Tucker is 13wks and I am having an easy time training him. I would still like to buy some belly bands to keep just in case. He is only 1.9lbs so what size do I need or do you make them that small?? I have made him a schedule and we stick to that religiously.... He is crate trained so he sleeps there at night and he is training to go outside... I take him outside about every 20-30 minutes and tell him to "potty outside" I tear up a treat to make it real little and he gets alot of praise and part of his treat after he pees and then again after he poops.. He is catching on very quickly. During playtime, I watch for signs and if he is caught in the act, then I firmly say No, Outside and take him out immediately.. At this point he does not get a treat.. Only if he goes on his own outside.. If we are in a heavy playtime, then i will stop and take him outside to be safe... I will admit that I worry about him peeing somewhere and me not seeing it so the belly bands would be great... He now understand to go to the door when I say lets potty outside...Consistancy is the key...and the schedule has worked wonders...Feeding him at a set time 3 x a day lets me know when he shall need to poop...... |
