Training Your Scotty, Housebreaking[Index] [Puppies] [Housebreaking] [Paper Training] [Obedience] [Keywords] [Walking] [Behaviour] [Toys] Your puppy will try to please you at all times, this can be a very trying period for both you and your Scotty. You must be patient and very understanding. Once you have established your training system stick to it. Your puppy must be able to go outside frequently and given the chance to defecate before you bring him back in again. When he is inside you need to keep a close eye on him, and be able to react quickly if you see he needs to go again. If you cannot keep an eye on him at all times, then you need to keep your puppy in a comfortable location. I personally do not like the use of crate's that are being use incorrectly to confine Scotty's for long periods of time. Far better to put a warm cosy bed in the kitchen, until you are able to supervise his activities again. When you do use a crate it has to be big enough so your Scotty can stand up and be able to turn around with ease. The use of a crate should always be for less than 2 hours at a time, "Never" leave your Scotty in a crate all day while you are at work, this is very unkind. If you are doing this, think seriously about finding a better home for him. If crates are used correctly your Scotty may regard it as his "Den" and a designated space of his own. Use incorrectly they bring fear and destroy the training process along with the trust he puts in you.
