CRATES MUST NEVER BE USED TO PUNISH! The dog has to look on the crate as his special place where he is safe and happy. Many breeders crate train their puppies from the time they leave the whelping box. Ask the breeder if the puppy has been introduced to a crate. Before bringing puppy home take a blanket or towel to the breeder and ask to put this item in with the litter at night.

Housebreaking a toy dog is not difficult but a job that most people seem to have difficulty at. I can assure you that if you were housebreaking a Great Dane, you would watch the dog like a hawk cause it's no longer a puddle -- It's a lake! THOU SHALT NOT BRING HOME A PUPPY OR ADULT DOG AND EXPECT IT TO KNOW IMMEDIATELY WHERE THE POTTY IS. Every time they move from one home to another they need to be taught where to go. THOU SHALT NOT EXPECT A YOUNG PUPPY OF 8-16 WEEKS TO BE HOUSEBROKEN.

Yes. Crate training is one of the best ways to make sure your dog is healthy, happy and well behaved, especially in your absence. By introducing your puppy to the crate or even a cage or enclosed metal fencing, housebreaking becomes easier. A dog will not willingly "mess" his bed. If you start your puppy with a crate or cage and let him know that is where he is expected to sleep and you also provide comforting toys, it will quickly become his security zone.

This is not good practice since there is a risk that the plunger will "seize" in the sleeve. This usually means that the gooseneck has to be removed and the sleeve replaced which is a costly operation and causes considerable downtime. If the machine is not making castings for 6 hours or more, remove the plunger, clean off the zinc and examine the rings for wear and breakage. Acid (usually muriatic or hydrochloric) will dissolve zinc quickly from molds, plungers, goosenecks etc.

Put your puppy in a small pet carrier or crate while you are busy or gone. Puppies will not use the bathroom where they sleep. Once you get home or the puppy starts crying, immediately take them outside or to the area they are to use the bathroom. Always reward them with a treat. This is supposed to be a very effective way to train your dog. If the crate or cage is too big, however, it will not work. There is lots of good information on the web on how to crate train a dog.

We take a clean, chemical free, spray bottle and fill it with clean water. Adjust the nozzle to spray mist not stream. When pup starts to bark and whine, pick up your bottle which is loaded and nearby, tell pup NO!, and spray a mist into his face. It doesn't hurt the pup and is a "soft" way to correct. Each additional bark/whine must be met with another spray and the corrective NO! Be consistent and teach everyone in the home how to do it.

For the first few days go over all his body, head, ears, paws, belly with your hands. After a few days begin using a soft brush. You don't need to use the brush everywhere, just run your hand over each area. Do this or a minute or so, and gradually extend the length of time over a few days. Make sure to check in the ears, open the mouth and in general look everywhere. This is not only good for getting used to grooming, but later to find problems before they get out of hand.

Please read your owner's manual. For most models, you must put the handle down (in the horizontal position) while it is in the car. In a crash, infant seats can rebound into the vehicle seat. This can break the handle, injuring the infant or another passenger. Britax, Graco and some other manufacturers do allow the handle to remain upright on some of their models.

If you are determined that the pup is to sleep in a designated area and not on your bed there is only one answer, leave it to settle. Some puppies will never cry from the very first night others may take up to a week to settle but they will. Do not keep going to the puppy it will get mixed messages from you and think crying is helping to get attention. A puppy never became ill from whining so don’t worry it will soon learn that bedtime means just that, just as our children do.
