WHAT IS HOUSE TRAINING
House training is a term to describe the process of potty training a domesticated animal that lives in your house to eliminate outdoors, or in a designated indoor area, rather than inside your house.
This is also sometimes referred to as "housebreaking". Which the term comes from the desire to break the habit of eliminating in the house.
WHY SHOULD I HOUSE TRAIN
House training is a *very* important process that every new puppy, or adult dog coming into your house must go through. This is the very first step, and will be the start of forming your bond and a happy relationship with your puppy!
Do you want your puppy to continue to use the house as his toilet?
Of course not! And that's why you need to be informed of the best information available so you can fully house train your puppy.
Remember, there is no such thing as "almost house trained". Either he is, or he isn't. It's the same as saying that your neighbor's wife is almost pregnant. when a dog is house trained, he NEVER uses the house as his potty area.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
When it comes to house training your puppy, the rate of how fast it will be is determined by the amount of consistent training that you give, as well as the method that you use.
Just taking your dog out in the back yard a few times a day is not the way to house train a dog. They have no way of knowing what they are being taken out for!
If you use information you find on a random web site or in a book from the store, you absolutely must make sure it's a proven and tested method. Otherwise your efforts may be completely wasted -- and you may even make the situation *much* worse.

WHEN SHOULD I START
It is very important to start the process as soon as possible. And preferably within the hour you pick up your new friend.
Starting around 7 to 8 weeks of age is preferred, but of course you can start at any age. It's much better late than never!
If your puppy is younger than 7 weeks, you can not expect it to be 100% puppy trained as fast as an older pup. This is simply because your puppy does not have complete control of his bladder and elimination organs yet.
Which is the good news if you're training an older pup - because they have more control and can "hold more", they'll need to be taken out fewer times.
WHAT IF I HAVE AN ADULT DOG
If your house training a older dog, it has learned habits that need to be retrained. Of course it would be unreasonable to expect months or years of consistent habits to be gone overnight.
But training IS possible, and still quite simple.
Next week you'll learn some basics of house training!
All the best,
