Puppy Training Kennel

What is the best method for house training my puppy?

I have a 3 month old Boston Terrier and have been trying to house train him. We just take him out every hour or so and he has done ok. I have read about the kennel training method and we were using the pee pads but he would still pee in the floor. What method is the best? How long should it take for him to be fully house trained?

Ah, yes. House training. The basis of dog training itself! Here's what you got to do.

Ditch the puppy pads. Waste of money, unless you expect your dog to use them for the rest of his life. You want him to use the backyard instead.

You first need to buy a crate. Only get one that your puppy would have enough room to eat and sleep there. Yes, put the food bowl in his crate. This way, he will be less likely to want to use it as a toilet. Dogs tend to not like to use the area they eat and sleep in as a toilet.

Every morning when you wake up, take your pup outside. Watch him closely for ten minutes. If he goes potty, rush over and congratulate him. Then, take him inside and allow him to play, run around the house, and eat a few small treats. In a few hours take him outside again and do the same.
BUT if he doesn't go to the bathroom. Say nothing, just scoop him up and crate him for another half hour or so. Soon, he will get the idea that going to the bathroom outside is a good thing!

What about accidents?
When your dog has any misconduct (accidents, growling, barking, jumping, biting) you have to do this. Look down on him with a firm expression and say loud and firm "NO." If he cowers down, crate him for about a half hour. Then let him out again. If he challenges you when you say no, repeat yourself more firmly and louder until he eventually cowers.

Remember, the more time you spend training your dog and laying down the rules in the first year, the better dog you will have in the long run.
