Getting a puppy isn’t just fun and games, there is a certain amount of responsibility in maintaining them with perhaps none more frustrating than potty training puppies. It's not like you can tell them to use the bathroom whenever they feel it's time to go, even if you were successful, the best of luck to get them to flush the toilet after they finish.

There's no need to worry because there are established methods you can use to make sure that your puppies relieve themselves where and when you want them to. You might even be surprised as to how easy potty training a puppy is. Really how easy? Well easy enough to summarize in three steps:

Three Steps in Potty Training a Puppy

1. Set up the mpuppes meals to promote the call of nature - There's a specific amount of time that a puppies digestive system needs to go through its cycle and get from meal to waste. This is different from puppy to puppy so watch the amount of time it takes your puppy to do it's business after a full meal. You might need several monitoring sessions to determine the average amount of time required but once that's established you can proceed to step two.

2. Take the business inside or outside - Figure out whether you want your puppy to do its business inside your house or outdoors. Keep in mind that what is important is what is convenient to you because you can go either way. Whether you are potty training puppies indoors or outdoors you would still have to clean up after it.

3. Plastic or paper - If you're going to train your puppy to do its business inside, then you need a good amount of newspaper and scent spray which you'll find in most pet stores.

a. Whenever your puppy needs to relieve itself lay down a generous stack of newspapers and spray a small amount of scent spray on it.

b. Restrict the puppy within the newspaper covered area and wait until it relieves itself. Immediately after it does, let your puppy smell the scent on the newspaper.

c. Repeat b until your puppy gets used to the newspaper or the scent it will look for either of the two next times it needs to relieve itself.

If you are training the puppy to do its business outdoors then just take it out for a walk. After a while, your pup will eventually find a spot and assume the position. Don't forget to clean up after your puppy does it's business. Sooner or later when the puppy gets used to this system it will show signs of wanting to go outside when it feels the urge to commune with nature.

And there you have it three sure fire easy steps for potty training puppies. It's not expensive; it doesn't take a university degree, not even awkwardly over-priced tools - just some good old patience.
