My sis brought home a puppy yesterday, i have no idea how to potty train it....

he will pee in the right spot now, thank goodness but im trying to figure out how to get him to #2 in the right spot..... and how will this work out for when he gets older, how can he make the transition....

and when will he stop waking up every 2 hours, hes now 8 weeks old....

the most complex animal ive ever had was a cat, i had a hamster..... some body help me

 

You will have to learn to poop and scoop until it finds the proper place to do its business.

 

Use newspaper. I got my puppy at 2 months and it peed and sh*tted all over my apartment. Took it 3 months before it was trained.

we got puppy pads for him but imma gunna go cheap chinese and use newpaper, i think im gunna lock him in the bathroom during the day x.x

 

quarantine the puppy in the area you want it to poop/pee in, and after a while it should just naturally go back to that spot. it worked for me, don't know whats a proper way of doing it though. good luck!

 

Training the dog while its still a puppy is absolutely critical for it to lead a healthy life. It takes a lot of time, patience, and effort but in the end its all worth it. Read books, (if you can) enroll in a class, and socialize the dog.

 

Simple food in poop out, water in pee out.

Dogs like consistancy, put them on a schedule feed at the same time daily, this will put their digestion on the same schedule.

Example:

feed 8am, take to pooping area and wait for them do do their business.
feed again at 5pm, wait again for them to do their business.

There are a lot of other things involved like age and blader size, go to the library or book store and read up on it, its pretty logical and basic.

And keep an eye on them 100% of the time in the house unless in a pin.

Check your local veterinary clinics for advice, literatures, and look into dog training/behavior classes.
