The Pomeranian is a cute and courageous animal that will win your heart not only because of its affectionate and adorable nature, but because it is a great watch dog as well and despite its small size, it is not going to back down when confronted with danger. However, it is not so easily housebroken and Pomeranian potty training is something for which you need plenty of patience and also a great deal of perseverance, especially in the first few weeks when a new puppy comes into your home.

Thus, there is a great need to first of all get it to learn where to go. In order to get started with Pomeranian potty training it will help to give it its own playpen where it can be fed and given water as well as allowed to sleep in a comfortable bed. Then, whenever your Pom wakes up in the morning it should be taken out and shown where to eliminate. Still, you also need to know how to handle accidents when they occur, as this is a good time in Pomeranian training to exercise patience and perseverance with the potty training. In any case, you should not strike him or rub his nose in the mess as that will only make him fearful and not properly potty trained. There is a lot more to Pomeranian training than taking it out to where it should go, because good potty training will also require you to clean up after it and when doing so to ensure that you clean up all traces of the accident so that no trace of it lingers. In fact, there are also some products available on the market that smell just like urine and by placing these where you want your Pomeranian to go. You will get good results because your pet will readily associate the smell with having to go potty. Another useful tip as far as Pomeranian potty training goes is that when you catch your Pomeranian doing his potty where he shouldn’t remember to clap your hands loudly and to also say no forcefully and loudly, after which you can pick him up and take him outside. The effect of your voice should awaken him to what he is doing wrong and also make him stop, and once he is taken outside, he can complete his business once more.Once he does that, you should praise him and even give him a reward. There is not much to Pomeranian potty training if you address it in the proper manner ensuring that your pet pick it up quickly. However, remember that if you catch your pet having an accident and more than a few seconds have passed since the act, there will be no sense in punishing it because pups can only understand what has just taken place. Accidents will happen and whether you catch it defecating or find out later, you should never rub its nose in the dirt or use physical reprimands, since the end result will be to make it fearful rather than properly potty trained. What is important is that Pomeranian potty training means being successful in getting your pet to associate a place or places (preferably outside the home) where it should do his potty. It is through positive reinforcement that the best results will come about making a happy and harmonious home for both you and your pet.
