Things to consider when Puppy Litter Training

Keep in mind when litter training your puppy that the size of your puppy is going to come to be a factor. Larger puppies want larger boxes or puppy pads. The reason for this is larger dogs require large boxes, and large dogs end up with... Well larger things come out of them. So litter training a large dog might not be the best way to housebreak your puppy. But if you choose to toilet train your puppy with a litter box you need to know how to set up the puppy box.

Setting up your puppy's litter box is much like setting up a litter box for your cats. You need to get a large tray that is big adequate for your puppy to maneuver in. Get the same kind of granules that you would buy for your kitty litter box and fill the tray with it. You want to make sure that the tray is deep adequate to hold enough granules to enable them to suck in your puppy's urine, yet low adequate to allow your puppy to comfortably climb into it and use the toilet. You should get the kind of kitty litter granules that discharge the puppy's urine and form hardened clumps that are easy to scoop out and throw away with the poop.

Teaching your Puppy to Use a Litter can be just as tricky as paper training your puppy. You should use your training crate to hold your puppy until you are sure that he will all the time go to his litter tray to do his business. This can take a while and as your puppy is surface of the training crate, you need to watch your puppy at first. If you see that your puppy is starting to squat or lift up his leg, you need to direct him to his litter box before he does it. That is the best way.

If you see the mess already, put him in the training crate. Leave him in there for a while. Keep in mind, when your puppy does his firm other than in his litter box, tell him "No!"

Praise and recompense your puppy every time you see him do his company in his litter box. Tell your puppy "good boy" or "good girl" when he goes to his or her litter tray without your guiding him or her. Give him a treat and he will at last learn that this is the puppy toilet.

Keeping the litter box clean is very prominent to make your puppy comfortable doing his firm in there. The right granules will solidify when they come in experience with urine. These solid clumps can undoubtedly be scooped up and thrown away with a permissible scooper. The permissible litter scooper is a sifted scooper, which has slats that allow the dry litter to fall back into the litter tray but hold the clumps that are too big to fall through the slats. This means that you are able to pick up the urine clumps together with the poop and conveniently throw it into the garbage, like with a cat litter box. Make sure that after cleaning your dog's litter box, the granules are spread evenly. You should add new granules occasionally.

Remember. It's all in the litter training. Puppies usually learn fast if you are persistent. If you pick to litter train a larger dog, you will still need to take him for a walk so that he can get the exercise he needs.
