    Please be patient. This is an international site and we volunteer our time here. For those of us in the US it is a holiday and many are spending time with family and/or traveling. For others, they may be sleeping.

    You WILL get your question answered, but it may take time.

    For a new puppy making a strict schedule is important.

    First thing in the morning they go out to potty
    For mine they get a small breakfast at about 8am
    Then it's potty time again
    If you work then set the puppy up in it's area or cage and head off to work
    Come home at lunch time and let puppy out to potty and a quick play and light lunch
    Back to work and back in the crate
    Home from work, let puppy out to potty again and have play time.
    Mine get fed their dinner around 7pm
    Out to potty again.

    It's important to have a strict potty routine and make sure you take them out regularly while they are learning.

    Make sure you do leave your pup alone for long and short intervals while they are young to try and help them overcome any separation issues and gets them ready for being left alone when they are older and possibly more destructive.

    Always have fresh water available and plenty of toys to help with boredom
