Ring the bell!!!!!!
Just thought I would share my "going to the bathroom" training.
When Norton was a puppy and would start to go on the floor, DH and I would run and pick him up, slap his paw against a small bell hanging from the door to outside, and take him to his pee spot.
After a while of doing this, really only about a week or so, whenever he wanted to go, he would "ring the bell"!
People are amazed by him, and he is so freakin cute when he stands by the door ringing away... 
Just make sure you take the bell with you if you go away!!!!!

Re: Ring the bell!!!!!!
Our pup Piper rings a bell too. BT's don't bark much so its her way to let us know she needs to go out. She learned to ring it very quickly, about 3 days. Her little sister Paisley hasn't picked it up though....we like to say she's all heart and no brains, just a lover-kins. I don't think she'll ever really get the bell thing, but she is potty trained. We just let Paisley out now when Piper rings the bell.

Re: Ring the bell!!!!!!
We tried that but Luna is part cat (she's a big pvssy) and was TERRIFIED of the bells......
She just gives us the stare-down when she needs to go out.....

Re: Ring the bell!!!!!!
My friends did that too. It was so funny to see Luigi run to the door and bang his bell!

Every time your dog has an accident, you ring the bell and take him for a walk. Then every time you are going to take the dog for a walk you ring the bell and call him. He will get the hang of it after a while and learn to "tell" you when he needs to go out.
