help with potty training tips???please!?

Potty training is, to most owners, the first and most important kind of training a puppy needs. When it comes to potty training, all pups are not created equal. Some breeds are known for being easy to potty train while others are more difficult—this should be one of the things you look into as you explore different breeds.

Individual puppies also vary. Be patient. A puppy is a baby, and babies need time to master acceptable potty procedures. Young puppies don't have complete control of their bladders or bowels, and sometimes by the time they realize they have to go, they simply can't hold it any longer. It's your job to keep your puppy off your carpets until he's reliably trained, to teach him where he should go, and to be patient when he has an accident. At least your puppy doesn't wear diapers!

Here are some guidelines to help you potty train your puppy. These procedures will work whether you're training your puppy to go outdoors or to go in a litter box indoors (which many toy dogs are trained to do). I don't advocate paper training, especially with a dog that you will eventually want to potty outdoors. If you paper train him to go indoors, you'll just have to retrain him later to go outdoors. Why not start by training for what you really want?

•If you buy a puppy, buy from a responsible breeder who has already started potty training.

•Crate or confine your puppy when you can't watch him—always. Train other family members to do the same.

•If you feed your puppy a commercial dog food, feed dry food. It will keep his stools more solid.

•Confine your puppy to rooms with tile or other washable flooring so mistakes don't ruin carpets.

•Keep your puppy on a schedule. Feed him at the same time every day, and try to get up and go to bed close to the same time every day while he's being potty trained.

•Puppies need lots of water, especially if they eat dry dog food. However, while you're potty training, feed your pup at least four hours before bedtime, and remove his water two hours before bedtime.

•Take your puppy to potty after every meal as well as the first thing in the morning, the last thing at night, every time he wakes up from a nap, after an active play session, and in the wee hours of the morning if you hear him moving around. Take him on a leash to the place you want him to use—that will teach him to use that spot, and also teach him that he can go even on leash with you standing right there. That can be important if you're away from home.

•When you take your puppy to potty, don't play with him until after he does his business. If he doesn't go within 10 minutes, put him in his crate for 10 to 15 minutes, then take him to potty again. When he potties, praise him and reward him with a treat or short playtime. Wait a few minutes before you take him in—sometimes puppies don't finish on the first try, so give him time to be sure he won't have to go again in three minutes.

•Keep your puppy's potty place clean—pick up feces every day. You don't like to step in it, and neither does he.

•If you don't have the time or patience to potty train a puppy, then adopt or buy an older puppy or adult dog that is already potty trained.

Most puppies will signal that they're about to potty. When your pup is loose in the house, keep a close eye on him. If he starts to turn in circles, sniff the floor, or arch his back while walking, pick him up and take him out. Once a baby starts to go, he can't stop if he's on his own feet. Help him get to the right place; then praise and reward him with play or a treat when he finishes.

Puppies do have accidents. It's very important to remove all trace of odor from any place your pup potties. Regular cleansers won't do it—you may not smell urine or feces after washing the area with soap and water, but your pup has a much more sensitive nose than you have. If he smells waste odors, he'll think he's found the toilet. Pet supply stores sell several types of special cleansers designed to eliminate odors. An inexpensive alternative for urine odors (but not feces) is a 50-50 mixture of white vinegar and water. I keep a spray bottle full when I expect puppy messes to clean up.

If you see your puppy start to go in the house, say “No” or “Anh!” pick him up, and take him out. When he's finished, put him somewhere safe and clean up the mess. Don't yell at your puppy or punish him for accidents. Don't rub his nose in it. If you don't see him start to go but find an accident later (a minute later is later), just clean it up and scold yourself for giving him the opportunity to make a mistake. Puppies don't go in the house to be mean or to “get you.” They do it because they haven't learned where they should go. Remember, he's a puppy, not a child. You can talk until you're blue in the face and he still won't understand why you're upset about the peepee on the rug.

my two ways that got my pup potty traine

1. Wait and see

Introduce the potty softly-softly, by placing it in the bedroom or toilet for instance. Get them to sit on it when you are using the loo yourself, after a meal or drink or before their bath, and if they do manage to do something when they are on it lavish them with praise and attention. This method is a great for children who enjoy a sense of accomplishment, but can be a fairly long process.

2. Pull ups or training pants

Training pants can be good for reducing mess, but can also be expensive if they are used long term. Combine a switch to training pants with a routine of taking your child to the toilet and asking them if they need to go, so that they get used to the sensations that signal the need to pee.

3. Reward focussed

You can use this with any other method, and all it involves is the introduction of a reward chart or sticker ‘prize’ when your child does well. If you have a child who is very goal oriented, you might find that the promise of a trip to the toy shop or a magazine at the end of the week is enough motivation to help them focus on potty training.

4. Perfect pants

Make a big fuss of your child that they are now ‘nearly a big boy / girl’ and take them to the shop to pick out some big kid pants. Pop them on and let the accidents happen as they may. This is by far the messiest solution, but is also the one which will help them notice most easily when they are wet. If you’ve got lots of patience (and a big enough washing machine!) this could be a great way to do things.

5. Express training

If you have the time available, some mums find that setting aside a day or two to intensely potty train their child lets them blast through the issues and get to the goal more quickly. Stay home for a day or two and keep your child stripped below the waist. Ask them regularly to sit on the potty, and praise and reward when something happens. Make sure they are definitely ready before trying this, as a whole day of failure can be seriously detrimental to their self-esteem.

Remember, an eight-week old puppy is a baby. He doesn't have a clue what you want, and he can't hold his urine for more than two hours at a time.

Really think about your housebreaking decision; a Maltese is small enough that he doesn't ever have to go outside, and if he's paper trained he can be comfortable anywhere. Of course, if you don't travel much, its not important.

This routine will work, whether you're teaching him to use the pads, a pad of newspapers, or the grass outside. Suit yourself.

Go to the pet store and buy a soft flat buckle puppy collar that will fit the dog and a matching six-foot leash, a plastic airline-style crate just big enough for the dog to lie down in, and a large bottle of Nature's Miracle cleaner.

Go home. Put the collar on the dog.

Put the dog into the crate and close the door.

Clean every place where the dog has urinated with the Nature's Miracle. It takes away residual smell; dogs, especially males, like to pee on the scent of old pee.

New Routine:

The dog will be crated any time you can't watch him.

When you are home, he can come out of the crate, but then you will clip the leash onto his collar and fasten the other end to your belt, so he will always be near you and you will be able to see when he starts sniffing around for a place to squat.

Pup must be taken out frequently; you'd rather take him out, on his leash, and do nothing, then find him peeing on your shoe. He must go out every time you open the crate, play with him, feed hm or wake him from a nap.

In order to actually housebreak him, start carrying his favorite treats in your pocket or by the door you take him out. When he does his business outside, say, "Hurry up, good boy"! When he's finished, tell him, "Good hurry up!! Good boy!!" and give him treats. Make a huge fuss over what he just did. Do it every time for at least a full 60 seconds. He'll think you're insane, but he'll take the prize. Trainers call it "jackpotting" --you're impressing on him how GREAT it is when he goes outside.

When you catch him making his mistake in the house, IGNORE him. Don't look at him, don't let him interact with you, turn your back if he comes near you. Don't talk to him. Take the leash off your belt and put him in the crate. Then just get the Nature's Miracle and clean it up.

Once the mess is cleaned up, the incident is over. Act as if nothing happened. Treat him as you would if nothing had happened. Put the leash back on your belt, resume your activities.

Keep on taking him out often, on a leash, so you notice when he does his business, so you don't miss a chance to treat and praise him. While you're at the door, you say, "Want to go hurry up? Do you have to hurry up?" I prefer the keyword "hurry up" to "go potty" --it's so much more dignified. :)

Eventually, he'll connect the keyword "hurry up" with relieving himself, and he may even go to the door to cue you. The first time he does that, jackpot him while still in the house, and then walk him outside and jackpot him again when he goes.

By showing you how potty training can be

easy... If you follow a proven plan.

Most parents potty train using trial and

error and *prolong* potty training by months

instead of just days if they had used a

proven plan.

The longer you wait to potty train your child...

The harder it will be for you... Even if they

are currently not showing any signs of being

ready.

Even if you had tried potty training in the

past and failed...

...Listen, it's NOT your fault.

I don't know for sure?

But this is likely the most important lesson

about potty training I could EVER share with you.

I say that because I've known parents who've

potty trained their children in just 3 days...

only using 3 simple tips Carol Cline suggested

to them… and now never have to pay for or change

diapers ever again.

If only every parents used Carol Clines method...

parents would have their child potty trained in

days... instead of weeks or even months...

Would you mind grabbing a piece of paper

and taking notes?

I truly believe this is THAT important to

your child's future....

PS Whether your wanting to start potty training

now or want start later down the road…this is

information every parents needs to know...

...Information from friends and family is NOT

enough. In fact, if they give you one piece of

bad advice, it will likely BACKFIRE and set you

back months.

At 8 weeks a puppy has no bladder control. Crate when you can't watch the puppy and take him out every 2 or 3 hours to pee. Try to get him to go longer overnight. While you can, leash him to you and hope he signals before he pees. Limit him to one room with no carpets while he house trains. Keep in mind he needs to be trained on the whole house a bit at a time.

I would say scrap the potty pads and newspaper and try crate training. Most puppies won't pee where they sleep. The space has to be small enough so there's only room for him to stand and lay down comfortably.I've always crate trained and now my 1yr old shih tzu loves his cage and goes to it for naps, and by the way hes totally housebroken. You should be able to look online for crate training tips or your local library. Good luck!

Crate train him. Take him outside to do his business, if he does, praise him. If he doesn't put him in a crate (kennel). Let him out again in half an hour or so and immediately take him outside. If he goes, praise him. If not, right back to the kennel. Repeat the steps over and over til the dog catches on. Believe it or not, it won't take that long as the dog does not want to pee in his "bedroom"
