Some owners treat puppies and new dogs poorly during the potty training and retraining period and then wonder later why they don’t have a good relationship with their dogs. There is a lot of advice online about how to potty train a dog, some good, some inhumane. A new dog owner may not know the difference. With that in mind, what are your tips for humanely potty training a dog?

It's like asking "IS IT OKAY TO HIT CHILDREN?" What do you think? There are ways to train a dog..its like training a child. How about rewarding them if they do what you ask them to do? Psychologically speaking, that works. It takes patience.
