Toilet training a Pomeranian puppy can be a bit challenging due to their small size and high energy levels. However, with consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement, you can successfully toilet train your Pomeranian puppy. Here are some steps you can follow:
Remember, every puppy is different, and some may take longer to toilet train than others. It’s essential to be patient, consistent, and provide positive reinforcement throughout the process. If you’re having difficulty toilet training your Pomeranian puppy, consider consulting a professional dog trainer for additional guidance and support.
Due to their small size, toy breeds like the Pomeranian may be a little more difficult to potty train. Due to their smaller bladders and increased frequency of urination compared to larger dogs, small dogs require more attention from you when housetraining them.

If he uses the restroom there, praise and reward him. Consider this to be a “win” that merits praise and a reward, even if you have to physically pick up your Pom and they only finish going potty outside. This will increase motivation and positive reinforcement for using the designated restroom.
The reason your Pom is marking is probably because he or she feels the need to “claim” the home. Why? Because all dogs, regardless of breed, need to understand the “order of the pack”.
Dogs used to run in packs and had a leader at all times. Dogs still need to understand “Who is in the pack?” and “Who is the leader?” (also known as the “Alpha dog”) even though they are domesticated. Who is the canine leader if their human family member is at the top?
You have already demonstrated to your dogs that you are the alpha dog in the pack by feeding, training, walking, and providing all of the other care they need.
The frequency of Pomeranian puppies’ poop.
Frequency – Typically, healthy dogs have 1 or 2 stools per day. Three, four, or more stools per day for your Pom would indicate a problem with loose stools or perhaps even diarrhea. If your dog or puppy only poops once every other day (or less), there may be a constipation issue.
Let’s examine the actions you can take to shield your Pomeranian from constipation.
Give your dog plenty of water. Some dogs are picky about their water and won’t drink old, stale, or warm water. Use filtered tap water because unfiltered tap water can contain various “nasties” that can lead to allergies, stomach upset, and coat problems. As a result, make sure to keep the water bowl fresh. Make sure to replenish it with cool or cold water throughout the day.
Additionally, have two bowls (or even more) on hand so that you can easily place one in the dishwasher or set one aside in the sink while using the other to serve water. Food crumbs are easily transferred from the plate of food to the water dish. Owners must therefore be aware of the necessity of routine bowl cleaning.
Introduction. Pomeranians make wonderful pets because they are relatively simple to train. This applies to basic behavior and tricks just as much as it does to potty training. The most important thing to remember is that consistent training will make your Pom react much more quickly.
Pomeranians make wonderful pets because they are relatively simple to train. This is valid for both basic behavior and tricks as well as potty training. The most important thing to remember is that consistent training will cause your Pom to react much more quickly. It is entirely up to you to give your Pom the proper training so that she can use the bathroom outside. This is where being consistent really pays off; if you keep switching up your training techniques, your dog will stay confused and might never learn the proper way to urinate outside.
It is your responsibility to teach your Pom that it is improper to urinate or poop inside the home. However, you must set reasonable expectations. This is a skill that will take time for your dog to develop. A Pom puppy can typically hold itself for “one hour per month of age,” up to a maximum of six hours. An adult Pom can maintain their position for up to eight hours. Never depart from your dog for more than eight hours.
You must first find a way to prevent your dog from entering the house when you aren’t home to watch over him. Using a training crate is the most effective way to accomplish that. When you need to go away for a long time or can’t watch your dog, use this. Just a few additional items, such as a leash and treats, are required in addition to this. You’ll also need potty training spray, which is available at most p
et supply stores, for one method.
In order to prevent an unhealthful weight gain, try not to always leave food out for them. Because pomeranians are smart dogs, six never leave them alone for too long.
For instance, if your pet has spent the entire day indoors, instead of entertaining them when you first get home, immediately let them out in the yard or begin the walk. Giving your dog praise and/or a treat after they have urinated and defecated will help them understand why they are outside. Playtime with your dog is then possible.
It’s crucial to introduce new food to your dog gradually over the course of at least a week whenever you switch the brand of food you give him or her.
Give 25% of the new food and 75% of the old food for the first two days, then a 50:50 mixture for the following two days, and finally 25% new food and 75% old food until the transition to the new food is complete.
The most common medical cause of excessive urination in dogs is urinary tract infections. Bladder stones, diabetes, kidney issues, liver disease, and Cushing’s disease are additional causes.
Dogs spray (mark) for a second reason: both male and female dogs. Some people are mistaken in thinking that only male Pomeranians mark the house by essentially peeing all over it. This misconception may arise from the perception that male Pomeranians are more dominant.
It’s important to note that puppies under three months old don’t do this, so if your two-month-old puppy is peeing everywhere, there’s probably another reason.
It’s a canine instinct to mark its territory, but it’s not always necessary to do so on the same day. For instance, if a friend brings their dog over for a play date, the scent of that dog will linger in your home for quite some time, and your Pomeranian may start to spray urine in an effort to “reclaim their territory”.
So using a playpen is preferred. This calls for a lot of endurance. And you have to keep going. Though it will pay off in the long run to do this correctly in the initial few weeks.
Here’s what to do in that situation: Take them right away to their designated outdoor bathroom location without creating a scene. If your dog finishes there, give them some praise and a treat. Do not punish your puppy for going potty inside. Simply clean up any messes you find. dot. Thoroughly clean the stained area.
Your dog or puppy needs to be trained to go outside on a regular basis. Accidents happen during the housebreaking process, but if you follow these fundamental instructions, you can start your family’s newest member off on the right foot.
Puppies thrive on routine schedules. The schedule teaches them that there are specific times to eat, play, and go to the bathroom. Puppy bladder control typically lasts an hour for every month of age. So if your puppy is 2 months old, they can hold it for roughly 2 hours. Don’t go more than this long between bathroom breaks; otherwise, they might trip and fall.
Take your puppy outside frequently—at least every two hours—as soon as they wake up, throughout and after playtime, and after consuming any food or liquids.
Housebreaking is still possible in busy households where a Pom is left unsupervised for the majority of the day, but it will frequently take longer than in a home where an owner is present most days.
Having said all of this, it usually takes a Pomeranian 2 to 4 months to become fully housebroken.
Toy breed dogs are often believed to be simple to train to use a litter box or pee pads. It’s possible, but it’s not as simple as it might seem. Due to a dog’s natural desire to “pick just the right spot” to urinate or eliminate, a puppy may struggle or resist using pee pads.
However, if you are persistent and your puppy is cooperative, you can train him indoors.
