We got a new puppy really cute but hard to train. He pees everywhere. Whenever he wants while he is walking, sitting when he goes out when ge dosnt go out. U must watch this dog at all times he bites my one year old takes his food runs him over chews up his toys. Chases my 9 year old bites her rips holes in her clothes. Takes food off table. I have never had sooooo much trouble with a puppy in my life. PLEASE HELP ME!!!! We have a 2 year old female and decided to get male. He is now 4 and half months. Awful little thing but cute as a button. Beginning to hate him. Sometimes i dont get all emails from this sight so my email address is daniellekregear@hotmail.com .
You need to get control over the pup, which you already know. First, when in the house you need to confine the dog to the same area where you are so you can correct behaviour. If you can't be with the dog he needs to be in his crate. As far as peeing, after they, play or have been asleep, or every couple of hours they have to go out. Anticipating your dogs needs will help with the potty training. Praise him when he goes outside. If he has an accident inside grab him and put him out, do not scold him. If you have to, keep him leashed to you while inside.
Also, lots of exercise. Sounds like he may not be getting enough.
For biting grab him gently under the chin and press down on him tongue with you thumb. He will soon learn biting is a no no.
If you aren't training him in obedience start. Enter him and you in a class. This will teach him manners and engage his brain, both of which should help.
Finally remember he is a puppy. Some puppies are more rambunctuous than others. Stay persistent and consistent.
Good Luck!!
