Puppies at 4 weeks old
These pictures were taken first thing in the morning. The pups are 4 weeks old. EVERY poop this morning was on the paper. Pretty impressive. I am still having the odd pee , where it shouldn't be, but most of the pee is on the paper where it should be. These puppies are only 27 days old, one day short of 4 weeks. Using the Misty Method of potty training pups while still at the breeder not only makes it easier for the breeder to keep the puppy area clean, it gives the pups a good head start on potty training. Pups will not be 100% house trained when they leave the breeder, however, they will have the basic concept and will be easier to train, as they already know, there is a certain place to do your business, you do not eliminate wherever you please.
_________________________ Pups 4.5 weeks
At 4.5 weeks the pups whelping box is changed from solely paper to paper with wood shavings. The shavings coat the poop and absorbs the pee, so it doesn't get tracked around. You cannot do this with toy dogs, but large breeds it works great.
_________________________ Pups at 4.5 weeks go outside to play
Since these pups are being raised with the Misty Method of potty training, they are able to be placed in areas with a nice carpet, food area and a potty station. Notice the potty station at the far end of the puppy pen. The pups will use this to do their business. Pups that were not raised using the Misty Method would pee and poop all over this pen, soiling the carpet. These pups have learned at a young age, the carpet is not the place to do their business. Not only is it easier on the breeder as far as clean up, the new owners of these pups will have an easier time housebreaking their new puppy. These pups were bred by Misty Trails Mastiffs.
Putting a rock in the water bowl to weigh it down, prevents large breed dogs from tipping the water bowl over.
The pups now have teeth and some dry kibble has been placed on the rubber matt for them to munch on.
