Most of us are not stay at home dog owners
who can watch our puppies all the time. We have work, school and other
obligations that force us to leave our little furry friends home for
most of the day alone.
This really is not the best way to put to
good use all that you have heard about how to house train a
puppy as
most of them tell you that you need to be home all day. So what you
really need to learn is how to house train a puppy while working a full
time job.
It is really not going to be an easy task.
Having a little puppy, which has very little knowledge of what is right
and what is wrong will have a hard time being home alone. With no one
to tell him what to do and do and no one around to provide
companionship, it can become very lonely.
This is such an impressionable time in your
puppy's life so being home alone is not the best choice and if you have
any opportunity to avoid doing so, I highly recommend it.
Beyond just learning how to house train a
puppy in your spare time, it is important to really consider if this is
even the right time for you to raise a puppy. When you come home from
work will you be able to give your puppy the attention and love it
deserves?
Will you be able to come home and patiently
clean up any messes or accidents that happened while you were gone? Can
you find a way to come home at some point during the day to take your
puppy outside to go to the bathroom?
If not, is there anyone who can visit my
home and take my puppy out? It really wouldn't be fair to expect your
puppy to 'hold it' all day long while you are gone.
If after saying yes to the above questions
you want to continue on with learning how to house train a puppy while
working full time then here are some tips that will get you started
down the right track.
1. Timing Is Important
Get your new puppy when your life is not as
stressful as other times of the year. For example, if you are a teacher
you may want to get one in the summer time when you have less work.
Also during the summer the days are longer so you can spend more time
outdoors after work with your puppy.
2. Get Some Assistance
See if you can get a neighbor, friend,
family member or maybe even your kids to help out with potty training
your puppy while you are at work.
3. Sign Up For A Training Course
If you can join a dog training course and
learn how to house train a puppy early on that is the best solution.
Since you work full time and have very little time to attend formal
classes you will benefit greatly from online ones. I recommend Dog
Train Academy because it is very inexpensive and allows you to learn at
your own pace online when ever you have time.
