welcome to the club of puppyhood :D grats on your puppy and good luck to you. there are lots of post regarding potty training. should read up on them and avoid the mistakes that others have gone through. Usually 1) Be ahead of the game = predict when ur pup is going to pee poo. usually when he wakes up, after food, about 1 hour after the last time he went to toilet. that would be roughly your indicator. 2) don't scold him for his mistakes. when he does let him finish it. don't rush him to his toilet, it's not much of a use, and you might confuse him. to him he might think, oh if i peepoo here, my master will come and hug (even if ur just carrying) me and play with me(moving him to another spot). let him finish, move him out of sight then clean the mess, don't let him see u doing so. 3) when he does it right, praise, praise and praise him. Make a big deal out of it. give lots of pats, hugs or even treats. Make a BIG deal of it! 4) don't push his nose into his stool and pee. he'll learn to be scared of you when he needs to pee or poo and might even start doing his business in places you will not find because he's afraid you'll push his face into pee or poo. 5) the more time u spend making sure he does it right, the faster he learns. the more time u spend correcting him, the longer he'll learn where is the right place. do it right the first time good luck
