Potty Training Your Puppy

Question
Oh, I forgot to mention, we've had her for 3 days and she fetches and drops, knows her name, comes to snapping our fingers reliably even when she's busy romping something and is mostly leash trained. Now if only the previous owners dogs hadn't marked the middle of the living room. Hard to blame her for that but he had 3 dogs who had problems with the same spot. We just have to keep taking her outside every 2 hours without fail to keep her from having accidents.
My Answer
I really don’t know the correct way to remove 'stubborn' spots. I know there are things like the foggers for kennels and the chemicals but never had anything to do with it.

HOUSEBREAKING YOUR DOG

A simple matter of repetition is needed to house break your dog. After they eat take them out and reward them with praise when the go to the bathroom. I typically start my day by taking my dogs out and 5 minutes might pass but the results are there. I then take them back in and go to work on weekdays and come home at noon and let them out. After a good romp I let them back in and do the same at 4 and 7pm. With a schedule you can house break your dog in a day or two. Of course some dogs are worse than others but its not as hard as people lead it to be.

Website Updates

I typically change or add things daily to our website www.dogwoodtrailskennel.com daily to keep everyone informed. When a puppy is sold it will have a sold notice by price or removed entirely.
I have almost completed all the information regarding Cavaliers in the "Cavaliers" page so you can view everything about the breed.
I will hopefully have the Japanese Chin information available soon. At the moment the general info can be checked easily by going to ACK.org or any other reputable website.

All of my information is also backed up by others and I will have a bibliography up also.

Shipping Puppies

We are now preferring ground shipping. The transport service was started by vets and there is a person with them 24/7 with medical training. They leave Mountain Grove, MO 65711 on Mondays and drive in whatever is the fastest route with the puppies that are on board. They will drive to you or at the most 30 minutes drive time away such as an interstate .
Keep it in mind when buying we will still ship by air. We ship by air on Thursdays because it is much easier than trying for the busy days which they can get bumped from.

Cavalier Puppies

We just had a litter of Cavalier Spaniels and they all have great markings. They will be registered AKC and have all the normal guarantee and all the extras. Keep an eye out for pictures.
