Animal Welfare Professionals

Hi wonderful professionals! 

I'm working on timed emails for new pet adopters at our shelter and our first email to new adopters will provide a few resources that address some of the most common issues new adopters face, like potty training. I searched the forum, but I can't find any resources on the site that I could provide to adopters. I will do crate training separately. 

Any potty training resources you can share?

Thank you from Northern California! 

Hi Tina,

Here's some resources you might find useful about housetraining: 

Maddie's University Bringing a New Dog Home course. This course is for fosters and adopters - you can share directly with them. 

Maddie's University Dog Behavior Collection: Tips and Tricks for Adopters, Fosters and the Community - Basic training and cues tab has a housetraining video. This collection is also for fosters and adopters - you can share individual pieces of content or the whole collection.

If you have any comments or feedback about any of these resources, i'd love to hear them :)

Ah! Thank you so much. "Elimination" seems to be the word that did not pop up in my searches. 

I can give you one bit of feedback as to why I would be hesitant to recommend what otherwise looks to be an excellent "new adopter" course: there are no time estimates I can find.

While developing the timed emails and suggesting resources I am highly prioritizing shorter resources unless the resources is very high value. I personally wouldn't expect our fosters or adopters to sign up for a course that they don't know how long will take.
