I also have my first little one after having big dogs. Training is basically the same except harder. They are not as easy to please as my big dogs and picky on their treats. My 6 month old has been to obedience training and still is having difficulty with sit stay. It is just so hard for them to stay still. Behavior wise I treat him the same as my big dogs. Just remember these little guys need lots of patience and repition. They have tons of energy so play time and later walks are very important. Potty training is more difficult. They have small bladders so start with pad training. Most of us use some time of enclosure or x-pen for our fluffs. This forum is great to help with any questions. I am learning a lot about taking care of these little ones. |
