Training puppy to use puppy pads?

You should only use puppy pads for the few month or 2.

As they grow older, they pee more, and eventually, it will go off the pad and make a mess. it's gross.

Put the pad on kitchen tiles probably [so if he has an accident, it won't stain like the hard wood floor would] Keep it away from carpets, rugs etc.

Since he's a puppy, his bladder is not very controlled.

But, every hour or so pick him up put him on the pad.

If he leaves, put him back.

Pick a word like PeePee and say it loudly so he knows your serious.

After a while, he'll know what it means & it'll be easier.

ALWAYS give him a treat for peeing. [he'll want to do it more]

HOPE THIS HELPS AND GOOD LUCK <3

You shouldn't be using these pads in the first place. Why in the world would you teach your puppy to do his business inside!? The whole training process is completely flawed. You are suppose to slowly move the pads closer to the door and then finally outside but the dog has not learned how to tell you he needs to go out so will again do his business inside. So many of the people in my training class have used these, really only because they are lazy and do not want to take their puppy out every few hours as needed. These "training" pads usually lead to you paying someone else to train your adult dog to go outside.

Train your puppy properly NOW. Do not let him out of your sight, this is the first step. He needs to be within your sight so you can correct him when he does something unwanted, like chewing on things other than his toys or going to the bathroom. There will be no room for error for him or you. Do not scold him hours or even five minutes after he has done something wrong, this will simply confuse him. Use baby gates to keep him in the same room with you. Correct him every time he tries to do his business inside and immediately take him out.

You could consider crate training as well. The crate needs to be large enough for him to stand comfortably but only big enough for him to turn around, No bigger. The puppy is only to be left in the crate when you are not home and at night while you are sleeping. He still needs to brought out to go to the bathroom every few hours, even if you need to come home from work on your lunch break or wake up at 2:30 in the morning. Crate training allows you to keep the supervision while you are not there. If the crate is the proper size and the puppy has been brought outside when needed he will not chew anything or have any accidents inside the crate.

Good luck and throw those pads out.

I actually have a dachshund and he or she is now a twelve months. i think of a few dogs breeds are greater services to being greater effective at residing house breaking, and a few are thoroughly obdurate (like my little female). I did repetition along with her. It took her approximately 3 months to ultimately get the seen "ok I would desire to pass to the bathing room on the doggy pad", and now she in no way has an twist of destiny. in spite of the indisputable fact that some human beings say you mustn't enable your dogs to apply a doggy pad, and which you will desire to take them out on the grass. in any case, What I did with my doggy is approximately each 25-30 min (the 1st day) i'd placed her on the pad, with constrained area for her to pass around it and wait a pair minutes and enable her pass. If she had an twist of destiny on the carpet, i'd placed her at present on the doggy pad. easily, it sucks residing house breaking a doggy. yet i desire I helped a touch. Congrats on your new doggy however! good success! EDIT- the reason I recomend doggy pads is using the fact, I stay in an condominium the place i can not get exterior and enable her pass continuously, 2d whilst i pass to artwork and that i am going away her contained in the kitchen, she needs to pass to the bathing room someplace. easily, when you consider that she has been residing house broken I even have yet to have her have any injuries or the different undesirable conduct come from her utilising the doggy pad.

I'd had the same problem with our puppies. They were pad trained and it took forever to train them. You just train them for a couple of months, then when you think it's time to go outside, take them out. Tell them to go, if they don't keep taking them outside and they will get used to it.

I'd caution against using them altogether. Reason being when your puppy is a puppy and small it's no big deal but when it grows up going to the bathroom in the house isn't going to be nearly as convenient as it is now.
