Any objections if I move this to Housebreaking? That's the noun form, and the bolded title in the first sentence, anyway. Joyous (talk) 02:11, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

It may also be her way of telling you she needs more a.m. attention. (Afterall, look at the amount of attention she gets when you come home!) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 13:14, 13 January 2006 ( talk) 71.240.137.115 (UTC)
Our 4-month old Springer eliminates (in her reduced-sized crate) some time between midnight and six a.m. If I set the alarm for 3, she's fine, but if it is four...
I DON'T WANT HER TO THINK THIS IS ACCEPTABLE!
She does not signal (any other time as well) that she has to eliminate - AND WE REWARD HER WHEN SHE ELIMINATES OUTSIDE.

Wikipedia really isn't a how-to place; it's an encyclopedia. Hence, the article should be more about WHAT housebreaking and not about HOW to do it except by briefly describing possibly a couple of alternative methods in 2 sentences or less. It's starting to read like an authoritative how-to and mehtods here aren't agreed on by everyone. Elf | Talk 21:58, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
The use of the world eliminate in this article is confusing and should be eliminated. I think it must be an euphemism of some sort. But why not use actual words instead of 'eliminate'? Pets that eliminate indoors? What does it even mean, eh? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.210.249.8 ( talk) 00:17, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
The entire article seemed to be about crate training dogs rather than house training - in fact there were SEVENTEEN mentions of crate/crate training/cratetraining. It also only cited one dubious and seemingly unrelated reference.
