Puppy Training Book Review

Puppy Training Book Review



I have to admit, I'm an info junkie. I browse the Internet and my local book stores looking for books on Pomeranian puppy training, dog training in general or about other types of Pets I'd like to own one day (such as a Parot).

This happened over the last weekend when I purchased the eBook, "How To House Train Any Dog". Even though I do most of my own Pomeranian puppy training, I love to read about them.

Over the years I've bought a number of these ebooks. I have to say that most of them have been worth the money because I've always came away with information that either I did not know or had forgotten a long time ago!

I was not dissapointed with "How To House Train Any Dog". I learned 2 tricks in this ebook that I had not tried before when training pomeranian puppies. I also liked that the author has a 100% satisfaction guarantee- that says something about the Author!

See, even old dogs like myself can learn a new trick every now and then..lol

I wrote about the basics of house breaking/training Pomeranian puppies in my post below, but this book has several great ideas that will cut the time to house break considerably. I've started using several of the ideas on my little guy "Samson". (that's Sampson in the upper right)

My niece is moving into her own place next month. She called and wanted to get a house dog and asked me for my advice....of course I told her to get a Pomeranian puppy! I'm also going to buy another copy of "How To House Train Any Dog" and send her! (because I know she'll be calling me with a hundred or more questions...lol

Check it out for yourself, especially if you have a new Pomeranian puppy or a dog you're wanting to house train.

Housebreaking Your Pomeranian Puppy

Housebreaking Your Pomeranian Puppy

Housebreaking your Pomeranian puppy is not the most glamorous job in the world. However, doing it will create bonds with your new Pomeranian puppy. It will teach you patience and leave you with a better understanding of what your puppy wants once he has learned. It will also teach him what is acceptable and what is not.

You have to remember all puppies, including Pomeranians, have a short attention span. This requires repetition. Repetition and reward training will get you the best results the quickest. Never scream or hit your Pomeranian puppy!

The old wives tale about rubbing their noses in their mess is just that, an old wives tale, don’t do it! Just like children, your Pomeranian puppy does not wake up in the morning trying to determine what kind of trouble they want to get into.


Start housebreaking your Pomeranian puppy with routine feedings. The easiest way is to start feeding him when you have meals. About 30 minutes after feeding, take your Pomeranian puppy outside and watch them. You’ll soon learn their body behavior when they need to go. Any left over food should be removed. Never let your Pomeranian puppy eat at will.

If you Pomeranian puppy has an accident, just go ahead and take them outside immediately. Give them lots of praise and attention even if they have an accident. Housebreaking takes time. Some experts say that a puppy does not have full control of their bladder and digestive systems until they are 15-18 weeks old.

It’s important that you buy a floor/carpet cleaner designed for pets. Most other cleaners have ammonia in them. Ammonia is a by-product of urine. When you Pomeranian puppy smells ammonia, it’s telling him it’s okay to urinate all over the floor! Dogs have an instinct to “mark their territories” when they smell other urine, so unless you want your Pomeranian puppy marking your whole house, use a cleaner designed for pets!
Housebreaking your Pomeranian isn’t near has hard as some would have you think. It just takes time and love!

Good luck in Housebreaking Your Pomeranian Puppy
