Some pet dogs grow up without having completed their house training, and it isn't any fault of theirs. Although housetraining a puppy is rather simple, if it isn't done properly, things may go wrong.

When dogs are kept outside in kennels, for instance, not everyone makes an effort to housetrain them. This means that some pet dogs do not become properly housetrained before they mature.

The toilet is typically only used in a few places throughout the house. The dog will frequently visit these locations, which are typically close to the rooms' entrances or exits.

While some dogs would only defecate inside the home and urinate there, others may defecate inside the house but not urinate. A dog will typically, but not always, sneak away to use the restroom rather than go in front of people.

Not simply when left alone inside the house, your dog may behave in this way at any time. Your dog might return to the house and use the bathroom, even after a walk.

When it comes to housetraining, some dogs only learn one rule: it's improper for them to relieve themselves in front of their owners. This is due to the fact that they would have received a reprimand or punishment for using the bathroom within the home.

Fortunately, housetraining an adult dog can usually be done relatively easily and quickly. However, it does take time and patience, and you must be committed if you want your dog to succeed.

Still, we see someone who refuses to housetrain their dog but still wants a dog sitter who can keep the dog in.

You can't take it for a walk on a leash

The petsitter is not shocked to learn it the hard way

It looks like it's got socks on its ears

This Redditor's sister had a dog who loved hanging out in the backyard

Redditor Ok-Lawfulness-941 has questions they want answered

Why do people take on pets when they are not willing to train them? Potty training takes time, but it's worth the effort. Otherwise you'd spend the rest of the dog's live cleaning up after her. Idiots. I wonder what they'd do if they had children, would they free-range them too?

They do not consider their pet at all

The dog looks like it is wearing a bunny suit

The dog owner should probably not go on the trip

Although housetraining a puppy is very easy, mistakes can and do happen if it isn't done correctly. As a result, some pet dogs do not develop effective housetraining before they reach adulthood.

Fortunately, housetraining an adult dog can usually be accomplished quickly and without too much difficulty. However, if you want your dog to succeed, it does require time and patience, and you must be dedicated.
