Potty Training
Start by establishing a routine for feeding and bathroom breaks. Use positive reinforcement and consistency to encourage desired behavior. Supervise your puppy closely and take them outside frequently, especially after meals and naps. Clean up accidents without scolding and consider crate training for when you can't supervise.
Obedience Training
Focus on basic commands like sit, stay, and come. Use positive reinforcement such as treats and praise. Keep training sessions short and frequent to maintain your puppy's attention. Consider enrolling in a puppy training class for professional guidance.
Socialization
Expose your puppy to various environments, people, and other animals from a young age. Encourage positive interactions and monitor their behavior closely. Gradually increase the level of exposure as your puppy becomes more comfortable. Seek out puppy socialization classes or playdates to help them develop good social skills.
