My puppy Cocker Spaniel is gonna drive me crazy! How can I teach him how to wait to potty outside...?

Question

and also how can I teach him how to go lay down in his bed and not to do certain things? He is very nosy and I think that just comes with him being a puppy. I want to know when the nosiness will end. I am also scared that he will hurt himself if I am not around. Will puppies hurt themself unintentionally or am I just being silly and should let him roam free and stop worrying about him.

Answer 1

I have 4 cocker spaniels! and they are curious dogs!! You need to crate train your puppy starting now. This will help with chewing, potty training and everything else! When you potty train him take him to the same spot in the yard that he went before if you can. Use words like "go potty" or whatever you are comfortable with and then when he does you praise him! let him know that he did good! Crate training and potty training does not happen overnight. You have to be patient and consistant with it. When he does have an accident in the house clean it up with 1/2 vinegar 1/2 water solution this removes the enzymes that makes the odor and he will be less likely to go back to the same spot and do it again. Having a puppy is alot like having a baby, they are dependent on you to learn what is right and wrong for food and water and for care and nuturing.

Crate training would be a great opportunity for you and the dog. It doesn't have to be forever either, just until she has the basics down. Morning rolls around, take her out for excersize, then feed than crate. She will be naturally tired and more acceptable towards the crate. Pups don't want to be alone, so don't expect to leave her home for hours, and no destructable toys or rawhides in the crate, she could choke when you're not around. She will not potty where she sleeps so take her out 20 mins after eating sooner if needed. Sounds like you want a more independant dog and you ended up with a dependant one. Control this before it turns into seperation anxiety. Puppies are naturally curious and will / could get into trouble because they don't know what's bad or good, that's your job to teach them.

Answer 3

Your puppy is a baby and that is part of the responsiblity of acquiring dogs that are young. They are too young to learn down stay or to leave things alone. You can teach them what NO means and tell them that when they do things that are not acceptable but that means you must supervise them. You should NOT let him roam free outside unless you have a fenced yard. He will be very puppylike for the first year, neutering him will help some later.

in simple terms like in human beings, melancholy can "depress" the immune gadget, which leaves them extra susceptible. So can rigidity: issues like a chum shifting away, or shifting homestead themselves. although, the depressed indications could desire to be the beginning up of something else, no longer the consequence of something else. Nosebleeds are frequently a symptom of nasal cancers. possibly the canine became into feeling poorly from a tumor beginning so which you spotted the quieter habit, and the nosebleeds have been the subsequent symptom. examine along with your vet to ascertain there is not any longer maximum cancers springing up, or another ailment. A blood try is a stable thank you to p.c. out some cancers. If the vet you're seeing won't pursue looking what's incorrect, get a 2nd opinion. additionally, do no longer beat your self up over it, your canine's potential to heal can often be tormented by utilising your physique of strategies (advantageous and hopeful or worrying and discouraged).

Answer 5

Never let a puppy roam free. You really need to train your puppy..they cant train themselves. Get a crate for the housebreaking and a book on training.
