Puppy Housebreaking - Five Most Important Steps to Powerful Puppy Housebreaking

Have you ever wondered how to create powerful puppy housebreaking plan? Here are five simple steps that will skyrocket your dog housebreaking training, guaranteed.

1. Utilize dog's inborn instincts

Puppies have inborn instincts to seek out their own den and to take care of it. We can use this very handy in our training efforts by "assisting" puppy to "find" his new den which of course will be one of our choosing. If used properly this will prove to be the backbone of our success.

2. Create puppy housebreaking schedule

As in so many other fields schedule plays very important role in the puppy housebreaking as well. We should have schedule in place not only for feeding our puppy but also to take him out. This will help us greatly to predict our puppy needs. In addition to this we should create proper puppy diet.

3. Use rewards instead of punishment

Over the time we have learned that rewards work much better than the punishment. Rewards motivate our puppy greatly to offer desired behavior over and over again. Yelling and punishing out puppy would have counterproductive effect since our puppy will not know why is he being punished.

4. Consistence

Bring out puppy out at the same time and to the same place plays extremely important role in our overall puppy housebreaking efforts. Repetition is the secrets to how our puppy learns.

5. Patience

As with everything else the patience is the key to success. There will be time when our puppy will have an accident and it is very important to follow positive training approach and avoid punishing out puppy for that.
