Requirements for training your dog:

(1) To keep your pug in a suitable place is important hence a standard size shipping crate is necessary.

(2) A "Potty area". This must be the same until your dog is completely trained;.

(3) To opt a proper “Potty Word”.

(4) Your puppy's desired snacks. I find small slices of hot dog (the sausage) work great and your dog will love them!.

(5) A cleaner which is non ammonia based for any accident areas. If you can get one that is made specially for pets, they are the best. You should be able to get one which is called "No Go". You can get this from pet stores or catalogs.

(6)You must have a proper schedule to know your pugs requirements.

(7) Above all you require a little bit of time and patience!.

We talk about the crate below:-

If you can obtain the molded, fiberglass type of crate used when shipping by air that is the best type. This will become your dog's "den" and - believe it or not - he will grow to admire it. Your dog will stay in his crate at all times when you are not paying him your full attention.

When you purchase a crate for your pug dog it should be of a standard size as a very large crate can have an effect on your purpose of housetraining. For most young pug puppies, you will require a crate divider. These are very useful because you can buy a crate which will fit your adult dog and utilize it while he is still a puppy.

You must have an appropriate schedule for your dog because it helps to meet your dog’s requirements. The schedule should be designed by observing every day the habits of your puppy.

It is essential to take your pugs every time at the same spot for potty whichever you have decided if the crate door is opened. Take a favorite snack of his with you, it could even be the hot dog.

Stay with your dog and have him on a lead if possible. You absolutely must not play with him. Your dog must learn from the beginning that this is not playtime or walk time, it is "potty time."

The instant the puppy begins to relieve himself, utter the word that you have chosen for your potty word. It can be "go potty", "hurry", or anything you like. Just pick a word and don't change it! As the puppy is eliminating, repeat your chosen word in a pleasant and admiring tone of voice..

Its great to admire your pug puppy after he finishes potty and then take him inside and give food and play with him. The most important thing you should always keep in mind is to take your dog outside after food since dog has the tendency to poop out every 20 minutes after food and then take him back in the crate. This method must be continued till evening.

I personally don't give food and water after 10:00 p.m. to my dog. This seems to help the pup stay clean all through the night. At bedtime, move the crate to your bedside. Make sure your dog is in a draft-free place and has plenty of warm bedding.

(I have observed that a cold puppy is soon a "wet" puppy.) Most puppies will settle in fairly well if they are close to your bed. When the pup wakes up in the morning, he will kick up a fuss to go out. Remember your areas and treats!
