POTTY TRAINING TIPS Potty training a puppy can be a challenging but rewarding experience. Here are some tips to help you get started:
Establish a routine: Puppies need to go potty frequently, so establishing a routine will help them learn when and where to go. Take your puppy outside at regular intervals, such as first thing in the morning, after meals, during play, and before bedtime. Use a designated potty area: Choose a spot outside where you want your puppy to go potty and consistently take them to that spot. Using a designated area will help your puppy associate that spot with going potty. Positive reinforcement: Praise your puppy when they go potty outside. This will help them learn that going potty outside is a good thing. Supervision: When your puppy is not in their crate or designated area, keep an eye on them to prevent accidents. If you can’t supervise them, confine them to a crate or designated area. Consistency: Potty training can take several weeks, so be patient and consistent. Stick to your routine and be consistent with praise and positive reinforcement. Clean up accidents promptly: If your puppy has an accident inside, clean it up promptly with an enzyme cleaner to remove any odor. This will help prevent your puppy from returning to the same spot to go potty.
Remember, potty training takes time and patience. Be consistent and reward your puppy for good behavior, and soon they will be fully potty trained.
