Does anyone have any suggestions for my mommy to help us out with my trainning? I have been living in my new house for a month now and I never come when they call me and I am not doing so good with my potty trainning.

Any help, my mommy will apreciate!

Thanks

I just got a new puppy Layla. She is 2 months and she is almost potty trained. We put down puppy pads where she normally goes to the bathroom. That started working well we have had her a little over 2 weeks. But if you don't want to enforce housetraining then i would recommend keeping your dog on a strict eating routine and take him out every 30 minutes and as her gets older take him out mabe every 45 minutes and so on. With calling his name you want him to get really use to it. I would start inside with just tossing something he can bring back and then call his name after he picks it up. If that doesn't work then I would try just letting him run around the house or yard (if you have a fence) then calling his name whenever he responds and comes reward him with good boy and give him a small treat. When I am training my puppy i normally use cheese slices because it is low calorie and easy for them to chew. I hope this helps!!!!
