  1. If you have some room you might make a large area that has sod in it for the back porch or something as it is MUCH easier to train to outside from my expereince.

  2. Crate Training

    __________________

    Try locking her in a kennel or crate, or "doggie safe area" for a few minutes, while you go do something. Make sure to do the "Crate Process every time she goes in her crate.

    "Crate Process"

    1. Put Dog in kennel, crate or "doggie safe area"

    2. Give treats and a toy

    3. Leave

    4. When you come back, give her lots of praise, and treats. (Also, use the clicker if you are clicker training)

    Leave her out, of her kennel "doggie safe area"or crate for an hour, then put her in for 30 minutes, Repeating the "Crate Process.(steps 1-3)" Then again, when you come back do step 4.

    Repeat slowly extending the time, and make sure you leave time between kennel times, to spend with your puppy. Never expect your puppy to stay in his kennel longer than the age he is in months plus one. (example, if your puppy is 5 months old, only leave it in there for 6 hours. No dog/puppy should stay in it's kennel longer than 7-8 hours.

    This is what i mean by "doggie safe area".

    If you are going to be gone longer than a few hours, either have a dog sitter come to your house mid-day to walk him, or block off your bathroom, kitchen, hall, or other place with tile or wood floors for her to stay in while you are away. Leave food, water, toys, his kennel or crate, and puppy pads or newspapers(unless you want potty on the floor)

    I Really Hope this helped.

    House Training

    _____________

    First and foremost, do not make the dog smell his mess, strike him or lock him ouside. This will just confuse the pup, and it might be afraid of you.

    I have just got a puppy recently. The way I trained him was crate training. Here's a few tips on crate training and house training:

    1.Try to teach them that their crate is a good place. Reward them when you place them in the crate. This is teaching them, that a treat comes with good crate behavior. Always keep your dog in the crate, unless you can keep a good eye on him.

    2. Another option, if you do not want to place your dog in the kennel all of the time, hook his leash to your belt loop, this way he can not go off and use the restroom somewhere, and you don't know about it.

    3.Always take him outside after;

    + rough play

    +after he eats or drinks

    +after being let out of his crate

    + after he wakes up after a night

    + or if he shows signs of having to use the restroom,(below are those signs)

    *sniffing

    *staring at you

    *whining

    4.Don't ever hit your dog, or rub his nose in his mess. This will just teach the dog to be afraid of you.

    5.Don't feed him or give him to much water, before you plan to put him in his cage.

    6.Don't expect your dog to hold it's restroom, more than the age of the dog in months, plus one. But no dog should have to hold it's bladder more than a 7-8 hours.

    7.Be patient!! That is the key, to housetraining. Of course if you get too overwelmed, you can always buy a book, or ask a professional trainer!

    8.Always, when he goes to the bathroom ouside, give lots of praise and treats!!

    9. If you expect your puppy to go outside, and dont use puppy pads when he gets older, starting out with puppy pads, is not a good idea, because this trains them that it's ok to go inside, and then before they know it, they cant, it is to confusing for them.

    Good Luck!

    Please if you think I'm the best answer, please put me as best answer!! I really appreciate it!! Thanks!

  3. i would suggest puppy pads.

    they look like this:http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.js...

    the puppy may try to chew or take the pad with him.

    so all you have to do is tape down the pad.I would prefer taping it down to a hard surface not carpet.And then when the puppy is done&the pad is soiled a bit,just roll it up and throw it away.

    good luck with your puppy=)

  4. You could try litter box training him

  5. You can go the pet store and buy puppy training pads, its basically a diaper thats flat to lay on the ground.  every time you see them pee or p**p put them on it and have them  stand there for a few mins, if you can catch them before and have them go on the pads and then reward with a treat or just some dog food they will learn quickly

  6. The key to rock-solid housetraining is to start the day your pup comes home and stick with the program. Using a crate is the easiest method.

    Some pups need more time than others to get used to their new den. But if it just isn't working, or if you can't stand the idea of putting your dog in a crate, there are alternatives.

    You can keep your puppy in a gated area of your house--kitchens work well--that's small enough she won't want to mess up her living space.

    You can also keep your puppy with you as you move around the house, on a leash attached to your belt. But you'll need to keep a close eye on your puppy to make sure she doesn't eliminate inside or chew on anything she's not supposed to.
