What To Do in Each Stage When Planning Puppy Training schedule

First thing crate training (At age 2-3 months)

The puppy crate is the puppy safe and secure den. A lot of people call the puppy crate as a "doggie jail." Remember that this is wrong and not the way the puppy will see his crate. Maybe at the beginning, he might be a little upset to have his space limited, but it won't take a lot of time until he starts going into his crate on his own.

When your puppy will get used to his crate, it will be much easier to take him for trips in the car, or to the vet.

Puppy Housebreaking Training (At ages 2-3 months)

At the age 2-3 months, your puppy won’t have control of their bladder. There are breeds that will learn to control their bladder in a few months and for some, it might take even longer. This is why housebreaking training should begin from day one, the minute you bring your puppy home. If you establish the right patterns at the beginning your puppy will learn to control his bladder as fast as possible.

There are different methods to housebreaking training, using a crate, an ex-pen, a doggy door leading to a small yard, or a litter box.

Learning That You Are the Pack Leader (At ages 2-3 months)

Your puppy must understand that you are the pack leader in your family. All the decisions are made by you, what is O.K and what isn't. Clipping nails, grooming, and giving medicine, putting on a collar and more. You have to decide what is necessary and what O.K.

Nipping and Biting (At ages 2-3 months)

A lot of puppies that were taken from their mothers in a young age (younger than 7 weeks) tend to play more roughly. Your job is to take over from where his mother left off and start teaching your puppy how to act and to learn to restrain himself.

Remember, you must be the one that sets the limits for all the behaviors good or bad.

Your Household rules (At ages 2-3 months)

You need to start from the first day and teach your puppy which behaviors are acceptable in your house and which behaviors aren't. Is he allowed to play with the toilet paper? To get on the furniture? Is he allowed in the kitchen when you are eating? Is he allowed to eat you’re the newspaper? Can he steal socks from the laundry basket? Is it OK to sleep on your bed with you?

You need to decide on the household rules! You need to be completely consistent about what you have decided. There is no need in any special command "No!" and "Good!" will serve you well enough, but only if you have taught those words properly.

Most of the people think a training schedule would be much harder for an older puppy....but it isn't. It doesn’t matter if your puppy is 3 months old, 6 months old, or 9 months old, it’s always the order of training.
It might be a bit more difficult to train him but if you keep working and doing the routines, taking control and training the puppy as you needed it won’t take long until the puppy is well trained.

Remember house training a puppy takes a lot of time, it’s not an easy task but it’s very important, if you train your puppy right you will have a well-behaved older dog that will be easy to handle but if not, you will end up with a big fluffy 40 kg beast around the house that not listening to you and does whatever he wants.
