    We use a string of bells hanging from the back door. It took my pup about half a day to figure out that if he rang the bells we’d let him outside

      We have bells.
      About ½ the time, she makes a gesture towards the bell, misses, and just barks at me.

      Then, occasionally, she’ll get excited by the bark, find a stuffie, and forget that she even wanted to go outside. The things we do for love.

      Note: hang the bells next to the door so the dog doesn’t associate every door open with ringing the bells. This helped us on puppy number two not trying to ask to go outside to play 😂.
