Puppy Potty Training Tips

 

Puppy Potty Training Tips

By assigning q spot in your yard as the dog's toilet you cannot only help him to become house broken quicker but also avoid unnecessary messes. The fastest Puppy Potty Training tip we have is to train the puppy to use one spot and he will not consider the entire garden his bathroom. This is especially important if you have children who also use the yard or like to have barbecues. If you want to create a potty spot for your dog make sure that you use material, which drains well, and you can disinfect. Some pointers that you will find helpful are:

 

  • Build a square or rectangle box out of wood. Larger dogs need an area about eight foot by eight foot but smaller dogs can use a four foot by four foot area.
  • Spread sand over the bottom of the enclosure.
  • Over the sand put crushed rock. You can use tiny sized rock or if you prefer a larger size of one inch is also commonly used.

A potty spot like the one mentioned above will make clean up easier and you can use a bleach solution to disinfect and get rid of odors. Even in a small yard using a solution ratio of 30:70 bleach and water should take care of unpleasant smells coming out of your potty spot. A rake will also come in handy for cleaning and smoothing over the rocks.
