Puppy House Training – More Potty Tips
Puppy House Training
I have received many questions on puppy house training so I figured I would include more tips on potty training your puppy. Here are a couple more I thought of if you are still having problems.
The first tip for puppy house training is to try using paper or puppy training pads in the area in your house where they can go to the bathroom, preferably a tile floor that is easy to cleanup. Some training pads are scented and will attract the puppies. If you see the puppy sniffing the area, quickly pick them up and take them outside to potty. After the puppy uses the pad to potty you will want to start training them to go outside. To do this, place another pad outside. After a few times of going potty outside remove the pad from inside the house.
The next tip for puppy house training is to use a crate. I will go into more detail about crate training in another blog. The basic idea is to use the puppy’s natural instinct for our benefit. They do not want to go to the bathroom in the same area that they lay down in, I don’t blame them. Take them out of the crate to go potty and place them back in the crate while you are gone or overnight. Puppies will not like the crate at first but after time they will get use to it. If you are running out of options you can try this technique to house train your puppy.
