New Puppy Training
Welcome to New Puppy Training. Dogs that are handled and petted by humans regularly during the first eight weeks of life are generally much more amenable to being trained and living in human households. Ideally, puppies should be placed in their permanent homes between about 8 and 10 weeks of age. In some places it is against the law to take puppies away from their mothers before the age of 8 weeks. Puppies are innately more fearful of new things during the period from 10 to 12 weeks, which makes it harder for them to adapt to a new home.
A puppy requires discipline, consistency, and the patience of its owner. The puppy training phase is integral in raising a healthy and happy dog and keeping a safe and fun home environment.

Sandy asks…
How do I get my new beagle puppy to sleep through the night?
My boyfriend and I just got a beagle puppy and he wakes us up every 2 hours just wanting to be held. Any ideas on what to do about that. Will that change?
This is our first time having a puppy. We are not exactally sure on how to potty train him too
admin answers:
For potty training, he should have a crate. He stays in the crate all day at first – you pick him up and carry him outside first thing in the morning. Play for about an hour, then feed him. A half hour later take him out again. Then it’s crate time for maybe 2 hours. Pick him up and carry him outside to go potty, play a little bit & then back to the crate for a few hours. Keep continuing this 2 hour potty cycle until dinner time, then you take him outside, play for an hour, feed him & go potty again.
He should sleep in his crate at night, if the crate is small enough, he won’t go potty in it. He’ll learn how to hold it through the night.
If you take him out at 11 and get up at 6 to take him out again, he should be fine. Just be sure to stick to a regular schedule – dogs like set schedules.
You can also train your dog to ring a bell when he has to go potty. Just have a bell by the door and tap his paw on it every time you take him outside. He’ll make the connection between the bell and going potty – soon he’ll be doing it himself.
Ignore his cries and he’ll stop. It may be loud and it may be annoying, but you’re teaching your puppy that every time he cries you come running. Sounds more like he’s training you, huh?
Just be strong, he’ll be fine. Maybe get him a stuffed animal so he doesn’t feel so lonely.
