    Housebreaking fundamentals
    1.Dogs respond to odours and they’ll urinate where there is the smell of dog urine. Eliminate the smell associated with mishaps from your home by simply cleaning with white vinegar.
    2.Always take your puppy outside to “potty” after sleeping, eating and during playtime.
    3.Crate or confine your puppy to a small area at night and anytime you’re unable to monitor your puppy.
    4.When puppy urinates or defecates at the “potty” place, lavish lots of praise on puppy and give him a treat instantly. These actions tell puppy he has accomplished a wonderful thing. If preferred, you might include a command word while he’s performing his business.
    5.After success at the “potty” spot, puppy may have freedom of the home for a short period of time. The amount of time is based on his age.
    6.In the event of no results during a “potty break” after 5 minutes, bring puppy inside and place him in his crate for half an hour and then repeat the process.
    7.If you catch puppy in the act, yell NO and race puppy to the “potty” place. If puppy does “potty” more at the correct place, praise and treat. Thoroughly clean up the accident prior to returning puppy to the room.
    8.A young puppy must not be confined to a crate for lengthy periods of time. A general time line is to expect a Pomeranian puppy to be able to hold on for absolutely no more hours than the number of months of their age.

    How To Crate Train An Older Dog. Crate training is a very effective method for training a dog not to make messes in the house. It works because dogs hate soiling themselves in the same place where they sleep. A crate provides your dog with a place where he won’t want to make a mess. Once you have shown him where NOT to go, it becomes easier to show him where he’s allowed to do potty. This applies equally well to puppies and older dogs. It’s actually a good method for crate training an older dog.

    Most people confuse their dogs because they change vocal and visual cues used. The same visual cues could mean different things. Words can be used in varying contexts so it’s hardly surprising that dogs don’t go crazy trying to interpret what their owners want. However, dogs are intelligent (for the most part) so they manage to figure out what you’re trying to tell them. Make it easier for your dog to know what you want and he’ll love you for it.

    Body language.

    The trouble with using body language is that what a human may think something means is actually different to the way a dog interprets it. Here are some guidelines you can follow to help with better communications:

    Some of the greatest times you spend with your Pom are when you’re both relaxing and watching TV, or fooling around at home where nobody can see the silly things you get up to. However, it’s also great fun being outside, whether you’re walking your dog along a path, around a sports ground or share good times in a doggie park where other people can also see you. These are just a few of the activities you can do with your beloved pet whilst outside the home.
    Playing in the park.
    Letting your dog run free in a dog park is great fun for both you and him. There are different types of parks. Some are open to anybody while others require a membership. Some parks request a payment each time you visit and others will keep the big and small dogs separate for safety. Some of the parks have equipment you can use. Avoid places where your pet can play with big dogs you don’t know or those who aren’t controlled by their owners. Never let your pet go anywhere prior to receiving all vaccinations. Then the real fun can start!

    Because Pomeranians are toy dogs, you may be fooled into thinking they’ll spend every day sitting quietly and calmly. However, nothing could be further from the truth. They have boundless energy, running around inside your home, barking at shadows and jumping up and down at your feet.

    It’s fun to have an active dog but what if he’s hyperactive?

    It’s common for dogs who are very active to be labelled as “hyperactive,” when the truth is that they may not have enough ways they can burn off all their excess energy. If your Pom can be described in this way, you need to give him more exercise, both physical and mental, so he tires faster READ MORE…..

    I’m passionate about training puppies by using a leash. In some ways it resembles the way a human baby works out something new or sees something they haven’t seen before. Think of a ball of clay, waiting for your hands to mould it into something special.

    Remember that new puppies haven’t experienced wearing a leash until now. Most breeders don’t have time to ensure all puppies are properly crate and leash trained. This is good news because it means you can train your new puppy to do what YOU want and have loads of fun doing so.

    It’s critical to get your puppy used to a leash in a positive manner, READ MORE….
