I got Ceeby at eight weeks and he was pretty much pad trained. Even at six weeks when I went to pick him out, the breeder had his litter and another litter in an Xpen with a washable pad. while there, I noticed every time one squatted, she picked it up and set it on the pad. When I brought him home at eight weeks, he went on the pad for two days, then stopped for two days, then started back to peeing on the pad. i didn't have to do anything. While he is still not completely poopy trained, he is pee trained but does lift his leg now. My new baby was nine weeks when I got her and the breeder had not even started to pad train her. She still has a lot of accidents but is mostly training herself to go where the big dogs go. Silk is five and had been trained for a doggy door. i don't have one and she immediately started peeing on the pads. So yes, I do think it is possible for your nine week old puppy to be pad trained but expect a few accidents along the way. |
