There are three forms of learning
1. Classical conditioning – each time your dog defecates give it a piece of meat. Once your dog has associated the meat with defecation you can take your dog to the unused dog defecation areas or use your piece of paper and present it with a piece of meat. The dog will associate.
2. Operant conditioning – praise your dog when it defecates in the unused dog defecation areas or on a piece of paper and kick it if it defecates elsewhere.
3. Social learning – when you are at the unused dog defecation areas you can defecate. Make sure your dog observes this behavior. On the other hand you can do the same thing with your paper.

Of all three forms of learning the first two might be more circumspect. Hope this helps

Thanks very much for all your information. My dog is knowing how to pee on the newspaper now. Sounds good. We are also thinking to join the SPCA training course but have to line up for a month..... :lol:
