House Training my Puppy

Monday, April 27th, 2009

I have two 12 week old Boxer/Husky puppies. So far we have been very lucky and they let us know when they need to go outside. My only issue is when I put the male in his crate he hikes his leg and will pee outside of his cage on the floor. Any suggestions on how to stop this? I don’t think this is a potty training issue but more of a “marking of territory” issue with him. Thanks - Kady
They actually are fixed already. We got them from a Humane Society and that was a requirement.

12 week old puppies do not mark territory.

He’s most likely doing it out of anger - a rebellious act from being put in the crate.

Get a “Cargo” style plastic crate for him - He won’t be able to lift his leg high enough to pee through the air vents at the top. If he tries to pee, it will run back into the crate and he won’t like it and will stop doing it.

How can I house train this puppy?

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

I have to go to school from 7 to 3. My parents work also. How can I house train my puppy? Its going to go to the bathroom in my house! Is there any way I can housebreak my puppy with our schedule?
Its a shiba inu
How long does it take for a puppy to be house trained? Will 3 monthes be fine?

Why did you get a puppy if you do not have time for it?
Don't use "Wee wee pads" as they are horribly counter productive. Then when you go to teach him to not go in the house (this summer perhaps?) he'll already think it's ok to use the bathroom in the house and you'll have a heck of a time.
With your schedule it's going to be hard as heck to house break this puppy. Your suppose to take a puppy out every half an hour to an hour, after eating, sleeping, playing, before bed, and right when you get up. When he goes to the bathroom outside make a big deal out of it and praise him. When he goes inside quietly clean up the mess, if you catch him in the act pick him up and run outside with him peeing.
Crate training could be helpful, as dogs try to avoid going where they sleep. Though someone is going to have to crate train him, then stop by the house (a friend perhaps?) to let him out, and then clean out the crate if his bladder has already let go.
Would it be possible for on of your parents to take 2 weeks off work? Or both of them take a week off? Puppies need constant supervision, and someone needs to be there to watch him.

Can anyone tell me a product that has enzyne cleaner in it for puppy urine accidents..Im housebreaking?

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

Im housebreaking my puppies and to clean up accidents..they say to use a cleaner with enzyne in it so it will take the smell of dog -do

I've used most of the cleaners you can get at petstores and ended up using a mixture of vinegar and water. This was recommended to my by the animal control center in my area. This really worked well but you also have to spend some time smelling vinegar.:)

What is your opinion on puppy pads for Housebreaking?

Monday, April 20th, 2009

I have a 5 mth old Pup who is Housebroken,worked within a week with the Crate, but we just got a 10 wk. old and I find it hard to tell when she has to go as the 2 pups are usually playing and if she seems to be running to the door he chases her so she runs in the opposite direction. I didn't know if we should try the puppy pads.

My trainer said use the pads or outside, not both. It's harder to train.

How to house train my puppy?

Monday, April 20th, 2009

This is my first time owning a puppy/dog and I wanna get this right!
*How did you house train your dog?
*How long did it take you?
*Any tips or techniques that you found useful?

**Thank you!**
Extra information on toilet training the puppy/dog would be FAB!

It took our dog a few months to learn it, and now she only potties in the house if we ignore her when she asks to go out OR if we leave her alone for too long (which usually never happens.)

Tips:

1) Put your pup on a feeding schedule. If you know when they eat or drink, you'll have an idea of when they'll need to go out. Feed at the same time each day!

2) Pup needs out: first thing in the morning, after eating/drinking, after playing, after naps, and right before bed.

3) Bring pup to the same spot each time! Remove anything that can be seen as a toy and try to find a spot where the pup won't see other dogs or people. Walk in that area, do not play. Potty should be straight out, potty, then back in. If you add playing they will think that they need to play and it will distract them.

4) Crate train your puppy. Dogs don't like to soil where they sleep, so if the crate is the right size they will try hard not to potty in it. Crate should be big enough to sit, lay down, turn around, and stand in.

The Early You Start Training Your Puppy The Better

Friday, April 17th, 2009

Housebreaking any new pet can be a difficult chore, but with repetition and practice the challenge will become easier and easier. If you want the puppy to listen only to you, then don’t allow him to play with other persons. Potty training your new puppy is a necessary evil. Doing the task over and over will help train your puppy quickly and efficiently.

Your pet is living in a human world full of confusing things and behavior he can’t understand. It is better to create good habits in the beginning; if you start early you can stop behavior problems such as biting or jumping on furniture.

Every dog owner knows that when he/she treats the dog with praise the dog will get greater satisfaction and will execute the command more readily than if the dog receives discipline in another fashion. So when training your dog needs positive reinforcement.

You can train a dog on your own, or you can join an obedience training class and get instruction from professionals. You will find many resources online and most of the online sites are free and you will find many tips and secrets to dog training.

IF you really want to train your puppy you will need to put some effort into it. And some type of dog is trained just for that.

Having a dog that can perform tricks and is very obedient and well trained is the pride and joy of every dog owner. While they are generally warm, loving and loyal, they can be trained to be more obedient. Even if you only have your dog inside for a short amount of time he or she must be trained not to leave a mess.

The correct position for the heel command is your dog at your left side with his shoulder and front leg aligned with your left leg. When you and your dog have a good relationship and training will come very easily. Once your dog understands the commands and you have trained him to a certain point, no matter where you are he/she will obey.

When training your puppy make sure you use positive experiences because negative experiences might affect your puppy, so make sure you make the training positive and fun. And this training requires frequent, consistent, and appropriately timed positive reinforcement. Unlike man, dogs do not know how to differentiate between positive and negative attention.

Your dog will its best when it receives praise, so using positive words and reinforcement you dog will do it best when training him/her. There are two elements at work here: positive reinforcement and intermittent reinforcement. All positive commands should be spoken sharply and distinctly during training.

When training your pet you can use the treat system, this system is training with a treat by rewarding your dog with his/her favorite snack for following your commands or doing something good. Try to go outside with him at least every thirty minutes or so, and make sure you praise or reward him for relieving himself outside.

Properly crate training your puppy is one of the best things that you could possibly do.
