Top 3 Puppy Potty Training Tips

As a new Mom to a Chocolate American Cocker Spaniel, his name is Sir Jax,  I know and understand that potty training a puppy can be a very challenging endeavor. Here are a few tips and tricks that I have learned on my journey, and a few fun potty training items to help along the way too!


First, and probably most important, get your puppy on a feeding schedule. Dogs love schedules! Make sure to feed your fur babies at the same time every day. Wait about 5 or 10 minutes after they eat or drink water and get them outside quickly!

Second, after nap time or waking up in the morning. Dogs are like humans in this respect. When we first wake up we usually have to go to the restroom, so do our dogs!! So, anytime your pup closes their eyes, even for 5 minutes, get them outside to take care of their business!

Finally, just watch your pup, when you see them sniffing around, that is a sure sign to get them outside. My Boy, Sir Jax, gets super grumpy when he has to go. His biting will be harder and his stubbornness will get worse. This means either he needs a nap, or he needs to go outside.

Lastly everybody, remember when your babies do go to the bathroom outside or on pad, make sure to praise them to the moon and back! Dogs LOVE to make their owners happy and proud. I honestly believe this is the best way to reward your Dogs. With love, pride and praise! I know my Sir Jax has actually gone through the doggie door twice now by himself to go potty. He is coming along! Be patient, Be loving, Be kind and your Puppy's will adore you forever!

Before you begin to train a pup we here at BestDealsforPets.com think it's important to understand how your dog thinks, and why he does what he does! Here are some basic things we have learned. Three consequences of behavior Every time your dog does anything at all the outcome can be placed in one of three categories Things get better for him Things get worse for him Nothing changes Dogs repeat actions that are rewarded If the immediate consequence was a pleasant one,  that is sufficient to ‘reinforce’ the dog’s behavior so that it will be more likely to occur again in the future. Sambina the beagle has learned to bark for her dinner in just the same way.  She barks while dinner is being prepared, and immediately after barking, her dinner is placed on the floor for her. Rewards can build bad habits as well as good ones You can see how bad habits can easily be formed with this kind of reinforcement, even though it is not in any way deliberat

One of the hardest things about having a furry best friend is when you have to leave them alone. Especially in a one dog family. Here are a few tips I have learned to help your pup be happier when you have to leave them for a bit. # 1  Wear your buddy out.  Even a brisk walk around the block helps. A tired Dog will just nap and patiently wait for your return. A Dog that is not properly exercised will be anxious, nervous, will bark all day, and be very unmanageable. It is understandable if you can't walk your Dog every day, most of us have full time jobs, and others have health issues preventing them from walking their Furry Friends. If you are having behavior problems with your dog and are unable to properly wear them out, we have some great Dog Treadmills at BestDealsforPets.com #2  Act natural! Play it cool! Do not let your Dog know you are getting ready to leave!  Hide all departure cues from your dog so that he or she can’t begin to associate them with you
