"Is It Really Possible To Housebreak a Puppy In 5 Days?"

2011-02-28T07:56:00.001-08:00

It happened!

I wasn't watching her and she peed all over my Berber carpet… And with a small puppy you're not going to see it until it's already happened… To say the least- I was upset.

I smiled on the outside as I picked her up and took her outside… but inside I was fuming.

I knew I needed help but wasn't sure where to look. Wasn’t this puppy housebreaking supposed to come natural?

I guess not.

As a last ditch effort, I went looking for the best information I could find. I needed more than just 'free tips'. Who could help me stop this before it got out of hand?

I’d read a shocking statistic that the #1 reason a puppy ends up in a shelter was because of housebreaking problems. I didn’t want Sally to become a part of that frightening statistic.

But I am ashamed to say that I was quite frustrated and was about to take her to the pound after only two or three weeks of having her.

At the time, she wasn't the bundle of joy I'd fantasized about.

I wasn't sure whether I was supposed to housebreak her by crate, paper train her, use a pad, or go outside. I was clueless… which caused Sally to be clueless. So I went online searching 'housebreaking a puppy.'

The first ad I saw was titled 'Housebreaking a Puppy in 5 Days'…

That had ME written all over it. So I clicked…

The first thing that hit me was the similarities between the couple's story and mine. I don't know about you but I like having a face behind a website. The second thing I noticed quickly- ALL the success stories.

Puppy lovers just like me, who almost had given up, thanking Trey for helping them transform their puppy… some literally overnight.

After getting their system, I was literally blown away. This was not just a course on how to housebreak puppies as the title would have us believe. It is the most complete puppy training tutorial I've ever seen. You're shown how to use the puppy's natural behavior… Finally, I know the importance of beating the bad habits *before* they sink in.

Doing it right the first time.

Implementing these tactics had my puppy housetrained in 5 days!

Some courses tell you to - figuratively speaking - go boil a pot of water. This course assumes nothing. Trey tells you what a pot is, where the kitchen is, what water is, how to put the water in the pot, then put it on the stove, how to turn on the stove and when to turn it off. That's the kind of attention to detail we're talking about here.

The focus of the course is training your puppy, specifically BEFORE bad habits are molded… and then he gives you step-by-step instructions to housebreaking puppies… and finally he gives some controversial information that goes against the grain of most of today's trainers…

There's a chapter for everything. And it's very well done.

When you complete this system, you'll be able to enjoy your dog again… It worked for me and I love my Sally again. Trust me- I couldn't say that two weeks ago.

The only downside of this system are the production values. Compared to the some of the slick and professionally polished tutorials that are out there, the How To Housebreak My Puppy course is real meat 'n potatoes kind of stuff.

Trey is not a poet… but an expert in puppy training. He often lets that show through. But I didn't want a War And Peace Novel- I wanted help - fast.

But you know what? He's human, and that's exactly the sense you get when you're reading this course. It's just like being in a live classroom where stuff happens and the teacher needs to adapt. Although it's a little quirky at first, you easily get used to it and it's almost like having Trey sitting beside you, guiding you through every step of the process.

If you're prepared to put in a little time to learn, this system will blow you away. You can pay more expensive prices but don't judge the content by the cover… I honestly think he'll wise up soon and increase his prices to match his competitors… but until he does- get it.

I'm glad someone who knew what they were talking about helped us new 'parents'… The thought of giving Sally back was something I didn't want to face.

To quote Benjamin Franklin, "If a man empties his purse into his head, no one can take it away from him. An investment of knowledge always pays the best interest."

This course - my friend - is a heck of an investment and money well spent. Empty this information into your mind and you're never likely to go to regret the day you bought your dog.

Our grand kid (Dora)

2011-02-27T20:41:00.000-08:00

It's been more than two months since Coco had her second & last litter. Seven little souls were introduced to life and they were all so cute in many different ways. For the past two months or so taking care of them, watching them grew so fast and learned new stuffs as they got older was lovely. I remember when Coco was having her first litter (4 boys & 1 girl) it was a bit overwhelming because Cindy & I were inexperience at the time. This time we are more prepared so the two months were more forgiving...if you know what i meant.

As of last Friday, we'd found six good homes to the pups and we decided to keep the remaining one with us. She's a little naughty girl that we used to nicknamed her "Liu Lo" (comparing her to the little bird singing) because she will be playing and explore new things most of the time. So now that she's staying with us, we decided to give her a proper name ...Dora. While I'm typing this blog, Casper is playing with Dora downstairs, so you can tell how busy is our home right now. Can you imagine having three dogs? One naughty puppy, one 3yrs old kid & and 8yrs old cougar that still playful?? :) Oh well, I'm going to end here and post some pics so that I can go and join the fun.

Little Dipper's story

2011-02-27T19:37:00.000-08:00

It was a mild winter day in March when Heather & her three kids came to visit us to look at the pups in the afternoon. When her kids arrived they immediately found a connection between them and Dipper. One of the bigger boys among the pack from Coco & Casper's litter (March 2009). It's been almost two years since...and recently we have received a few updates from her. It's great to see how much Dipper has grown up to. He actually looks more like Coco but has Casper's size, so I think it's a pretty good mix. :)

Dipper has the same sleeping style as with his brother Sauga, I think they both got this from their dad, Casper.

This pic looks so much like his mom, Coco.

I can see Dipper & the cat get along quite well

A story about Sauga

2011-02-27T19:15:00.000-08:00

Sauga is one of the boys from Coco & Casper's first litter back in March, 2009. He was among one of the most lucky puppies to be adopted by their owners. Thanks to Mr. & Mrs Dan & Nancy Skubel and their son, Sauga has been blessed with their love and care for the past two years. So I have collected a few pictures of Sauga to share with you all.

By the way, we were living in Mississauga when Coco had her first litter, it was a small apartment but that's where so many great little hearts were brought to life. That's also the reason why his name is "Sauga".

This is the little Sauga you saw from above.

Note: Our lives have been blessed with Coco & Casper, and now we added Dora (Coco's daughter from her second & last litter). It's great to learn that Coco & Casper's puppies are now grown adults and are giving the joy & companions to their owners as well, and I'd like to thank the Skubel family to keep us updated with Sauga's well being. Wishing you and your family all the best! :)

Now into their 9th week, the three remaining pups with us are improving on their paper training from two spots merged into one single location. They're starting to learn a lot from their parents...from greeting us with their waging tails whenever we get home to trying to get their potty done outside of the house. And today, it's nice and warm outside for a Feb. winter so I decided to let them out in the backyard along side with Coco & Casper. The pups enjoyed running & playing with Casper as he was trying to teach them how to play with the fresh snow. Casper loves to make a butterfly whenever there are plenty of fresh snow.

It's into the 9th week, 1st vet visit with the shots & dewormed. As of today, 2 boys & 1 girl had left us to their new homes. Below are images of the remaining boy & his three other sisters. Wishing they'd stay little like this so that I can keep them all with us. :)

Feb. 3, 2011 - Got a bit emotional to send Polo (the naughty boy) to his new home. It's sad to let him go, but happy in a way because we have found a good home for him.

After the first pup was born we eagerly anticipated the birth of the next. Hours had passed but no pups followed. We checked with the vet and everything seemed normal, however things had turned for the worst. A C-Section was needed to salvage the six remaining pups. Miraculously all the pups along with Coco were alive and well!

Close to due date

1 day before labour

1st pup came out @6:30pm (Dec. 11, 2010)
