To house-train a puppy, you can follow these steps:
-
Establish a routine: Take your puppy outside to the same spot regularly, especially after they eat, drink, wake up, or play.
-
Reward good behavior: Praise and reward your puppy with treats when they go potty outside.
-
Supervise indoors: Keep an eye on your puppy and take them outside if they show signs of needing to go.
-
Use a crate: Crate training can help prevent accidents inside the house as most dogs do not like to soil their sleeping area.
-
Clean up accidents properly: Use an enzymatic cleaner to remove the smell so your puppy is not encouraged to go in the same spot again.
Consistency and positive reinforcement are key to successfully house-training a puppy.
