Hi,
I’m having a hard time house breaking my puggle. For a while he was doing good and going outside. But he goes into cycles where he either he just pee’s outside and poops inside or vis versa. what did you do with tuff guy to house break him?

Thanks

my email is aholley2@emich.edu

Alexis,

I am so sorry I didn’t get right back to you. A day can seem like forever when housebreaking.

There really isn’t a simple answer. What worked for TuffGuy was a combination of praise (they love to please) and treats. They can be very stubborn little dogs but they are also very smart. The combination of praise and a treat (we used little pieces of hot dog – he loves them) did the trick. But you must be consistent and the reinforcement must be immediate and, as I said, praise must be a big part of it.

Make eye contact, rub his ears, and let him know he did good. He will get the message. You may have to keep the treats up for a while…so pick something you can afford. A couple of bits of hot dog won’t break you and it won’t hurt him either.

Good luck and happy holidays Alexis!

Remember:

Treat
Praise
Consistency

Take care!

John and TuffGuy
