A Few Tips To Help Your Housebreak Your Puppy
Housebreaking a dog or puppy is often the most stressful aspect of owning a pet. However, the process can be less challenging if you have a few tips to help you out. This article will give you pointers on dog potty training based around the concept of accident prevention rather than punishment.
Most dogs are housebroken as puppies, so let’s start with talking about potty training a new puppy. First, it is important to know that puppies do have limited bladder control, so accidents are going to happen. The first thing you need to do is introduce your puppy to a crate, a place that is his own and where he can be confined when you are unable to watch him. This is one of the best ways to prevent your puppy from soiling areas around the house. There are housebreaking pads available at pet stores that you can place in your puppy’s crate for him to go on while you are away.
Keeping to a regular schedule is the key to preventing accidents and potty training your dog or puppy. Take your dog out first thing in the morning, thirty minutes after every meal, and right before bed. Also, feed your puppy on a strict schedule. If it goes in on a schedule, it will come out on a schedule! It is important to initially praise your dog every time you take him out and he does his business. This helps reinforce to the animal that this is the correct spot to eliminate in.
When an accident does occur, don’t get upset or hit your dog. If you didn’t catch him in the act, simply put him in his crate while you clean up the mess. There is no point in trying to punish him, as he will not know why he is in trouble. If you do catch him in the act, giving him a firm ‘No!’ will let him know you are upset. Immediately take him to the proper spot outside and praise him if he goes again.
Though it requires dedication and patience on your part, training your dog by keeping to a routine to avoid messes in the first place is much more effective than trying to teach him through punishment. Now that you have succeeded in dog potty training, you can move on to teaching him to bring you the remote! Or for the little or arthritic dog, train him to use dog stairs! Even if your dog is perfectly healthy, pet steps can greatly reduce the amount of impact your dog’s joints receive.
when potty training my pup can i use both crate training and puppy pads?
we plan on crate training when he gets here. (he’s only 5 weeks and not ready to come home) but i was wondering if i could also use the puppy pads. or would that be too confusing?
I’m definitely going to crate train but I’m considering the pads also cause I know i can’t keep my eye on him 24-7. so if he does accidentally go i wanted to train him to go on the pads just in case. is that okay?
to answer your question yes you can use both but remember you are training him for outdoor but also saying it’s ok to go indoors.
i would only train for outdoors…there will not be any confusion because if he/she goes indoors and you get mad they don’t know why sometimes it is ok to go in and ok to go out..
you have to be very clear cut with them.
it is either yes or no not sometimes with anything you try to train…
good luck
