subject: How to Train a Puggle [print this page] The first few weeks after you bring your puggle home will be either encouraging or disappointing depending on your tolerance power and persistence. There may come such moments when you will think if it was good idea that you bring a puggle or not. Things can change if you keep patience and enjoy the funny acts of your puggle in the puppyhood. Puppyhood happens only once and the extra effort you put into it will determine the kind of dog it will become in the future.
Feeding
A puppy may eat whatever it wants and go potty all the time. To prevent this, feed it three times a day until 3 months and two times after that.
Crates
A crate is the modern edition of a den. Just like we enjoy sleeping and spending time in our own room, they also feel comfortable in their own crates. The advantage of using crates is:
1. It will make them feel safe and secure
2. Training will be lot easier
3. Housebreaking goes much faster
4. Travelling becomes safer and easier
Use a schedule
The best way to know how to train a puggle is making a schedule or a routine. With a proper and practical schedule of puppy's exercise and playtimes, housebreaking will be also easier. When you know the timings of your dog's activities, it will be automatically easy for you to manage the things.
Socializing
Inconsistent rule doesn't work. So be consistent in your rules while socializing your puggle. If you don't expect your puggle to jump on you while you are going to the office in a clean uniform, then don't let it jump on you when you are staying home in the holidays. A dog is always innocent. It needs guidance and training to learn what is good and what is bad. It may bark at strangers or seeing unusual things. For this, exposing it to new situations, environments, animals and peoples is necessary. It barks because it may have not seen such things before. So, exposing it the outside world can turn it to more civilized, obedient and social dog.
