Im getting a puppy for Christmas. I watched this video but my problem is that i have school and i don’t know what to do for my dog when im not home. I kno there’s going to be pee everywhere when i come home. But how can i prevent that from even happening? Plus dogs need to be taken out a lot. But if im at school, it won’t be able to…What should i do??

I have the same situation, got a puppy for xmas, and no one to watch her when at school most of the time, if you get any advice can you inform me haha.?

@10blackjack21 and @genny7172
you should NOT get the puppy. if you cant properly care for the animal (including being able to take it out every couple hours) then you shouldnt own the puppy. Do people not understand common sense today? wow

@10bLaCkJaCk21 I’ve just got a dog too, what I’m doing on school days is building a fence around his kennel a peepee pad, therefore, when he needs to go, he just walks out of his kennel and goes.

Well it took awhile but i trained my puppy to go one the pad awhile ago. he should be able to go outside and use the bathroom soon. @myteloneee, i do know how to take care of a dogs considering ive had one b4. its just that when i got her, she wasnt a puppy like the one i have now. and ive figured out how to deal with the school situation soo stfu

Well, I live in an apartment…. I have those pads and I soak the pee and nothing happens, the puppy keeps peeing on the floor and not on the pad….:((( I’m consistently trying for 2 days now…. I hope in like a week or 2 it will learn to pee on the pad…:))

Of all the videos on youtube on housebreaking this one actually tells you what to do. The rest are just a waste of life.

Is There A Such Thing As A Litter Tray 4 Dogs? Or Is It Only Used For Cats?

@barbaydian261 she’s learned to pee on the pad with the help of her crib… it’s not a crate it’s six pieces of somehow metal fences and I keep her toys in there her “pee pee pad”, bed and her water-food and she has learned… there are of course some accidents but that happens…
