If there is one thing I always make it a point to tell everyone who wishes to adopt a pug puppy is how hectic they are to potty train. They have way more frequent toilet trips. This is because their bladders are so tiny and their metabolism so high.
So if you just brought home your pup and are wondering how to go about potty training him to pee outside. Here’s how to do it.
How to Train A Pug Puppy to Pee Outside? Take note of his behavior just before he eliminates, establish a toileting schedule, pick out a potty area, and take him out every time they show signs of wanting to potty.
To make this whole process easy for you, let’s look at how to do it step by step. Don’t forget to check out our huge resource on potty training Pugs.

Step 1. Teach Your Puppy How to Pee on Cue
The first step is to teach them cue words so you two can be able to communicate.
There are plenty of cue words you can use like “here”, “busy”, “hurry” and so forth. The idea here is to use a cue word they can understand and always relate to toileting. You can even just use “poo” and “pee”.
Remember to always use this word anytime you are taking your puppy out to eliminate and when instructing him to potty.
Also ensure that when you use this cue word, toileting is all that is going to happen. Do not get him distracted with play as he may get confused about what exactly the cue word means. As well, don’t use it any other time but only when going to the potty area.
