If you are consistent, your puppy can learn to "hold it." If at home, be sure to spend some

time with him and bring him outside every 50 minutes. If he goes outside to the toilet, praise

him. Never yell at your dog for relieving itself in the house. He won't know what he did wrong

and will learn nothing. Make it a rule that fifteen minutes after the dog eats or drinks, he is

taken out for a walk. As well, he should be taken out each time he is let out of the crate.

It is important that your dog listens to you. There were some great dog training tips in this
