Puppy House
Training Tips Do's And Don'ts
Correct
puppy house training is the first priority when you take home your new
puppy. it is not such a difficult task as some people imagine. I have
known people to take their dogs to an animal shelter because of the
mess their puppy made because there was no toilet area.
A puppy is like a baby and has to be told what to do first. So
remember puppy house training need not be a chore. Your puppy wants to
love you and make you proud of him. Always, always use plenty of praise
when he does something for you.
All dog training books say it is important to establish proper toilet
habits when the puppy is young, since these habits can last a lifetime,
and be very hard to break once they are established. Puppy house
training is very important for the owner to house train the puppy
properly.
In most cases, true puppy house training cannot begin until the puppy
is six months old. Puppies younger than this generally lack the bowel
and bladder control that is needed for true house training.
Puppies younger than six months should be confined to a small, puppy
proofed room which it can use as its toilet area when the owner cannot
supervise them. The entire floor of the room should be covered with
newspapers or similar absorbent materials, and the paper changed every
time it is soiled.
As the puppy gets older, the amount of paper used can be reduced as the
puppy begins to establish a preferred toilet area. It is this preferred
toilet area that will form the basis of later puppy house training.
The Do’s of House Training Your Puppy:
Ø Always provide the puppy with constant, unrestricted access to the
established toilet area.
Ø When you are at home, take the puppy to the toilet area every 45
minutes.
Ø When you are not at home or cannot supervise the puppy, you must be
sure the puppy cannot make a mistake. This means confining the puppy to
a small area that has been thoroughly puppy proofed. Puppy proofing a
room is very similar to baby proofing a room, since puppies chew on
everything.
Ø Always provide a toilet area that does not resemble anything in your
home. Training the puppy to eliminate on concrete, blacktop, grass or
dirt is a good idea. The puppy should never be encouraged to eliminate
on anything that resembles the hardwood flooring, tile or carpet he may
encounter in a home.
Ø Praise and reward your puppy every time he eliminates in the
established toilet area. The puppy must learn to associate toileting in
the established areas with good things, like treats, toys and praise
from his owner.
Ø Always keep a set schedule when feeding your puppy, and provide
constant access to fresh, clean drinking water. A consistent feeding
schedule equals a consistent toilet schedule.
Ø Using a dog cages can be a big help in helping a puppy develop self
control. The concept behind dog cage training is that the puppy will
not want to toilet in his bed area.
Ø And finally, it is important to be patient when pupy house training a
puppy. House training can take as long as several months, but it is
much easier to pupy house train right the first time than to retrain a
problem dog.
