HOUSE TRAINING YOUR PUPPY


There are three three things to consider during puppy house training - observant, consistent and patient.
1. Puppies smell the last place they did their business. Sniffing the ground to find their mark is part of dog behavior. Once you notice it, distract him and take him out as soon as possible. Your attitude and being observant is part of puppy house training.
2. Be consistent in your training, especially in the potty schedule. Especially, right after each meal. Give him a treat to walk or play with for 15 minutes then go out. Don’t get discouraged, remember that you are training your puppy and this is part of being consistent.
3. Be patient, do not expect much immediate progress, the stage can last from two to six months depending on the training, but the right puppy house training and you can do it within a week. Yelling does not help because he can not understand and physical abuse such as slapping, hitting can lead to other dog behavior problems.
