Pepsi pooped outside!! 🎉🙌🏻💩This is cause for celebration because housetraining can be especially challenging in an urban environment. Most pups arrive from suburban or rural areas, so not only do the pups have to learn to ‘go’ on an unfamiliar substrate (i.e. concrete), but they have to potty with the distraction of endless noises, and dogs and people passing by.A 🔑 to success is diligent management so you can best predict when a pup will need to potty. A crate, on-leash supervision and tethering, and a food/water/training and play schedule are at the core of good puppy management.When you take a pup out, plan to do so in the first week only when you are confident they REALLY need to ‘go.’ Pick a spot about ten feet wide and slowly walk back and forth. DO NOT say “go potty.” This will just distract a pup (they’ll look up at you) from the task at hand...sniffing to potty.If they don’t potty in 5-10 mins, pick ‘em up, go back in, hold them on your lap, and try again in 15-20 mins.The first few days of this routine can feel a little grueling. But, well worth it when you realize you have a prompt pottier (a pup that doesn’t need to be walked around the block ten times to find the perfect spot), especially on a rainy and/or cold night!

If you can guess Luna’s breed correctly, we’ll be mighty impressed. From this pic you might think she’s sad or shy. Nope. In fact, Luna came into her first play group at 10wks of age like a lil’ firecracker 🧨! 😂 She’s 💯 on the cute and confident scale! Don’t judge a 📖 by its cover. 😜

Lulu & Sullivan’s peeps dropped them off for their first play group and were understandably anxious. Will they be scared? Will they make friends? Well, these two 10-week-old puppers hit the ground running, literally and figuratively. They were basically the uber confident, I’m gonna chase you across the room and tackle you, oh so cute Queen and King of the puppy play group prom. 👑💖😂 @_luluthelemon
