Housebreaking is an important part of training your puppy. It's best to start with the basics by teaching your pup to eliminate in designated areas outside. When you take your puppy out for potty breaks, make sure they are taken on grass or other soft surfaces so that they can't dig. You should also provide them with plenty of toys to keep their mind occupied while you're away from home. Additionally, it's important to establish regular potty times each day, and reward them when they do their business correctly. Finally, be consistent and patient with your pup as they learn.
