Some people have a hard time potty training their puppies, so this article will tell you how we potty train our puppy in a week. Potty training your puppy doesn’t have to be a daunting task.

When my family had a puppy, I dreaded trying to potty train him. In the past, I always had a hard time potty training puppies and usually gave up on making them outdoor dogs or finding them a new home. This time, he was determined to get the job done.

My first piece of advice to new puppy owners is to get a crate that you can keep in your home. We put a nice cozy bed in our puppy’s crate, and he has never been afraid of his crate or not wanting to go in it. If we took our pup out for the night, he would often come into the house and go straight into the crate, thinking it was time to go to bed. He tries not to use the cage as a punishment, or he won’t want to be in it.

For the first few weeks you have your new puppy, keep him in the crate overnight. This may sound cruel, but it teaches the pup that this is where he will sleep and learn to control his bladder. Our pup messed his crate by himself the first night and then decided he didn’t want to do that to his bedroom. Keep in mind that most puppies will find it difficult to adjust to the crate for the first couple of nights, especially if they were allowed to roam freely with their previous owners.

The step in potty training your puppy is to take him outside every hour or so. Taking them out every hour is very, very important. If you see your puppy sniffing around your house, take him out again. Better safe than sorry. When you take your puppy outside, take him to the same general area. Bringing them into the same general area will make lawn maintenance easier for you, and most dogs like to use the same area for their business.

If your pup has an accident in the house, stick his nose through it, not inside, and tell him “No, that’s a bad boy/girl,” and then take him straight outside. Pointing things out and telling them about it seems to work better than losing your temper and yelling at them. I also suggest that when you go potty outside, you praise them for a job well done. You may even want to give your pup treats from time to time as a reward.

In conclusion, this technique may not work for everyone, but it worked for us and it worked fast. My grandfather is the one who told me how he trained his puppy, so we tried it and it worked. I thought I’d share this information with you, because I was so clueless for so long. I hope this technique works for you and your family as it did for me and mine.
