The Pomeranian is a cute and courageous animal that will win your heart not only because of its affectionate and adorable nature, but because it is a great watch dog as well and despite its small size, it is not going to back down when confronted with danger. However, it is not so easily housebroken and Pomeranian potty training is something for which you need plenty of patience and also a great deal of perseverance, especially in the first few weeks when a new puppy comes into your home.
The first step in Pomeranian potty training is to keep it in a playpen that also has clean newspaper down and where its food and water are kept along with a comfortable bed where it can sleep. It is a good idea to begin its potty training by taking it out when he wakes up in the morning and show him the area where he should go. The same can be done after each meal and when he does the right thing you should always reward him to reinforce the training. There is no doubt that accidents will often occur, but with patience and perseverance you should be able to see things through. However, make sure not to physically punish or rub its nose in an accident, as these won’t do your pet any good.
There is a lot more to Pomeranian training than taking it out to where it should go, because good potty training will also require you to clean up after it and when doing so to ensure that you clean up all traces of the accident so that no trace of it lingers. In fact, there are also some products available on the market that smell just like urine and by placing these where you want your Pomeranian to go. You will get good results because your pet will readily associate the smell with having to go potty.
Then again, you should also remember that good Pomeranian training methods do not include physical punishment of any kind, even if you catch him in the act where he should not be messing up. Rather you must make a loud clapping sound and even say the word no forcefully and loudly and then take it outside where it can then go. The sound of the clap and your voice should make it realize that it is doing something wrong and thus get the idea about where to go when wanting to defecate.
Pomeranian potty training is not a very difficult task provided you approach it with the right frame of mind and also get your pet started out on learning and being given the proper training as soon as he becomes a member of your family. Also, there will be many instances when you catch him in the act of making a mess where he shouldn’t and at such times you need to remember that you should not rub its nose in the mess or use any physical reprimand because that is not the right way to go about potty training.
Once more than a few seconds have elapsed since your Pomeranian has done something wrong, he will forget and not be able to associate his past actions with any discipline that you give. Thus, you should not harp about what has already happened. Just clean up the mess thoroughly and continue your positive reinforcement training.
One of the better means by which to learn about proper Pomeranian training is to read up on various dog training methods. You should get the complete lowdown on Pomeranian training through the use of good Dog training books that will show you how to get the best results.
