Potty and house training tips for new dog , please?
How do I go about training our new family member and correcting their "accidents" and bad behaviors? Do I have to crate train them as well? It seems like everyone is these days but the one dog i previously owned, didnt need one and id like to keep it that way.
With potty training you want to take the pup out side on a leash, even if you have a fenced in yard have lots of treats on hand, once pup is out side he will be wanting to play but don't let him sniff around and when he finally goes potty heavily praise him for it "good boy" real uppity and cheerful then give him a treat and let him off the leash to play. then in about 2 hours take him out again and repet the whole thing except when you go to take him out say let's go potty and take him to the exact same spot he did his business. he will go, repeat the praising and treats and let of leash once again to play, puppies love praise and rewards, their minds do not comprehend fully till they are about 4 months old but if you start early so will they. This has worked on all 5 of my dogs so Good Luck.
Crate Training is good for them but is NOT neccesary, if you want to crate train you can but you don't have too. Puppies that are crate trained tend to be really excited when out. If you crate train do not put puppy in there for bad behavior because this will only make him dislike the crate. Put him in there at night to go to sleep with a little blanket or a flat doggy bed you don't want the cage to be huge or too small, if the cage is too big then puppy will more than likely potty in it, You want the puppy to have enough room to be able to turn around and stretch, but you don't want him too cramped up. Only 3 of my dogs are crate trained and I rarely ever use them. My babies sleep with me (even though I am supposed to be the leader in the pack) I know but I cant help but not to let them do it. But don't let them sleep with you unless you want to make it a permanent habbit, If there is anything else I can help you with feel free to e-mail me. Good Luck
