Best way to house train a puppy!

[Straightliner]

My way may not suite every one .But it has always worked for me.
I believe in crate training it may seem mean but it starts the dog off right .
The puppy will normally cry for the first week but he will get use to the crate.. and even begin favor it.
I suggest metal crates with adjustable divider so he grows with it .
Plus he can see all around his area .

House breaking sucks but must be done.
Puppies are like people they get use to a routine .
When you get up the dog must go out . First things first when puppies get excited they pee .
Take the puppy straight from kennel to were he will be going to use the bathroom .
Make it a habit, dogs get comfortable going in the same area. If he has accidents but u didnt see
him do it take him to the area let him see it then tell him bad take him out to were he should go...
the whole time telling him to go the bathroom . Even if he only goes pee praise him make him feel
good u may give treats (but they get spoiled that way) plus they will get smarter and my only go pee
to get back to the house so u give him the treat.
Another example they take to routine. The first few weeks are tough.. puppies will have accidents..
be strong don't give up on the pup.. some breeds do take to house breaking faster then other breeds
so be patient . Work with them . The more u take em out the faster they learn.

Never leave food in kennel if u do you will learn, why not to. It's terrible, water in morning food water after u get home and let them out to do there business,the more u do with your pup the better and faster he will learn, socializing is always the best thing for puppies .

Very nice.


Another way, is take them out every two hours at night, so they get into a routine. Then go to three, and four, and so on. They'll soon catch on if they're like my dogs.

Now, we just need to work on my brother. XD

LOLOL

could you imagine if it took years.. to house break a dog..
I think dog ownership would not be nearly as high as it is..
