(NAPSI)-There are doggone helpful ways to help you and your pet feel more happy at home.

Just like most people like to be rewarded for their achievements, so do pets.

If you're housebreaking a dog or other animal, reward successes with a hug. Your tone of voice alone can let an animal know you're proud.

Teach your animal which places at home not to jump or sit on. A firm "no" in a slightly raised voice may be enough to let your pet know.

Even with the best pets, accidents can happen at home. This is where pet care products can help.

One product to try is the Simple Solutionª Stain and Odor Remover. It is safe for use on carpets, upholstery, pet bedding, clothing, tile, concrete, brick or any other surface around your home where water is safe to use.

Simple Solutionª works through a natural bacteria enzyme process and works on both new and old problem areas. It removes not only stains and odors from pet urine, but also stains from food, soda, coffe, blood, red wine and more.

Pet care experts recommend that you be patient when housebreaking a puppy. The process may take several weeks. Anticipate and plan "potty" times. Your puppy will need to go upon waking, eating and drinking, playing and before going to sleep. By having certain cleaning products on hand, pet owners can be prepared for accidents.

Simple Solutionª, is available at national pet store chains like PetsMart and Petco as well as many other pet stores and pet supply catalogs.
