If you want to success in Pug potty training, then you must stick with one particular schedule so your Pug knows what to expect. Why? Well, consistency is very important with your Pug. After every meal, take your Pugout to relieve it. Every time it wakes up, whether from nighttime sleep or a nap during the day, take him out.
How to do it? Well, most trainers agree, the best way of Pug house training is to use a kennel or crate. Why? Well, all dogs do not like dirtying the places where they sleep, so they will do anything they can to keep from eliminating in their kennel or crate. That is why you should keep them housed in there at night. They won’t wander your home in the middle of the night leaving little puddles of piddle for you to step in later. By crating your Pug, he will learn to control his bladder and bowels all night until such time he can relieve himself in the morning.
And remember, patience is necessary no matter what dog breed you are trying to potty train. Just know that accidents will happen. Do not scold or yell at your Pug. He is a sensitive animal. Just be firm, loving and consistent.
Go with positive reinforcement rather than negative reinforcement when training your Pug dog. You’ll get much better results, trust me! Most people assume that Pugs are easy to train. Well, the fact of the matter is this breed is dog is very headstrong and can be a tough nut to crack. Pugs may be small in stature but they are mighty in spirit. They just do not seem to know that they are small. That is why some owners have a bit of a time establishing that they are top dog over their diminutive dog. It is because of their nature that lots of love and patience is necessary to potty train them.
Potty training your Pug is only as difficult or easy as you make it. Yes, they can be stubborn little dogs, but they are smart and once you find the right “trick” to reach past that stubbornness, you will have them potty trained in no time at all.
