thank you those tips are awesome, i'm really trying to prepare before we get him and my fingers are crossed for the housebreaking process.
one thing i've heard that i wanted to ask about.... I have heard that while housebreaking to only go outside to "go potty". We are going to get the pup in spring/summer, does this mean no walks or trips anywhere? my son plays baseball and then soccer into july and i walk almost every day. Can puppy come or will he get confused? Will it be ok as long as I stick to the treat when he goes outside even if we are out for "pleasure" and not potty?
which makes me think of another question (haha sorry, 1st puppy

)... pups shots aren't finished until 12 weeks right? or is it later? and they shouldnt be out before then??
thanks agian, you guys are awesome!!
