Bringing home a new puppy is exciting, but potty training can feel overwhelming. The good news: with the right approach, most puppies can be reliably trained in just 7 days.
Day 1-2: Establish a Routine
Take your puppy outside every 2 hours, immediately after meals, naps and play sessions. Use a consistent spot and the same command each time.
Day 3-4: Watch for Signs
Learn your puppy signals: sniffing the floor, circling, squatting or suddenly stopping play. When you see these signs, immediately take them outside.
Day 5-6: Reduce Accidents
Confine your puppy to a small area when unsupervised. Use puppy training pads near the door as a backup. Our Super Absorbent Puppy Training Pads are perfect for this stage.
Day 7: Celebrate Progress!
By day 7, most puppies understand the routine. Accidents will still happen but should be rare. Always reward with treats and praise immediately after they go in the right spot.
Pro Tips
- Never punish accidents — just clean up and move on
- Use enzymatic cleaner to eliminate odors that attract repeat accidents
- Keep a consistent feeding schedule to predict bathroom times
