Aging and Training Pets

Hi all,

I have two questions. One being how do I age up a puppy or pet if my auto aging is turned off? My second being I have been taking the puppy outside as asking them to go the the bathroom and they do and then I have a sim praise them. Is this a successful way to potty train them? Or should there be a snack involved? Also, are kids not able to bring pets up and down the stairs?

  • I don't have any other pack just cats and dogs and the main game

    I can't find the treat.


    If your sim has a high vet skill they can make it or you can buy it from the vet's office at the little refrigerator.
  • As for when do you know if your pet has learned the trick? You should get a pop-up letting you know (animal's name) has learned how to -----. The way you're going about the potty training is just the way to do it. Unless, in RL, it's a Beagle. Then you give them treats as incentives. In the game, I don't think it's entirely necessary, but I give the dogs a treat because it's a friendly thing to do.
