What are some good ways to house-train my Pekingese puppy and to stop him from biting people?
Posted by Puppy Trainer on April 24th, 2009 filed in Puppy Training
I have puppy training sheets all over the house but he always seems to miss them. I let him out for awhile, then when I let him back in he goes to the bathroom.
On the biting, hes playing when he bites. His bites leave marks and sometimes he draws blood.

a product called apple bitter… it’s avaiable at pet stores. it has a bitter taste, but in no way is harmful. Each time your puppy bites put some on its tongue - or spray it on items you want to deter him from biting/chewing on.
As far as training - there are special pads or you can use newspaper. Put this by the door you let him out when he goes to the bathroom… gradually move the news paper outside the door, then to the lawn, then get rid of it completely. If your puppy goes on the carpet - you have to get a product that will break up the enzymes otherwise - even though you cant smell it, you dog still can and will continue to go in the same spot.

Well you could take a pillow from your house and you put it on the ground but, when your puppy is getting ready to go, you pull it up and Wham, your dog is using the potty.

Summary Tips on Biting
Just a few tips:
1. Reprimand alone will never stop biting.
2. If no respect exists, the biting will get worse. If you act like a littermate, the dog will treat you as one.
3. If trust is not there, the dog may eventually bite out of fear or lack or confidence.
4. Inconsistency sabotages training. If you let the dog bite some of the time, then biting will never be completely eliminated.
5. Don’t forget follow up. The dog must understand that it is the biting that you don’t like, not the dog itself. Make up afterwards, but on your terms, not the dog’s.
Most owners wait until a bite just “happens to occur” before trying to deal with it and are therefore totally unprepared when it happens - and do all the wrong things, thus making the problem worse. If your dog already has a biting problem you might want to order the book “Help! My Dog Has an Attitude.”

Dogs are what you call the “wandering animal” they wander for food, they wander for a place to go to the bathroom. I would give the advice that if he is going to the bathroom when you return from outside, you haven’t walked him long enough. So keep him out longer, also you can train with poddy pads though keep only two or three together and near the door. Don’t EVER hit the puppy after the fact and never hit with your hand a newspaper when the issue occurs.
As far as biting is concerned you must say NO loudly.. sounds strange but dogs are pack animals and biting is sometimes a show of affection,,, so show him or her your the LEADER of their pack and say NO and grab the back of his or her neck (the scruff)

the first thing to remember about house training a puppy is there ability to hold themselves is limited. a rule of thumb is they can hold “it” usually 1 hour for each month of age. 2 months old = 2 hours, 3 months old = 3 hours, etc. when your puppy wakes up (morning, nap, whatever) the pup has to go, right then! take the pup out. when the pup eats or drinks, it has to go, take the pup out. after exercise (play), take the pup out. when the pup does it’s thing outside praise it. a lot. tell the pup how good, how smart it is. you have to pay attention to the pups “looking for it’s spot” behavior. when you see that behavior indoors, whisk the pup out. if you catch the pup in the act, simply tell it “NO!” and whisk it outside. if you find a puddle or pile after the fact, clean it up with an enzyme cleaner (pet food store) get a newspaper and hit…. yourself in the head and say “i should have been paying more attention” daytime training they get pretty fast. night time training is easier if you crate train the pup. also remember the one hour/one month rule. you will have to get up through the night to take the pup out. good luck.
three websites on how to crate train a puppy
Stop your puppy from biting
It is relatively easy to teach your puppy not to do this. In fact, most puppies simply grow out of this behavior altogether. Remember, they are teething when they are young, so chewing feels good! Give lots of toys with different textures to help get their chewing needs appropriately.
1. Never reinforce the behavior
This means you must remove your attention every time this happens. Attention to a dog includes eye contact. With kids its best to tell them to cross their arms and stare at the ceiling. 30 seconds is about the time you should ignore your puppy. Don’t push your puppy away as this can become a game quickly.
2. Try yelping like a puppy
Yelping in many cases will communicate exactly what you want - that it hurts when your puppy does that. That in combination with removing your attention will likely get rid of the mouthing problem. Of course some puppies will become excited by this yelp and bite harder - if that happens, don’t use this method.
3. What if those don’t work
You can use a little lemon juice or bitter apple on your hands.
4. Teach him something else to do
Teach your dog to lick on the cue “no bite”. Put a treat in your hand. When your puppy licks, give him the treat and say “no bite”. He’ll learn this fast

If I were you, I’d thump him on the back of his head when he bites, and everytime he bites. If you don’t, he may think his biting is funny, and it could become a habit.

My heels throw toy and toys with him back at all times of age size and put the water intake to provide highquality food is.
For all dogs that he bites more they will enter your new puppy he can say no bite then proceed to associate these words with few days and run around all times turn my back in your pup may start sniffing stopping and going for example have already learned that way hes played for leaving it etc when to how and getting consistent positive reinforcement for five minutes only it.

The place you have him on feedwater schedule after drinking water take him to the crate get him on the biting goes when he doesnt put him to eliminate and say no all timeson short leash correction short leash then give.
The way to eliminate and wait until he will need to be supervised at all the crate get him on crate wait until he does then lots of praise if he doesnt put him back in the place you want him back in the place you have him.
