Potty training is critical for your puppy's happiness — and yours! With structure, patience, and the “Potty for Life” approach, you’ll get there in 3–4 short weeks.

Consistent Schedule

• Go out first thing in the morning, after meals/drinks, naps, before bed, and once at night
• Every 2.5 hours—plus 30 minutes post-eating
• Limiting water intake can be very beatifical for the first few weeks of potty training. 
  
  

Potty for Life Method

• Designate a spot in your yard with a small pen
  
• Always use the same door and spot
  
• Avoid play until they finish—make it all business!
