Third Rule: After playing with your puppy, you can now bring him outdoors with you on a leash. This would give your puppy a hint that it's time to relieve himself.

You cannot expect the potty training session to be perfect. I am sure you will encounter unforeseen circumstances. Well, here are some ways to deal with them.
If you see you pet relieving himself, don't scream or yell. Gently nudge your pet to go outside and after this continue the reward thing by praising your puppy.
However, don't worry. The mess won't be around all the time. All you need to do when you pet does this is to just keep your cool and then you should just continue with the potty training. One thing to remember when you clean your pet's waste; make sure to clean it thoroughly so that it won't leave any smell that may induce your puppy to relieve on that same spot again.
