perfect paws puppuy training
Puppies learn very quickly with proper instruction. The first few days in a new home are extremely important for your puppy and the precedents you set now will last a lifetime.
Training Puppy the First Week
When your puppy comes home, it is important
to be prepared for many training opportunities ...
Puppy training basics during the first week the puppy is home is critical. It is obvious that you need certain physical items such as a dog bed or crate, food and water bowls, puppy chow, collar, leash, toys, etc. Equally as important, all family members must decide and agree on routine, responsibility and rules.
The first few days are extremely important. Enthusiasm and emotions are up. Everyone wants to feed the puppy, play with the puppy and hold the puppy. Pre-established rules are easily broken. Everyone agreed that puppy will sleep in her crate but as soon as she's home, someone melts and insists that puppy will sleep in bed. Everyone previously agreed not to let puppy jump up on them, but in the excitement, no one even notices that puppy is jumping up. No one sleeps the first night. Puppy wins and gets to sleep in bed. The next morning we find puppy has eliminated all over the bed. So the following night puppy is banned to her crate and screams all night. No one sleeps tonight either.
Grouchiness sets in; enthusiasm is down. No one wants to get up at the pre-agreed upon early morning feeding time. How are we going to housetrain puppy? How are we going to sleep with her constant whining?
Your new puppy has just been taken away from her mom and littermates. She is vulnerable and impressionable. What she needs now is security and routine. Set up a small room to be her very own special haven for the next couple of months. Paper the entire floor and put her food/water bowls and bed in one corner. Scatter her toys everywhere.
Play with her quietly and gently. Don't flood her with attention and activity. If she looks like she wants to sleep, leave her alone. Puppies need lots of sleep.
Decide who is responsible for feeding and cleaning up after her. Don't deviate from the schedule. Routine is especially important for your puppy. Don't spend all your time with her. If she is going to be alone during the day or night, she needs to start getting used to it now. If she wakes up from a nap and whines, resist the urge to run in and comfort her.
What To Expect House Training a Puppy
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless you can monitor your puppy 24 hours a day, don't expect the house training process to be completed until your puppy is at least 6 months old. It's normal for a young puppy to be a little 'input-output' machine. Since puppies are growing and developing rapidly at this stage, they eat more food, burn up more energy and seem to need to eliminate constantly! They also have not yet developed bowel and bladder control, so they can't 'hold it' as long as adult dogs.
House Training When You Are NOT Home
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Confine your puppy to a small, 'puppy-proofed' room and paper the entire floor. Put his bed, toys and food/water bowls there. At first there will be no rhyme or reason to where your pup eliminates. He will go every where and any where. He will also probably play with the papers, chew on them, and drag them around his little den.
Most puppies do this and you just have to live with it. Don't get upset; just accept it as life with a young puppy. The important thing is that when you get home, clean up the mess and lay down fresh papers.
What to do when Puppy is screaming and whining in the crate.
First make sure your puppy does not have to urinate or defecate and that she is not thirsty or excessively hungry. If in doubt, take him to his designated toilet area before you begin.
Make yourself comfortable because in the beginning this can be a time consuming process, but each repetition brings results faster and faster until the exercise no longer needs to be done. If done properly, it should take no longer than a week for your puppy to feel secure in his crate and no longer howl and whine.
This process will not work if you do not provide your puppy with regularly scheduled exercise and play. If your puppy has excessive, pent up energy because you haven't provided an outlet for that energy, then this exercise will be futile.
Having previously performed the Chill exercise with your puppy will make this training process infinitely easier. See the video on how to teach your puppy to Chill.
The basic idea is to comfort and sooth your puppy into falling asleep and then once asleep, placing her back into her crate. Sometimes the puppy will stir a bit when you move her from your lap to the crate, but simply stroke and calm her inside the crate before shutting the door. Sometimes, just reaching through the crate with your fingers and gently stroking the puppy will be enough. If the whining continues immediately, then repeat the process and wait until the puppy is more soundly asleep before placing her back into the crate.
Repeat this process until you succeed or each subsequent training session will take longer and longer. I had to do this several times the first night and then once a night for a few nights. After that I only needed to do it for a few minutes before bedtime and occasionally if the puppy woke up in the middle of the night. Each night she felt more secure, she slept longer and longer until she would sleep the entire night through.
However I found that I had to repeat the training when I crated her during the day for naptime. But the process is exactly the same.
Housebreak a Puppy In 5 Days
It happened!
I wasn't watching her and she peed all over my Berber carpet… And with a small puppy you're not going to see it until it's already happened… To say the least- I was upset.
I smiled on the outside as I picked her up and took her outside… but inside I was fuming.
I knew I needed help but wasn't sure where to look. Wasn’t this puppy housebreaking supposed to come natural?
I guess not.
As a last ditch effort, I went looking for the best information I could find. I needed more than just 'free tips'. Who could help me stop this before it got out of hand?
I’d read a shocking statistic that the #1 reason a puppy ends up in a shelter was because of housebreaking problems. I didn’t want Sally to become a part of that frightening statistic.
But I am ashamed to say that I was quite frustrated and was about to take her to the pound after only two or three weeks of having her.
At the time, she wasn't the bundle of joy I'd fantasized about.
I wasn't sure whether I was supposed to housebreak her by crate, paper train her, use a pad, or go outside. I was clueless… which caused Sally to be clueless. So I went online searching 'housebreaking a puppy.'
The first ad I saw was titled 'Housebreaking a Puppy in 5 Days'…
That had ME written all over it. So I clicked…
The first thing that hit me was the similarities between the couple's story and mine. I don't know about you but I like having a face behind a website. The second thing I noticed quickly- ALL the success stories.
Puppy lovers just like me, who almost had given up, thanking Trey for helping them transform their puppy… some literally overnight.
After getting their system, I was literally blown away. This was not just a course on how to housebreak puppies as the title would have us believe. It is the most complete puppy training tutorial I've ever seen. You're shown how to use the puppy's natural behavior… Finally, I know the importance of beating the bad habits *before* they sink in.
Doing it right the first time.
Implementing these tactics had my puppy housetrained in 5 days!
Some courses tell you to - figuratively speaking - go boil a pot of water. This course assumes nothing. Trey tells you what a pot is, where the kitchen is, what water is, how to put the water in the pot, then put it on the stove, how to turn on the stove and when to turn it off. That's the kind of attention to detail we're talking about here.
The focus of the course is training your puppy, specifically BEFORE bad habits are molded… and then he gives you step-by-step instructions to housebreaking puppies… and finally he gives some controversial information that goes against the grain of most of today's trainers…
There's a chapter for everything. And it's very well done.
When you complete this system, you'll be able to enjoy your dog again… It worked for me and I love my Sally again. Trust me- I couldn't say that two weeks ago.
The only downside of this system are the production values. Compared to the some of the slick and professionally polished tutorials that are out there, the How To Housebreak My Puppy course is real meat 'n potatoes kind of stuff.
Trey is not a poet… but an expert in puppy training. He often lets that show through. But I didn't want a War And Peace Novel- I wanted help - fast.
But you know what? He's human, and that's exactly the sense you get when you're reading this course. It's just like being in a live classroom where stuff happens and the teacher needs to adapt. Although it's a little quirky at first, you easily get used to it and it's almost like having Trey sitting beside you, guiding you through every step of the process.
If you're prepared to put in a little time to learn, this system will blow you away. You can pay more expensive prices but don't judge the content by the cover… I honestly think he'll wise up soon and increase his prices to match his competitors… but until he does- get it.
I'm glad someone who knew what they were talking about helped us new 'parents'… The thought of giving Sally back was something I didn't want to face.
To quote Benjamin Franklin, "If a man empties his purse into his head, no one can take it away from him. An investment of knowledge always pays the best interest."
This course - my friend - is a heck of an investment and money well spent. Empty this information into your mind and you're never likely to go to regret the day you bought your dog.

So if you want to learn how to housebreak your puppy- and in the process have your neighbors jealous at his obedience… head on over and get more information about the course right now. How To Housebreak My Puppy
I just wish my neighbor's kids were this well-behaved;-)
Dear Fellow Dog Lover,
Nothing beats the companionship of a puppy of your own. The day you bring him home- You're so excited. But then the fun starts, doesn't it?
We won't tell anybody... but I bet there are times you probably regret getting him. Right?
I remember the day I brought Max home. I was in love with him from the time he stepped his paw into our home.
But... soon I was stepping my foot into his messes...
2 days later I was so mad and frustrated that I cursed the day I spent $375 to bring him home.
What was I thinking? I didn't realize how much time it would take to train him to do even the smallest tasks. For one- NOT using my house as his public bathroom!
Listen: If you want to potty train your puppy in the least amount of time, this report could be the most important one you’ve ever read.
Here's why...
If there was a mistake to make with my first 3 dogs, I made it.
Making critical training mistakes in the beginning with your loving puppy causes a lot of embarrassment in the future... Wait too long and the habits are a lot tougher to stop.
You'll deal with stained rugs... biting at your ankles and generally just a disobedient and an unhappy dog... and for only one reason.
You didn't know how to train him right from the beginning.
Can you tell I've been there?
Here's what happened...
One day my wife gave the sign: "It's either him or me."
NOW I was desperate.
I couldn't blame her. Cleaning the carpet was getting expensive...
Before Max, one of our dogs thought the kitchen chair was her chew toy. One of the legs had gotten dangerous to sit in because it had been chewed so much. Did I mention my wife's grandmother had passed down the table to us? I usually leave that part out.
I'd assumed this housebreaking thing was supposed to come natural. It didn't- by a long shot.
So I bought everything I could find on the internet. I devoured information until I went into 'information over-load'. Do you know how much conflicting opinions there are out there?
Too much.
Finally- It all came together though. And fast. The good news is that once I knew what I was doing... You'd have thought I was the 'Dog whisperer'.
With the right puppy training in the first few weeks... I solved the potty issues and the other behavior problems. And you can too.
All this happened around 6 years ago now... Fast forward to today.
"...these have to be the best kept secrets the "Pro" puppy trainers never wanted you to know. Fast and easy methods for less than the cost of a crate..."
I've helped literally hundreds of other frustrated owners... and you'll get to meet a few of these in a second.
I've dedicated myself to help other puppy owners not have to go through the same hair-pulling experiences.

Puppy Training 101
Housebreaking
Housebreaking is the first and most important step in training a new puppy that will be kept inside your home for any extended period of time. A set schedule works best for puppies, so establish a routine of feeding and watering. Puppies have small bladders and cannot hold their urine as long as adult dogs can. Very young puppies cannot be expected to wait longer than four hours between trips outside. It helps to take your puppy to the same spot to relieve himself each time he goes outside to solidify the daily routine. All dogs do best when praised, so reward your puppy with lots of praise after he relieves himself outside.
A great approaching to potty training is to confine your puppy to a crate when he is home alone. Since dogs are den animals, they are less inclined to soil their crate, or den, than a large house. The crate should not be too large or else the puppy might use one side to relieve himself and the other side to sleep.
uppy Behavior
If you’re getting a new puppy or have already brought the adorable little guy or gal home then chances are you’re wondering what you’ve gotten yourself into. You may be wondering what to expect and what puppy behavior problems might arise. More importantly, you may be planning ahead and learning how to prevent puppy behavior problems - great, we’re here to help. Potential Puppy Behavior Problems Biting and nipping - Puppies have puppy teeth, also often called milk teeth. These teeth are sharp and can do a lot of damage to hands. As puppies grow and mature, these teeth will fall out and be replaced by adult teeth. It’s similar to the teething process that babies go through. So it’s natural for puppies to bite and nip.
However, accepting this behavior is a bad idea. If you allow your puppy to bite and chew on your hand, they’ll learn that this is okay. To prevent puppy biting and nipping, make it a no no from day one. When your puppy puts their mouth on your hands or someone else’s hands, give them a firm no and replace your hand with an appropriate item to chew on. This will quickly teach your puppy what is and isn’t appropriate to chew on. Read more on what I like to call "Urge Control" to stop puppy nipping.
