Gail Fisher's Dog Tracks House training isn't difficult if you are willing to be diligent

LARRY, our Chinook , is 17 weeks old. It's been nearly two weeks since he's had an “accident” in the . I used quotation marks around accident because during the house process, if a puppy eliminates indoors rather than outside, the fault is the human's, not the puppy's. I've been really diligent about house Larry, and it seems to have paid off.

The best way to house train a puppy is to use a crate.

Usage Tips: Housebreaking your new puppy can seem like a chore. Training pads make a tough job easier with a carefully blended attractant to encourage your puppy to eliminate on the pad and not your carpets. For the first few weeks, when you cannot watch your puppy, confine him to an with easy to clean floors such as tile, lament or wood. Place the pad on the floor as far away from his food/water and sleeping area as possible. He will quickly learn to pee on the pad, thanks to the special attractant. If your puppy is still having accidents, watch him closely and place him on the pad as soon as he starts to potty. Timing is crucial.
