*354 The Yorkshire Terrier was paper-trained on soiled papers
Toilet Training Your First Puppy in Singapore
This Yorkshire puppy had the best upbringing and the best home in Singapore. A crate with a mattress, pillow and bolster and blankets and pee pan. A playpen with a pee pan. A separate eating area away from the sleeping area. All 3 objects are placed distant from each other. The playpen with the pee pan below is to confine the puppy earlier. Now, the pee pan with newspapers is taken out from the playpen.
A professional dog trainer recommended this layout and it seemed to work as the puppy was paper-trained in 8 days. A domestic help in addition to the owner and her 9-year-old daughter to house-break or toilet train the puppy.
I did a house-call as the puppy gagging cough, because the trainer recommended me. I noted that the newspapers on the pee pan were not changed. "Why don't you change
the soilded newspapers?" I asked as I saw urine on the left half and stool stains on the right half.
"The trainer said not to change newspapers," the lady owner said. She had postponed her business appointments to be available when I did the housecall at 11 a.m.
"Are you sure?" I asked. It was not the recommended procedure. "Papers are changed frequently but you may leave the 2nd lower piece behind."
In this situation it is best not to conflict with the professional trainer. I asked her to phone the trainer. The trainer said to change the papers frequently.
This puppy had a drinking bowl, chew bone at a distance from his cage because this was recommended by the trainer. "Sometimes, he would bring back pieces of marconi to his crate to eat," the mother laughed.
"How about at night?" I asked. The puppy's crate will be in the daughter's bedroom. The puppy would run out to the pee pan in the living area to pee. There would be lights switched on.
The paper-training was successful in less than 8 days. With time spent on monitoring and training, results are good with less time spent.
The mother also trained her daughter well. "Sit properly," she said when she saw her daughter reading the "Yorkshire Terrier" book lying down on the sofa. It is really lots of work for a working woman trying to bring up a child properly and teach her to be a good person as well as a graduate. It is much easier to bring up a puppy.
Well, the puppy did have a "kennel cough" for the past 8 days. He recovered after 3 days on medication. He was shivering on day 3 of medication. Was he having reaction or low blood sugar or just frightened of being given medicine? He disliked the medicine. I asked that he not be given medication.
This puppy was very well loved and will be a great friend of the daughter whose favourite book is "Mr Midnight" and whose mother said ought to read more, for years to come.
