| For training your puppy,
establishing good habits early on in housetraining. If you allow your puppy
to eliminate every where and any where he wants in your home, you will have
to live with it forever, or go through some time-consuming, tedious
retraining later on.
A dog is either housetrained or not. There is no such thing as weekly 'accidents.' A truly housetrained dog will NEVER eliminate in your house unless forced to do so or because of illness or excessively long confinement. Don't expect your puppy to be reliably housetrained until it is at least 6 months old. Once a habit is established, it is difficult to break, therefore, do not let your pup form bad habits in the first place. -Praise and reward your puppy each and every time possible for eliminating in his toilet area. -Feed your puppy at regular times. What goes in on schedule will come out on schedule. -Use a crate to help your puppy develop self control. Confine him for gradually increasing periods of time when you are home to monitor him. -Be patient. It can take until the dog is 6 months old for him to be housetrained house training puppy courtesy www.perfectpaws.com |
