Puppy Training Tips

Housetraining requires persistence and the readiness to stick to an agenda. Nearly all puppies react well to an agenda because it makes them repeat the same procedures every day and it is easier for you to teach them the desired behaviour. Here are some useful puppy training tips.
First it is necessary for you determine how long your puppy can hold his urine. Keep a record for a few days until you notice a pattern between eating and eliminating. You will see that your puppy will by and large have to go after eating, drinking, playing or sleeping. The majority need to be taken out at least three to five times a day unless they have drunk too much water. What you should do when you take him out is to wait until he goes potty before bringing him back. Be prepared to stay outside until he does. This may take a while. If you bring him back in before he is ready, he’s very likely to go potty inside before you can take him outside again.
It’s essential to bestow praise on him every time he behaves the right way. This is a good reinforcement because the puppy gets attention and a treat. Praising him later will be ineffectual. To prevent him from finding spots, shut doors to rooms with carpets or rugs on the floors, because they like some places more than others to eliminate on.
If an accident happens, apply a pet odor neutralizer to get rid of the smell. Puppies may sniff and look for the spot they went the previous time. Ammonia based cleaners are not recommended because they break down into urea – one of the urine’s ingredients.
If you apply these basic puppy training tips, your puppy will learn good habits in reasonably short time.
