Making Your Poodle Dog Learn About Cleanliness

2008-05-21T12:55:00.000-07:00

Your puppy must learn the most indispensable thing in housebreaking. This is very important as you always want your house to look spic and span, right? In this way, you should handle well your puppy’s housebreaking attitude. Aside from household hygiene maintenance you must also consider that poodles are happy animals. It is always their habit to play, it’s their nature to run around, play with your kids and all the crazy things they can do to make them happy.

The following are basic things you should consider how you can handle the housebreaking of your poodle puppy.

Ideal housekeeping

– When your poodle puppy reaches the age of eight to twelve years old it’s their time to begin housebreaking. Remember on the old adage which says “old dogs can’t learn new tricks” and with this you must not take chances because it’s really true.

Many experts in dog training always recommend using crate in housebreaking your poodle puppy. This crate is something like a cage only that it has see-through bars and a locking door. You should carefully see to it that its size is very convenient for your poodle to move around. He should feel it like his own bedroom. The most common advice is not to confine your puppy from his crate for more than two hours at a time. Crates help dogs keep their sleeping areas clean. However, he may do so if you lock him in somewhere for longer than he can hold it in. Never use a crate to punish your dog, it will backfire. Generally, pups that are three-months old must eliminate every 3 hours, so you should lead him to a special outdoor comfort place more often.

Your puppy must learn routines

– It is also very advisable that when you have very important thing to do, like going to the market, you must leave the house through one door only. This door should be the door where your poodle puppy scratches when he feels like urinating or when he is called by nature. Taking your pup out at around the same times every day will be very beneficial for the both of you. This will help in establishing a routine, and will make him learn to hold it in until you become available to take him out.

Look For Clues

- If your un-housebroken dog is accustomed to roaming freely around the house, search for signs that show you he needs to do it. Be really observant enough of his behavior, i.e., heavy sniffing, circling an area, staring at the door with an intense look on his face, etc. If you catch him WHILE doing it, stop him with a quick grab of his collar and pull it up while saying "No" using your deep, stern tone (don't forget to use a deep, gruff voice when stating commands). Then, take him outside and let him finish what he is doing. Lastly, pat him on his head while saying "Good (his name)!"It is a must to make your dog get used to being praised whenever he does anything that makes you proud. Giving him food as a reward when he does his business in the appropriate spot can help, too.

Patience is a Big Virtue

- Like any training endeavor, housebreaking requires a lot of patience. If you definitely despise cleaning your poodle dog's waste off your Persian carpets on an hourly basis and having your whole house smell like a public bathroom, you want the housebreaking to be successful. Common sense will help you big time in dealing with your puppy's housebreaking. Logical thinking should inform you to not give your dog water before bedtime if his tendency is to pee often at night time. Catering to his schedule first will prove to be very helpful in making it gradually change into yours.Aside from patience and common sense, consistency is also one of the important factors of this dog training activity. If you suddenly forget about the routines yourself, don't blame if your dog if he starts committing accidents more often.Remember that the stakes are high (dirty and malodorous house). If you would like succeed in this housebreaking feat or just about in any other training drills, don't treat it as a game. Allot enough time and commitment on your part.
