Mastering potty training for puppies can be difficult if you don’t follow time proven advice of those who have gone before you. Make sure you work as a team with those living in the household. Planning and patience will get the job done quickly.
Don’t try to potty train too early. Any time less than 1 month old is just wasting your time. Plan to have some routines and safe places for the puppy to go.
Dry food, find one that makes his stool consistent. A quality dry food will help him develop good eating habits. It also positively affect how solid his stools are, his potty schedule and his ability to control it, when he has the urge.
Once he shows the need, lead him to the designated place where he can do his thing. Show how he should position himself properly. Do this regularly. If he poops outside of the area, clean the mess immediately and mask the odor. Let him have some fun. Praise him if he does it right. Reinforce the idea regularly.
Again a schedule is most important at this stage. Taking your puppy out to potty too much will wear you down, i.e. every halve hour is too much. Plan around dinner and other activities that you don’t want to interrupt. Having a few other house members chip in also lowers the burden of getting the training done quickly and consistently. You and your puppy should get into a rhythm that both of you start feeling comfortable with. Consistence is the key. All dogs love to hear the praise of their owners.
Routine and repetition are keys to your puppy’s potty training. Do not think of it as work. If you have a team of helpers and stay consistent the puppy will learn quicker.
The first thing you will teach your dog, is the potty is outside. Be consistent and use positive encouragement. Some dogs will refuse to go outside. Just be consistent. Seek other books and articles.
Don’t yell, be patient and your and your puppy will be potty trained in a short time.
After this is mastered you can begin to work on other dog issues like chewing or barking.
