| just got puppy and have question! We just got our little guy and we are in love!!!! BUT he will not go potty. If we take him out and he does not go should we put him back in his crate and then take him out 10 min later or so ? Should we keep doing this? |

| If this is your little guys first day he is probably just scared to his new surroundings. Keep taking him out to give him a chance. Sooner or later he will get the picture Also is he drinking enough? I know with my 2 when they first came home they did nothing but sleep for a couple of days. Barely drank water, didn't eat, I had to homecook for them so they did. After they got used to our home they were fine and dandy, lol! Feel free to ask away! There are wonderful people here on YT willing to jump in and help at the first site of the question! |

| When you take him out, try to get him to walk around a bit, as that can stimulate them to go. I would just keep trying, and make sure he drinks enough. It might take him a day or two to get used to his new surroundings. Can't wait to see pictures!

| Just want to wish you luck in the potty training department. As mentioned above, be sure that he drinks enough. If you wonder how he is doing, just check his gums. If they're pink you're in the clear. Have fun!!!
