We can train dogs in many different ways, and sometimes harsher punishments work faster, but that doesn’t mean they work long term or that there won’t be some side effects, perhaps you should look up submissive urination, you might have a problem with that in the future, or maybe you’ll have rehomed the dog by then. It’s sad to me, that you haven’t read enough about the breed, and believe that a 10 week old dog should be housebroken; she should still be with her mama! Housebreaking is a gradual process, and they don't learn in one trial, and everything has side effects. At this age, your job is to make your puppy feel safe, loved, and confident. |
