Bringing a new dog home will bring in new routines and schedules which are very important and will help to reinforce what is expected of him.

You are also going to want to dog-proof your house, remember dogs love to chew on things, so ifthere is anything you do not want chewed on, you should put them away or off of the ground so he can not get tothem.

When your new dog comes home for the first time, put him on a leash and let him get used to thesmells of the grass to take a pee.

Select a certain place on the grass and train the dog to use only  that spot when he needs togo. Patience is important; it may take up to 15 minutes for him to do it but when he does, make sure you give himplenty of praise so he will continue to use that spot only.

Your next step is to take the dog inside the house while on the leash, walk around with him untilhe attempts to go take a pee. If and when he does lift his leg, yank on the leash and release it right away whilegiving him a very stern "NO".

Take him immediately outside and let him go on the designated area. As soon as he has relievedhimself in the correct place, reward him with a treat.

It is exciting for everyone when you bring a new dog home, including the dog. Take intoconsideration that the dog will be a little nervous which may result in accidents, drinking more than normal,chewing on things and having an upset stomach.

These are all very normal occurrences with new puppies. You will also want to remember that maledogs will be more likely to mark their territory, more so if you have other pets in the house.

You will want to let everyone know that while you understand they are excited about the new dog, healso needs time to adapt to being in such a new environment and it can be easy to overwhelm him.

Let him get settled in, before you introduce him to lots of new people and changes. Do notautomatically assume the dog is not house broken if he has an accident the first few days in your home.

The excitement of a new place and new people can and will cause him to lose bladder control. Maledogs will also be marking their territory when they first become a part of your home. After a week or so you canbegin to teach him what is expected of him.
