		<description>The best way to train a puppy is to put them on a schedule right away for going outside, feeding and even bed time.  When you get up in the morning, the first thing to do is to take the dog out.  Then take them out after you feed them in the morning about 1-2 hours after they eat.  Then if you go anywhere, make sure you take them out before you leave and take him as soon as you get home.  Then take them out about 1-2 hours after you feed them in the afternoon and take them right before bedtime.     
Dogs are creatures of habit.  They prefer schedules because they learn when to expect things.  They will know when it's time to go out and will not go potty inside the house.  Dogs are smart and  they learn fast.  Also always remember to praise your dog when they go outside and even give them a small treat or cracker.  Positive reinforcement will also help a lot with training your dog.  It also helps them to learn that when they go outside they are doing a good thing.
You should still put down pee pads or newspapers in a place that is familiar to your dog because there may be a time when the dog may not be able to hold it, so they should have a place they know they can go to, such as pee pads or newspaper.  
I have had small dogs for over 24 years and putting them on a daily schedule and positive reinforcement have always worked great with training my dogs.
It's great that your Pomeranian let's you know when they have to go out by scratching on the door.  It shows that you trained her very well.  You should do great with the new puppy.
Best of luck with your dog.  Hope I helped.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Crate training is definitely the best and fastest way to potty train a dog, but it's also one of the hardest to stick to. Your dog will whine and cry constantly and you will have to deal with it. 
There are millions of websites and books that explain how to crate train, so I suggest you check into it. 
If you do decide to crate train, start the day you get the puppy. If you wait, it makes it harder. 
I personally didn't crate train my dog, I tried, but I just couldn't do it. But, he sleeps in my bed every night and is left home alone occasionally and he has NOT had ONE accident sine he was 4.5 months old :]&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Crate training my dog was the answer, and I have never met someone that couldn't crate train their dog. Now my dog stays in my house all day alone and never has an accident, unless he is sick. The potty pads are good for smaller dogs but my dog shredded them the second he saw it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>There are a number of ways to train a new puppy. Of the two most popular, only crate training offers literally the best of all worlds. The reason is that you use the basic instincts of the animal to your advantage.


Housebreaking a new puppy is the only way you can reliably allow your pet to live in the house without it turning into a smelling dog bathroom. This is why the newspapers on the floor in the bathroom is NOT a good idea. Nothing that encourages your pet to relieve himself anywhere inside the home is a good idea. 

The piddle pads, newspapers etc. idea is based on the concept that you should have a place for the dog to go while limiting their inside access. While this is not the best option, if you don't have access to any outdoors area, this may be the only way to limit puppies bathroom potty business to one area of the house.

The absolute best thing you can do for your new pup is to give him a place of his own. We're not talking fancy doghouse here but just somewhere that he can feel safe and secure.... a dog crate is the perfect place for them.

A dog crate limits puppy access to the rest of the house when you're not watching. This is important especially when first housebreaking him. 

Next, it offers your puppy a place to call his own. Oftentimes all the new smells and activities are simply overwhelming to a little puppy and they need to be secure and comfortable. Having a dog crate that is a place he can call home will make everyones life much easier. 

The reason is that when a pack animal like a dog recognizes a den or &#34;his home&#34; they don't relieve themselves in it. They're interested in keeping &#34;thier place&#34; as clean as possible and soiling it is only by accident. Crate training allows for effective control of your pup until such time as they have good control of their bowels and understand that the right place to go to the bathroom is outside!

So crate training is based on your dogs natural instincts while piddle pads and newspapers encourage the pup to go in the very place where you don't want them to go, namely inside your home. 

Potty training for puppy dogs is best done using the crate training method to keep your pup from becoming confused&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
