A lot of people use X-pens for their puppies. That way when you cannot watch the pup it is in a small confined place but has a potty and a comfortable bed.
As someone already said a puppy the age of yours cannot control the bladder and bowel functions. It has to be near the potty at all times.
If you keep the pup with you as much as you can you will learn it's little signals that it does when it is getting ready to potty. They tend to sniff the floor or go in circles. That is your signal to make sure the pup gets on the potty pad. When they are that young they do go often since they have tiny bladders.
It is almost a full time job at first. Don't get discouraged. It gets better but it takes a lot of time and consistent training. |
