dog learns how to potty and pee in the washroom. Don’t make this mistake, as it can create many mental issues in the dog and ruin the relationship.
Sir is it safe if I take him for poop during rain. My dr said it is not safe for him. He can catch cold+ tick and flea too… what is the alternative even if I have tried the terrace but it didn’t work….
Keeping the dog away from nature and their natural behavior like going out for susu and potty impacts their mental health long term. So try to take him out when it is not raining, he is an adult dog, and adult dogs like to go for potty far away from their home.
