i have learned that it is all about consistancy and being available to help your pup at all times learn. if you are going to pad train you must have your pup in your site at all times when not crated or in a pen so that you can catch them when sniffing or in the act to say no and take to the pad. otherwise, one minute you arent looking and they are peeing on the rug and think its ok to pee there. I started off pad training. then slowly i learned that lola preferred to go outside to do her busienss. now we have gotten her trained to go outside but have a pad to pee pee when we go out to work or run errands and she goes on there. i guess i am lucky but it took alot of time and patience.
now we take her out 5-6 times a day and seh goes every single time, even if it is a quick pee. you need to decide where u will want the pup to go and work from there. you need to make their free roam space small while training. they will learn |
