What's the best way to housebreak a puppy?

This is a leading, puppy FAQs question! The simplest and easiest way to housebreak your puppy, is by using a crate. Crate-training works WITH your puppy's natural instincts and helps speeds up the whole potty training process.


Any puppy of 8 weeks of age or older can begin crate-training. A 9 - 10 week old puppy can stay in his crate for 30 mins at a time, when he reaches around 18 weeks or so, he can spend up to 6 hours per day and overnight in his crate.


However, a crated puppy needs plenty of 'free' time and one-on-one interaction with his family as well. Crates should never be used as a punishment.
