What will you require to guide your dog?

(1) The first thing you will require is a shipping crate, it must be of adequate size so that your pug doesn’t undergo any type of difficulty to stand up and turn around.

(2) To select an appropriate “Potty area” for your dog is important.

(3) To pick a suitable “Potty Word”.

(4) Your puppy's favorite snacks. I find small pieces of hot dog (the sausage) work great and your dog will enjoy them!.

(5) The next significant thing you will need is a non ammonia cleaner. Select those which are particularly for pets, “No Go” is one such example which you can purchase from pet stores.

(6)You should have a proper schedule to be familiar with your pugs requirements.

(7) Time and patience is the most important thing you will need besides all the above mentioned points.

The type of crate and its significance which you will need is defined below :-

It would be great to purchase a crate made of moulded fiberglass. As your dog sees the crate he realizes that the crate is a room of his very own when you are not accompanying him or not giving your full attention.

This is really really important. The crate must not be too big. Your pug dog must have enough room to stand up and turn around. If the crate is too large, you will defeat the purpose since your dog will relieve himself in one end and lie in the other. It is also essential to purchase a crate divider because it reduces the size of the dog crate's "living" area while house-breaking pug puppies. It lets just sufficient room for sleeping.

One of the most vital points is keeping a chart to know the every day schedule of your dog. You should note down his playtime, his potty timing, wake up time etc. so that you don’t face any difficulty. All such timings can be known to you after observing his daily activities for at least a week.

Your pugs can understand his “potty area” if you regularly pick your dog up and carry him to the same place. Take a favorite snack of his with you, it could even be the hot dog.

Accompany your dog and have him on a lead if possible. You absolutely should not play with him. Your dog must learn from the starting that this is not playtime or walk time, it is "potty time."

The instant the pup begins to relieve himself, utter the word that you have chosen for your potty word. It can be "go potty", "hurry", or anything else. Just choose a word and don't change it! As the puppy is eliminating, repeat your chosen word in a lovely and praising tone of voice..

Admire your pug puppy when he potties on the chosen location. After potty take him inside and offer favorite snack to him. It is important to take him outside right after food or playtime. You must repeat this sequence till evening.

I personally don't give food and water after 10:00 p.m. to my dog. This seems to help the pup stay clean all through the night. At bedtime, move the crate to your bedside. Make sure your dog is in a draft-free place and has plenty of warm bedding.

(I have found that a cold puppy is soon a "wet" puppy.) Most puppies will settle in comfortably well if they are close to your bed. When the pup wakes up in the morning, he will kick up a fuss to go out. Keep in mind your spot and treats!
