housebreak
Teach indoor manners
To housebreak a pet is to train it to relieve itself outdoors or in a designated spot: It took three months to housebreak the puppy.
The past participle housebroken describes an animal so trained, and extends figuratively to people who've learned to behave acceptably in polite company: He's brilliant but not yet housebroken.
