Successfully Housebreaking Your Dog 2

If given a choice, dogs, like people, will never sleep in an area that is soiled with pee or poop. In the wild, "dogs" (wolves, coyotes, foxes, etc.) sleep in a den and go outside to relieve themselves. Their pups learn to do the same. Because dogs will try their best not to soil their sleeping area, your puppy is less likely to pee or poop in a small "den." Confining him to that "den" whenever you can't watch him will guarantee he doesn't get a chance to begin the bad

A very young puppy (under 12 weeks old) will need to go more often --every 30 minutes or even more frequently. For an older puppy, a general rule for determining the number of hours he can go without going potty is to take his age in months and add one. So a four-month-old could hold it for about five hours.

Dogs That Escape

Because he couldn't reach any higher. No owner likes to get a call from the pound telling them that their dog has been picked up for roaming the streets, but even the best trained dog can escape and end up in places where it shouldn't be. In many towns you can find yourself in legal trouble if your dog is found to be wandering the streets. And quite rightly so as a dog on the loose can do quite a lot of damage to other people's property, pets, children and elderly folk. Dogs that

Dog Food

You certainly wouldn't want to be feeding a sedentary dog as much food as one that is exercising regularly or a working dog. The dog's activity levels are very important when deciding how much to feed it. Over-feeding will obviously lead to an overweight dog with corresponding health problems and a potential shortening of its life.
