giomanach,

Your house have any small place dry area for dog. Dog don't like wet floor for potty and pee. Here the basic and just my experience for potty training. You can ask any question, this forum member will help you. Someone please put out your hand for this new puppy with new home. Wishing good luck.

Potty Training
To teach the dog where to relieve herself. at first you need clean up the smell where they potty/pee before,need do 100% clean up.

1.when find up he/she want potty or pee,bring they on news paper area at floor.make ready 6 news paper at floor. they will do smelling find the place. the best way try get one pee with news paper put at 6 news paper there.

2.never let they make single mistake.

3.let they know where you want they to go and...

4.reward they for doing so. "goooood boy/girl."

5.remember each hour hurry the dog to the intended toilet area or dry area with news paper.(go pee! or Go poop). Praise and offer a couple of traning treats when successful.

6.the potty training need about 3-4 month for successful.

7.If fail for potty training might facing many problem,they do pee and poop everywhere,the pee stink is hard to erase,you cannot bring they to friends house or restaurant.

my dog rocky need 2 month for seccessful ,and ricky have follow rocky did, he done well less then 2 month.

andyfriends and giomanach,
The most powerful of these is knowledge,Dog education is the key! participate in training, watch education DVD, read books and magazines, enjoy- training with your dog and then dog will say "please and Thanks you"
pee and poop in its cage? it might hard for clean up,it dirty and bad smell. I dont think it is good idea. Maybe is space concern or other else. Remember your dog is buddy always.
