Housetraining Your Puppy
Article Resource: http://www.dogtraininghq.com

Unfortunately, puppies don’t usually come house trained. You must realize that over the next few weeks YOU will need much patience and time to house train your puppy correctly.

If you want your pup to go to the bathroom outside, you need to pay attention to the times that he will be needing to use the bathroom. Activities like eating, drinking, playing and waking up from naps will all stimulate your pup to go. When he needs to go outside, it helps if you condition him by saying "outside" or "out" in a high-pitched tone of voice, just to get him used to the idea of where he is going. He will soon learn what you mean and that it is time to go to the bathroom.

You must establish where you want your puppy to eliminate. To do this correctly, you have to go outside with your pup every time he needs to go to the bathroom. By your being there, you can easily praise him as soon as he begins to sniff or squat to urinate. You need to praise him in a high-pitched tone of voice, so that he feels he is pleasing you each time he eliminates.

Another consideration in house training your puppy is controlled by when you feed your puppy. Most puppies eliminate within just a few minutes of their meals, so as soon as your puppy moves away from his food bowl, or after 10 minutes, whichever comes first, pick up the food bowl, and then immediately take him outside. Make sure to praise him quickly and soon because praising that comes after he is done, even after 10 seconds, does no good.

I Am Constantly Being Asked... What is a Schnoodle?

Schnoodles are a cross between a Schnauzer and a Poodle. They vary in size, depending on the size of the parents, from Miniatures maturing between 10 and 15 pounds, to Standards maturing up to 60 pounds!

The most popular size is the Mini Schnoodle. They are very good with children, quite tolerant of alot of rough-housing. On a range of 1-10, 10 being the most active (like a Jack Russel Terrier!), they will generally fall in the range of 4-7. Most have a soft and fluffy coat, which is non-shedding, and quite well tolerated by most people with allergies. Some Schnoodles have a harsher, more terrier type coat, which sheds some while the pup is young, but sheds very little when the dog matures. Coat type is evident by about 5 weeks of age. Coat colors are quite varied - solids like black, silver, white, tan, apricot, sables (a mixture of gold and black), and parti's too - black and white like holstein cows. Phantoms are also quite common - that's black and apricot like the color of doberman pinschers. Schnoodles are quite intelligent and easily trained. They have a more active nature, like terriers, but do enjoy settling down while you read a book or watch TV.
