I have wanted a dog for many years and now being in a position to have one we picked up our 8 week puppy a couple of days ago. However, despite doing all my research, loads of reading and watching youtube I think I have been sooo naïve and wonder whether this has been a mistake. Puppy is weeing everywhere despite going out a least once an hour and rewarding when going outside, biting feet and jumping up despite lots of chew toys. Crate training also not going well as has pooed in cage both nights, there is a divider in the cage.
DH tells me not to worry as still very early days but I have read of people crate/house training within 24 hours and worry that I am doing it all wrong but I am a worrywort all the time. Some reassurance needed from other puppy people!
