 Stacy Alldredge is here to tell you how to get it done! "House training is a pretty straightforward process. I have yet to meet a healthy dog or puppy that couldn't be housetrained 100%. Here are the key points to getting you and your dog trained:

  1. Puppies must be supervised at all times - no sneaking off to have an accident.
  2. Keep a small  leash and collar on puppy at all times when not crated or gated to keep them close by.
  3. Controlled  water - depending on puppies age and size between 2-5 meals a day.
  4. Controlled water  with all meals and several other times a day when you can take puppy out for a relief, if going for a exercise walk offer puppy water on walk and make sure they pee before coming back inside. 
  5. Daily outdoor exercise is important to a housetrained and happy dog.
  6. If paper training use only one wee wee pad and make sure to take pup to pad often however puppy still needs to go outside for exercise and socialization.
  7. If the goal for house training is outside only paper training is an unnecessary step.
  8. NEVER correct a dog after the fact this will only confuse the dog, it’s mean and ineffective.
  9. Some puppies and dogs are easier to train but all can be trained be consistent and patient.
  10. Take away the water 2-3 hours before bedtime, then a short pee poop walk before bed.
  11. Feed puppies their last meal 3  hours before  bedtime, then a short pee poop walk before bed.
  12. 2-2.5 hours is the longest for a puppy to be alone this can expand to 4.5 hours at the most.
  13. Puppies need to pee/poop when they wake up, after meals, after play and any other excitement.
  14. Daily play dates and/or play groups are a must for proper puppy socialization.
  15. Feed premium food - read the label.
  16. Dog crated or baby gate when dog alone or can't be watched."
