Understanding what it means to housebreak a new puppy…

The important foundational understanding to housebreaking a new puppy is to recognize from the start that it’s your job. Yup, that’s it, you’re committed. Remember your wide-eyed kids promising to do everything to take care of him if they could just have one of those free puppies they were giving out in front of Kmart? “C’mon Mom, they’re free!” Admit it, you’ve been duped. You forgot to read the fine print that this promise only applies to the first week. Housebreaking a new puppy simply isn’t on a nine-year-old’s list of top ten things to do today. Not as if it’s on your list either, but the new puppy breaking loose on the house sure is on your list of top ten things not to do today.

Getting involved in the housebreaking of a new puppy…

Once you recognize that this is officially your task, the good news is that housebreaking a new puppy isn’t as bad as it seems, if you’ve got the right tools. To the common, uneducated layman, it would seem that housebreaking a new puppy would involve a gas mask, a full plastic biohazard suit, and a fire hose. People who take this route rave about how extensively it prepares them in case they ever need to deal with nuclear fallout in the local neighborhood. However, if you’re willing to forego such valuable preparation, we’re here to tell you that housebreaking a new puppy doesn’t have to be nearly so involved, or expensive.

A Dog Door for Housebreaking Dogs?

Although in housebreaking dogs a doggie door is a handy way for your dog to get out, realize that it is just as easy for other critters to get in. That’s right, did you know that in the process of housebreaking your dog you just made your home the coolest new place to explore for your friendly neighborhood raccoons, possums, feral cats, skunks, and the occasional anorexic, greased-down thief? Your dog housebreaking expertise will really begin to pay dividends when you find your dog eagerly sharing with you all his “treasures” he just found outside. This is not to mention the typical grass, leaves, mud, and snow he’ll track in. Speaking of snow, Rover might not be too keen on your dog housebreaking plans when it involves him freezing his little paws off. Your bed may seem like a much more viable option for him in this case. The “break” in the term “housebreaking dogs” will begin to take on a much more literal meaning for you.

Housebreaking dogs via the doggie door may also mean that a few other household items go through that door too. After all, your dog probably has ambitions for that doggie door beyond housebreaking, such as rearranging your furniture outside, and if you’re lucky, underground. Conjure up in your mind everything in your house the size of your dog or smaller: fair game. Did you ever think that housebreaking dogs could be so much fun? Its like an Easter-egg hunt, all year. “Honey, where’s the remote?” Uh-oh… Start digging!

My first exposure to housebreaking puppies was when my little brother Ben first introduced Prince to the family. Somehow Ben had kept up his grades like he promised and Dad let him pick out the newest member of our family as a reward. The concept of housebreaking puppies had for some reason never crossed our minds until we first met the little guy. I thought I would melt into a puddle he was so cute! However this was unnecessary since Prince quickly proved himself already quite capable in the puddle business. Ben cleaned it up that time. Our puppy housebreaking battle had just begun…

Housebreaking Puppies: New Surprises

Before long, housebreaking puppies became a moot point in my mind. I was more concerned in bringing about a brother-breaking reform for Prince. He was quite content to sleep on Ben’s bed at night (who seemed overly optimistic about housebreaking puppies), but soon Prince became restless and tried out a little change of scenery, such as my convenient bed on the other side of the room. Prince’s innocent little face after the deed was done told me that he was completely ignorant of his infraction of international puppy housebreaking law, but I for one didn’t buy it. I spent the rest of the night on the couch, dreaming things that would make that little guy think twice about repeating such an action if he knew of them.

Techniques for Housebreaking Puppies

The next day saw Ben pulling out all of his best techniques for housebreaking puppies, since he knew that Mom was becoming less puppy-optimistic after washing my sheets from the night before. His attempts to give Prince large quantities of water and his terse commands: “Potty! Now!” in the backyard would normally have been enough to send me into hysteria had I not known what was at stake. Ben wouldn’t admit that he knew absolutely nothing about housebreaking puppies, but by the end of the day we knew we were sunk.

The Battle of Housebreaking Puppies

Later that week, however, in the fray of our losing puppy housebreaking battle, Dad brought home what proved to be the answer for housebreaking puppies: the Doggie Divot! Noting the new patch of grass in our bathroom, Prince took a few inquisitive sniffs and promptly went to town as if the two had known each other his entire puppy life. Now Prince and I are happily friends again and we have Doggie Divot to thank for its expertise in housebreaking puppies.
