This video explains how to watch your puppy to know when to take it outside while you are housebreaking your dog. The expert describes when to take out dogs while they are being house trained, and what behaviors puppies exhibit when they need to go.
Potty training IS a big issue. Two things to always remember...When your pup first wakes up...take it outside. As soone as your pup eats or drinks, take it outside. You always want to remember to to praise your puppy once outside doing his business...tell your pup "go pee" as soon as he/she is outside so it learns association! THEN when the event happens... "good puppy"!!! "GOOD PEE!!!!"...Never scold your puppy for "inside jobs"!!! Instead say...ooppps...outside!!! Pee outside...or something to that effect... You can also give your dog a couple of pieces of his kibble as a reward for completing the task outside. Once the pup learns there may also be a reward included this will also excel the learning process. You'll find that your pup will learn very quickly. Good Luck with training!
