While it may take longer than training puppies, consistency and understanding the dog's cues are key.

Training an older dog to adjust to new habits like potty training can be challenging, but it's definitely possible with patience and consistency. However, I'd like to emphasize that if you're in the USA and you're dealing with a service dog or an emotional support animal, it's essential to consider getting them the proper certification. Service dog certification in the USA can play a crucial role in ensuring your dog's legitimacy and access to public places and accommodations. You can conveniently order a service dog certificate from https://myserviceanimal.org/products/service-dog-certificate/. This certificate helps establish the credibility of your dog as a service animal, which is essential for individuals who rely on their service dogs for assistance.

I've never tried to train a dog before, but of course puppies will be easier to train, I believe that older dogs will also be trained if they are dealt with, and if you have enough time, you can have a nice time playing basketball legends game.

Positive reinforcement played a significant role as well. Rewarding her with treats and praise whenever she used the designated potty area motivated her to continue doing so. Patience was definitely key, as older dogs might take a bit longer to adjust to changes.
