My puppy was nine weeks old when we got him. He was nearly completely housetrained to go outside. Start now.

Probally as soon as you get it home because the sooner you do that the sooner you can teach it to hold it pee until you get home or anything else you want to teach it like basic commands

As soon as you bring it home! Some people move the puppy pads closer and closer to the door. Personally, I take a stained puppy pad and stake it outdoors where you want the puppy to "go". Research "crate training". Carry the puppy out to the pad you put outside, and put him down beside it. Tell him to "go pee" "go bathroom", whatever. He’ll smell the pee on the puppy pad, and it will let him know that this is the place. Be consistent. Don’t let the puppy walk to the door, or you may have an accident. Depending on breed (small breeds mature faster), it may take a few weeks for your puppy to be housetrained, because their bladders are not mature enough to "hold it".

You can start even when they are puppies. When I first brought home my dog she was a puppy and we trained her with the pee pee pads. Now she doesn’t even wanna pee outdoors. Whenever I walk her so waits to get home to pee.
