85. Toilet training child compared to puppy.
Toilet Training Your First Puppy in Singapore
1. The right time. Toddlers empty their bladders often up to the age of 20 months. Each child is different. Puppies pee a lot up to the age of 5 months (in research done at Toa Payoh Vets). Each puppy is different.
2. Is your child ready? Depending on emotional and physical development.
2.1 He wants you to change his soiled nappy.
2.2 Grunts or squats when he has a bowel movement.
2.3 Has bowel movements at regular times, e.g. after breakfast.
2.4 Stays dry for a couple of hours each day.
Compared to puppies. New puppies are purchased from 8 weeks old generally and toilet training begins on the first day.
2.5 Whines or barks asking you to change the soiled newspapers. Sometimes after midnight, makes noises wanting you to change the soiled papers but you mistake him for wanting your company.
2.6 Sniffing, circling and looking for an area to pee and poop. May have favourite spots.
2.7. Passes poop after meals within an hour of eating.
2.8 Not dirtying its cage if it is used as a den but wants to go outside the cage to use the toilet. Will pee on the floor if the soiled papers are not changed.
Tips
3. Lots of praise when successful. (applies to puppies. Give treats)
4. Expect accidents during training and learning. (Same in puppies).
5. Never force a child to sit on the potty. (Never force puppies to smell own stools or pee?)
6. It takes longer for a child to learn to stay dry at night. (Withhold water after dinner to encourage the puppy to control its bladder).
7. Not to be angry when there are accidents. (Same with puppies. They run away when they see you are angry or growls at you to protect themselves).
8. Boys take longer to be toilet trained.
