Mastering potty training for puppies can be difficult if you don't follow time proven advice of those who have gone before you. Make sure you work as a team with those living in the household. Planning and patience will get the job done quickly. Don't try to potty train too early. Any time less than 1 month old is just wasting your time. Plan to have some routines and safe places for the puppy to go. Stick to dry food, one that makes the stool consistent. Good quality dry food will help him develop good eating habits. This positively affect how solid his stools are, his potty schedule and him ability to control when he has the urge. Lead him to the designated place where he can do his thing. Be consistent and show how he should position himself properly. Do this often at first. If he messes outside of the area, just clean the mess immediately and mask the odor. Try to have fun, make a game of it. Praise him if he does it right. Reinforce the idea regularly. Again a schedule is most important at this stage. Taking your puppy out to potty too much will wear you down, i.e. every halve hour is too much. Plan around dinner and other activities that you don't want to interrupt. Having a few other house members chip in also lowers the burden of getting the training done quickly and consistently. You and your puppy should get into a rhythm that both of you start feeling comfortable with. Consistence is the key. All dogs love to hear the praise of their owners. Even though you are training with a schedule don't go overboard. This is training and there will be accidents. If your taking measures for this, it will make it easier. Don't fret about the schedule, just do it as close to your time as you can and you'll get there soon. Just keep at it. The first thing you will teach your dog, is the potty is outside. Be consistent and use positive encouragement. Some dogs will refuse to go outside. Just be consistent. Seek other books and articles. Don't yell, be patient and your and your puppy will be potty trained in a short time. After this is mastered you can begin to work on other dog issues like chewing or barking.
