How long 'till your Corgi was potty trained {house trained}?

I am just starting out, but I'd like an estimate for how long this house training will take. If you can just post your methods / age at which they became reliably house trained {Like you can let them roam the house on their own} it would be appreciated. way to go

Every dog is different in how quickly they become potty trained! I can't remember exactly how long it took Darby! I used crate training as my method of potty training and it worked very well! I used lots of rewards! Just be patient and be consistent!

Hope that helped! wave

Darby is right. With my sister it took about 2 monthes or so. With me it took only a few weeks. All I have to say is if you see your dog take her out immediately or else she won't get it.

it took a few weeks for Ein to get it but his owner gave up on him being potty trained and gave him to me. I took him out constantly, everytime he looked sidways. it helped to have our family's older dog there to show him the ropes too.

Tegan learned fast. He was crate trained, which I think is the best way to go... personally. He has the temperament of a corgi who ALWAYS is looking to please though, so he loved the attention and kisses he got when he went potty outside. I think it took him about a month before he wasn't messing in the house at all!

I just took her out to potty often, and ALWAYS right before I went to bed. Yes there were accidents but I would use paper towel to clean it up and instead of throwing it away I would toss the droppings out where I wanted her to potty to continually encourage her to go outside. Dogs prefer to potty outside, it's their instinct, all we have to do is help that along =P
Lilli learned quickly and now there are no accidents. =D

It took about a month to paper train Sandy. The people that gave her to us said she was house trained and that she'd cry if she had to go outside. It became obvious that they lied. We figured it might've been that she was at a new place, but when the days turned to weeks, she still wasn't showing signs that she was house trained or learning to be. She figured out how to use the paper after a while via my mom. Still upset about that. I would rather her be house trained.
