Puppies are a bundle of joy especially during their first month. During this time, you would notice how cute they are with their small bodies covered in thick, furry coats.
However, the fun ends as soon as your puppies start peeing and pooping wherever they want to. This is surely a problem that every dog owner encounters, but there are ways to cope with it.
A puppy is just a puppy, and although hard to take care of, it cannot even compare to the challenge you face when taking care of a bunch of puppies. Just multiply everything you have to deal with by two or three or four.
To try and lessen the damage to your house, and at least make sure it doesn’t stink, you need to stay on top of the situation and be aware of what needs doing. It is very important to maintain disciplined at all times.
A great idea is to designate a room for just the puppies, and only the puppies. This could be a spare bedroom or laundry room - just make sure you take everything out and cover the floor with newspaper. This will ensure you only have one area to clean up, and that the whole house doesn’t get destroyed.
Don’t forget that with little puppies, they are going to pass everything through within minutes. Once they have eaten or drunk, you should move them through to where you want them to do their business. It won’t be long before they are going to the toilet and we all know puppies don’t mind the spot.
At least there are no mysteries when it comes to this, it is an obvious part of the puppies system. Make sure you control when and where they are feed so you can control the flow at the other end.
Although raising a herd of crazy puppies can be challenging, and take quite a bit of patience, it’s important not to give up. Your frustrations will vanish when they stare at you with those big beautiful puppy eyes. Then, and only then, you will realize it was worth it.
