Housebreaking Puppies and Adult CHOW CHOWS

Happy Housebreaking!
This method of housebreaking is focused on preventing "accidents" instead of waiting for accidents to happen. The goal is to make it easy for the puppy to do the right thing in the first place. Training in this way is faster and more effective than punishing the Chow Chow for mistakes. YOU play the most important part in the success or failure of this method - you must be patient, determined and reliable for it to work.
If you already own an adult Chow Chow with housebreaking problems, you can use this method to start fresh just as you would with a puppy.
This method also requires the use of a Chow Chow crate or at least, a small, confined area for the pup to stay in when he can't be supervised. A crate isn't cruel! It's your Chow Chow's own private room where he can rest and stay safe, secure and out of trouble. Just like a small child, your puppy needs to be protected from hurting himself and destroying your furniture. A crate will make the job so much easier!
The first few weeks of owning a puppy are some of the hardest and most important. Spending extra time and effort now will pay off in a big way. Don't blame the puppy if you're lazy!
Before you start, here are some essential housebreaking facts:

Adult Chow Chows can be housebroken in the same way as puppies.
Puppies have limited bladder control.
Chow Chows & puppies like to be clean and sleep in a clean area.
All Chow Chows do best when kept to a routine schedule.
Chow Chows have to go poddy when.....
....they wake up in the morning or after a nap.
....within 1/2 hour after eating
....before they go to sleep
If a Chow Chow and especially a puppy is not allowed to relieve itself at those times, it will most likely have an accident. Don't wait for the Chow Chow to "tell" you that it has to go out. Just assume that he does and put him outside.
Housebreaking Baby Puppies
Baby puppies, under 3 months of age, have limited bladder control and reflexes. They usually don't know they're going to "go" untill the moment they do! It's not realistic to expect them to tell you ahead of time. If you're observant, you'll see that a puppy who's looking for a place to go poddy will suddenly circle about while sniffing the floor. The sniffing is instinct - he's looking for a place that's already been used. If he can't find one, he'll start one! By preventing accidents in the house, you'll teach him that the only appropriate bathroom is the one outside!
Ideally, you're reading this before you've brought your new puppy home. If you already have your puppy, just pick up the schedule at an appropriate place.
Set up a Chow Chow crate or small, confined area (the smaller the better.) Using a Chow Chow crate will be more effective. The size of the crate is important - if it's too large, the puppy will have room to use one end as a bathroom. If you've bought a crate for him to "grow into", you can also get dividers to reduce the inner space while he's small. If he must be left alone while you're at work, then a larger crate is okay. Put a stack of newspapers at one end for him to use when you can't be home to let him out.
Also in the crate should be a sleeping pad and toys. Put the crate where he isn't shut away from the family. If you're using a confined area instead, a baby gate across the doorway is preferable to closing the door and isolating your puppy.
sYour puppy might not like the crate at first. Don't give in to his complaining or tantrums! If you're sure he isn't hungry or has to go poddy, ignore his yowling. If he gets really obnoxious, reach inside the crate, give him a little shake by the scruff of his neck and say NO in a deep, stern voice. Eventually he'll settle down and sleep which is what crates are for! If you give a tempting treat every time you put the Chow Chow in his crate, he'll soon look forward to going in.
The crate is intended to be his sleeping and feeding place and is where he should be when you can't keep a close eye on him. If you give him the run of the house at this age, you can expect accidents! Chow Chows instinctively keep their sleeping areas clean. If you've allowed him to go poddy when he needs to, he won't dirty his crate if he can help it. Once he's developed better control, he won't need the newspapers unless you're going to be gone all day. Change the papers several times a day if they've been soiled.
Puppy's First Night Home
Get off on the right foot at the beginning! Carry the puppy from your car to the yard. Set him on the grass and let him stay there untill he poddies. When he does, tell him how wonderful he is! After bringing the pup inside, you can play with him for an hour. Plan on taking the puppy outside every two hours (at least) while he's awake. Don't wait for him to tell you that he has to go!
Feed the puppy his supper in his crate. Don't let him out for half an hour and when you do, carry him outside to poddy before you do anything else. Wait for him to have a bowel movement before bringing him back in. Some pups get their jobs done quickly, others may take half an hour. If he's being slow, walk around the yard encouraging him to follow you. Walking tends to get things moving, so to speak!
***Always take the puppy outside first thing when you let him out of the crate and always CARRY the puppy to the door!! This is important. Puppies seem to have a reflex peeing action that takes affect the moment they step out of the crate onto your carpeting. If you let him walk to the door, he'll probably have an accident before he gets there. Part of this training method is psychological - you want the puppy to feel grass under his feet when he goes to the bathroom, not your carpeting!
After another short play period, take the pup outside before bedtime, then tuck him into his crate for the night. If he cries during the night, he probably has to go out. Carry him outside to poddy, then put him back in the crate with a minimum of cuddling. If you play with him, he might decide he doesn't want to go back to sleep! Puppies usually sleep through the night within a few days.
Daytime Schedule
Establish a regular schedule of poddy trips and feedings. This helps you to control the times he has to go out and prevent accidents in the house. First thing in the morning - before you have your coffee - carry the puppy outside. He can then come in and play for an hour. Feed breakfast in the crate and don't let him out again for 1/2 hour. Then carry him back outside for poddy. Puppies usually have a bowel movement after each meal so give him time to accomplish it.
Now he can have another inside playtime for an hour or so. Don't give him free run of the house, use baby gates or close doors to keep him out of rooms he shouldn't go in. (Puppies are notorious for finding out of the way corners to have accidents in - keep him in an area where you can watch him). If you give him too much freedom too soon, he'll probably make a mistake. After playtime, take him outside again then tuck him into his crate for a nap.
For the first month or so, you'll be feeding 3-4 meals per day. Repeat the same procedure throughout the day: poddy outside 1st thing in the morning, 1 hour playtime, poddy, meal in crate, poddy, playtime, poddy, nap, poddy, playtime, meal, etc. The playtimes can be lengthened as the puppy gets older and is more reliable. Eventually the puppy will be letting you know when he needs to go out but remember - if you ignore his request or don't move quickly he'll have an accident!
I know this sounds like a lot of work and it is! The results of all this runnin' in and out will pay off in a well-housebroken puppy and clean carpets.
Keep in mind that some breeds are easier to housebreak than others and how the puppy was raised before it came to you has an affect, too. Pet store puppies who were allowed to use wire-bottom crates have less inclination to keep their crates clean. Puppies that were raised in garages or other large areas where they could "go" wherever will also be a little more difficult. Don't give up though - you can train them, it will just take a little longer.
Paper training?
A word about paper-training: It seems harmless to leave papers about "just in case" and for us who work all day, it's a necessity. However, paper-training your pup will make the overall job of housebreaking that much harder and take longer. By only allowing the pup to relieve itself outside, you're teaching it that it's not acceptable to use the house. Using newspapers will override this training. Also, be aware that many puppies get the notion that going poddy NEAR the papers is as good as going ON them! If you must use newspapers when you're gone, keep to the regular housebreaking schedule when you're at home. Get the puppy outside often enough and don't leave papers out "just in case".
Encouraging Clean Habits
Keep your Chow Chow's yard picked up and free of old stools. Many Chow Chows choose an area to use as a bathroom. If left to become filthy, they'll refuse to use it and do their business in the house instead! If your Chow Chow has to be tied up when he's outside, keeping the area clean is even more critical. If you could only move about in a small area, you wouldn't want to lie next to the toilet, would you?
Picking up stools helps you keep tabs on your Chow Chow's health as well. Stools should be firm and fairly dry. Loose, sloppy stools can be an indication of worms, health problems, stress or digestive upset.
Housebreaking Older Chow Chows
You can use a modified puppy schedule to train an unhousebroken Chow Chow or one that's having housebreaking problems. Start from the beginning just like a puppy, use a crate and put them on a schedule.
An older Chow Chow can be expected to control itself for longer periods provided you take it outside at critical times - 1st thing in the morning, after meals and last thing at night. Untill they're reliable, get them outside every 3-4 hours in between those times. Adopted older Chow Chows that have always had freedom may be unwilling to have a bowel movement when on a leash. You can either walk them longer or keep them confined untill they really gotta go.
Just like a puppy, don't give them the run of the house and keep them in a crate or small area if you can't supervise them. You can give them more freedom as they become more reliable.
What to do if the puppy has an accident
Remember, this method of housebreaking is based on PREVENTING accidents. By faithfully taking the Chow Chow out often enough, you'll get faster results than if you discipline the puppy after the accident has already happened. If you puppy makes a mistake because you didn't get him out when you should have - it's not his fault!
If you catch the pup in the act, stay calm. Holler NO while you scoop the puppy up immediately - don't wait for him to stop piddling - and carry him outside to an area he's used before. As you set him on the ground, tell him "THIS IS WHERE YOU GO PODDY!" and praise him as he finishes the job. Leave him out a few more minutes to make sure he's done before bringing him back in.
This is a little trickier with an adult Chow Chow especially if he's new to you and you don't know how he'll react to being grabbed and thrust outside. Holler NO and put a leash on to take him out and show him where the bathroom is. Make a point of getting the Chow Chow out more often in the future!
ANY other corrections such as rubbing his nose in it, smacking with newspapers, yelling, beating or slapping only confuse and scare the Chow Chow. If you come across an "old" accident, it really doesn't pay to get too excited about it. Chow Chows aren't smart enough to connect a past act with your present anger and he won't understand what you're so mad about. He'll act guilty but it's only because he knows you're mad at him. He has no real idea why. Point the spot out to him and say "WHAT IS THIS?" but that should be limit of your correction.
Temporary Housebreaking Problems
Keep in mind that health problems, changes in diet and emotional upsets (moving to a new home, adding a new pet or family member, etc.) can cause temporary lapses in housetraining. Diabetes in adult Chow Chows and urinary tract infections in both puppies and adults can cause Chow Chows to have to urinate more often. Urinary infections in young female puppies are common. A symptom is frequent squatting with little urine release. If you suspect a physical problem, please take your Chow Chow for an examination.
Sudden changes in Chow Chow food brands or overindulgence in treats or table scraps can cause diarrhea. Chow Chows don't need much variety in their diets so you're not harming yours by staying to one brand of food. If you make a change, do it gradually by mixing a little of the new food with the old, gradually increasing the amount of new food every day. A sudden change of water can cause digestive upset, too. If you're moving or traveling, take along a couple gallons of "home" water to mix with the new. Distilled water from the grocery store can also be used.
Cleaning up accidents
If you've worked hard with this training method, you won't have many! Put your puppy (or adult Chow Chow) away out of sight while you clean up a puddle. Chow Chow mothers clean up after their babies but you don't want your puppy to think that YOU do, too! Clean up on linoleum is self-explanatory. On carpeting, get lots of paper towel and continue blotting with fresh paper untill you've lifted as much liquid as possible.
There are several home-made and commercially available "odor killers" that are helpful. In a pinch, plain white vinegar will work to help neutralize the odor and the ammonia in the urine. (Don't use a cleaner with ammonia - it'll make it worse!) Sprinkle baking soda on the spot to soak up moisture and to help neutralize odor, vacuum when dry. At the pet store, you can find a good selection of products that may be more effective. A diarrhea stain on carpeting or upholstery can be lifted with a gentle solution of lukewarm water, dishwashing soap and white vinegar.
Puppies are attracted to urine odors and their noses are much better than ours! Even when using a commerical odor killer, a teeny residue will be left behind that our Chow Chows can smell. Keep an eye on that spot in the future! This remarkable scenting ability does have an advantage - if you must paper-train your Chow Chow and he doesn't know what newspapers are for yet, "house-breaking pads" are available at your pet store. Treated with a mild attractive odor (too weak for us to smell), your puppy will glady use them!
Advice for owners of male Chow Chows
Your male puppy will begin to lift his leg between 4-9 months of age. It signals the activation of his sexual drive and instinct to "mark" territory. This is a perfect age to neuter your Chow Chow and avoid the unwanted behaviors that accompany sexual maturity - marking in inappropriate places, fighting and aggression toward other male Chow Chows. Intact (unneutered) males will mark any upright object and are especially hard on your shubbery and trees. Some males will also mark inside the house, particularly if another Chow Chow comes to visit or if you're visiting in someone else's home. If you use your male for breeding, you can expect this behavior to get worse. Neutering your Chow Chow will protect his health, help him to live longer and be a better pet along with improving his house manners!
