Potty training your Pit Bull puppy the right way takes time and
a lot of patience. Many different things come in to play as you
are going through the housebreaking process.
If you've been trying to housebreak your new Pit Bull terrier
pup but have been having major problems, then this article is
for you. It is very possible that you have missed some of the
more important points when it comes to puppy potty training.
To help you out, I've created the following list. Take a minute
to read it and see if you spot some things you may not be doing
correctly.
1. Are you writing down your dog's potty habits so that you can
easily spot trends and correct them?
2. Is the entire family on the same page when it comes to
training routine? Consistent repetition is vital to the potty
training process, if you're missing this element you're destined
to fail!
3. Are you going outside with your puppy to confirm that he is
going potty when he's in the yard?
4. Are you using a crate or gate to confine your Pit Bull pup
when you can't keep an eye on him?
5. Are you giving your little pup full run of the house?
6. Do you have unrealistic expectations of your Pit puppy and
then harshly scold him when he messes in the house?
7. Do you keep your puppy's feeding times and portions the same
every single day? It is important to be consistent and don't
give him extras such as treats, etc.
As you can see, there are many areas which are easy to make
errors in and a new dog owner must be very careful not to skip
over any of these steps when trying to housetrain their new
puppy.
