How do I house break the poor thing...?

I'm getting a 6 month old Norfolk Terrier from a friend, the dog was raised outside and never comes in the house. When I bring it home it will be more of an inside dog. How do I house break the dog? Any suggestions will help. I go to work everyday, adn it will most likely stay in it's crate while i'm gone, how do I transition it so it's not such a shock, as it's used to roaming free?

Answer
That's going to be tuff. For my dogs, I have 3, it was all about positive reinforcement. I would watch them like a hawk, and when they would show signs of needing to go potty (ie: sniffing around in a circle, pawing at the ground after a little bit you can tell when they need to go) I would take them outside immediatley. I also put them on a schedule, every morning and when I get home from work about the same time I let them outside to go potty and when they do they would get a treat and LOTS of praise. Now when they go potty inside I would put their snout very close to it and tell them it's bad in a stern voice and give them a spanking on the butt. Not too hard or anything, it usually doesn't take much for them to get the point. After a few weeks of continuously doing that they got it. None of them have ever had formal obedience training and now they are much older and NEVER have accidents in the house. It's certainly not easy. I hope this helps.
