Training - Choose a potty-training method

Choose a potty-training method. There are plentiful housebreaking supplies on the market. Dog crates provide the benefit of controlling a puppy's environment and are an effective method for quick housebreaking results. Additionally, utilize pretreated potty-training trays or pads in the home, if the pug puppy soils frequently in the house.

Training - Practice effective pack leadership

Practice effective pack leadership. Pugs are a sensitive breed, vulnerable to the tone of your voice. Therefore, practice leading with a calm, assertive energy (and avoid harsh scoldings). As pugs are willful, ensure you remain the alpha dog of the family through effective leadership exercises. A pug that respects its pack leader is more likely to follow commands and, therefore, housebreak quickly.
