Puppy Potty Training

See my post: exactly how long does it take to potty train a puppy? (longer than many people expect!)

The fundamental idea is to disregard any type of “accidents” as well as to reward the puppy when she does go outside. This implies you requirement to take her to the exact same area outside extremely often. When I got my new lab puppy, Rip, I was taking him outside to go potty every 30 minutes!

When you can’t supervise your puppy, put him in a kennel or an ex-pen or at least a gated-off area.

I typically do not suggest puppy pads, indoor turf for dogs or newspapers. This adds an extra, unnecessary step as well as teaches the canine to pee indoors.

Do not pick your puppy up each time she is scared.

It’s natural for humans to comfort our “babies,” however dogs are not babies. Coddling a puppy only produces an insecure dog. Dogs requirement to discover exactly how to offer with their surroundings. If your timid puppy cowers behind you, the very best thing you can do for her is walk away.

Teach her that she gets affection from you only when she is sitting or lying down quietly as well as patiently.
