147. Maltese stops whining in the study room and uses the pee tray.

Toilet Training Your First Puppy in Singapore

A clear-eyed Maltese. Strong. Made a lot of whining when kept in a playpen for first 2 days. Put into study room. Newspapers + pee tray. He was paper-trained within a week. A teenaged girl keeps him company. At night, he just goes to the study room to sleep by himself.

"Was it the home-breeder's training?" I asked.
"No," the mother said. "The home breeder had 5 pups and he had a towel for them but no newspapers."

This puppy is intelligent. Given a study room, he does not pee anywhere. The pee tray is an excellent idea, preventing soiling of the parquet floor of the study room.
