I try to put him in my lap at first, if this doesn't work, he goes in his xpen or crate and almost always falls to sleep. I never let him run around by himself (cause of chewing and pottying) and he only gets to touch his cute little paws to my carpets when he has just gone pee and poo. Good Luck. Like babies, they eventually grow out of it! |
So true. People do not realize the work involved and you have to stay on top of this, his or her training depends so much upon you just like a real child.
Best of luck
