Potty Trainning

When we get our new members to our family(Pets). It is important that establish there den, I call it kennel training. Now the size of the kennel should be only big enough for them to stand up with out hitting there heads. Also only enough space to do a 360 turn and to lye down comfortably. Anything bigger than that they'll have room to do peeps and poops on one side and the other side lye down. NO its not wrong to only offer this space. Remember we are creating a den not an apartment LOL. All dogs love there dens, in fact they look forward to it if introduced positively, not as punishment. As we are kennel training the we are also training them to build the bladders so that we don't have accidents. A key thing to remember is when we feed them we have about 20 to 30 minutes before they need the bathroom. Good Luck

Training our pets

The most common reasons people give up on there pets are, they have no communication with there pets. that's where training comes in. When we teach sit, stay, down, leave it, walking on a loose leash(leadership walks) and most important of all the look at me command, which is also known as attention and focus. We create not only a bond but we become the pack leader when we spend the time with our pets. Then the communication has been established. Why did we get pet in the first place, not only to take up space but to become an important member in our family. So we call our selves Pet parents (LOL). So as pet parents it is our responsibility as we do with our children we need to get training for our pets.
