I also should have added that it isn't safe to let a puppy free when you are not there to keep a close eye on him. To many things that they can get into, like chewing electric cords, getting into cabinets and eating chemicals and what ever else is around the house are all dangerous for an unmonitor

Hi Well 3 months is a very young puppy and most are not totally housebroken that young. You can choose to block him in a large area, making sure the pads are far from his bed and feeding area and still give him enough room to romp around. Some people buy the puppy playpens, or you can just set up

At 13 weeks, he should not have the run of the house. You need to get an x pen for him, that will hold his bed on one end and pee pads on the other end (use a pad onto which you have sopped up some of his pee, so he can smell it and know that's where to go). Keep him in there while you're g

Peanut butter is his least favorite, however, he will eat it on a tiny piece of bread and spit out the pill. Some times he will swallow and walk away, then when across the room, out comes the pill. I have to watch him closely. Gloria -Original Message- From: Nancy To: Chihuahuas
