Potty Training Your Puppy Dog

Potty Training Your Puppy Dog
By Craig McPherson

When you first bring your puppy home, it would be best to put it into a box with newspaper on the outside of the box. Make sure that the puppy can jump over the sides of the box so it can go to the toilet when it needs. Make the pup a bed in the box with some old clean rags or blankets. Try to put a little amount of rags in the box for the pup's bed, because if the pup does WET, then you wont have much to clean up.

The pup will need a little something of yours to have next to itself in the box. Maybe you may like to use an old sock or ripped shirt, which has your personal smell on it, some people like to wrap a ticking clock in the cloth to symbolise a heartbeat, better still, if you were to take a toy with you when you buy the pup, get all the pups and the mum to play with the toy. This will obtain the smell of the litter and the mum. These methods may help the pup to sleep better as well as you.

It can also help to create an early bonding between you and your animal.

Continue this for the first few days.

Then you must place the dog into its permanent sleeping area.

When the pup wakes in the morning pick it up and take it outdoors where you want the dog go to the toilet. Pick a spot that is accessible for the pup to get to and easy for you to clean. Once you place the pup on the area, you can assist the dog in starting urination by rubbing its genitals. The mother usually does this by licking the pup in the genitals, then it urinates. This stimulant brings on the response of urination as soon as the pup does its business "PRAISE IMMEDIATELY". Then you can take the pup back to its place of boarding.

If you were to wait a while the pup should urinate on its own and besides rubbing this area is usually only for very young pups (0-5 weeks).

If the pup urinates as you pick it up or upon a greeting then the pup has week nerves (temperament). This can be overcome by creating confidence in your dog and not doing anything when this happens. If you reassure the dog then you are probably rewarding this behaviour.

You may like to carry the dog to the spot if it is a fair distance down the garden, then gradually after a few days encourage the pup to the site from a short distance from the site. Increase the distance only when the pup learns it has positioned itself correctly. If it "goes" in the wrong spot, pick it up and show it the correct spot by placing the dog gently down where your would like it to go. Do not be hard on the young dog and don't forget to praise even when the dog gets it right quite a few times.

Important: Do Not rub the dogs nose in its mess if it makes a mistake, just clean up the mess, this is your fault not the dogs fault.
