Have you embarked on the exciting journey of welcoming a new furry friend into your home?
Whether you're a seasoned dog owner or a first-time puppy parent, toilet training can be a daunting task. But fear not, with some patience, love, and a few helpful tips, you'll have your puppy potty trained in no time.
First things first, establish a consistent routine for your puppy's bathroom breaks. Puppies have small bladders and need to go frequently, so be prepared to take them out every 2-3 hours. Praise and reward your puppy every time they go outside to reinforce positive behaviour.
Accidents will happen, and it's important not to scold or punish your puppy for them. Instead, interrupt them mid-accident with a sharp sound or clap to startle them, and immediately take them outside to finish. Reward them when they do go outside, and clean up any messes inside thoroughly to prevent future accidents in the same spot.
It's also crucial to keep a close eye on your puppy when they're indoors, especially during the early stages of toilet training. If you can't supervise them, confine them to a crate or playpen with access to their designated potty area.
Finally, be patient and consistent. Every puppy learns at their own pace, and setbacks are normal. Celebrate small victories along the way and don't be discouraged by setbacks.
