some times for housebreaking newspapers are used..
for training my trainer recommends little treats
that are eaasily chewed and keeping them in pocket,
"fanny pack" or in containers around the house.

dogs respond to treats as well as praise.

look for a t.v. show called the dog whisperer

it is wonderful

some folks swear by those puppy dog crates..

they say a dog will not mess in their space..

at least she should have a blanket/rug/space

of her own . I have a new dog, but was lucky enough
to get her already house broken..you need to baby
proof your house....watch out for electric cords, phone cords,
com;uter wires, etc...these look very chewable to pups!

sorcha probably has some ideas too.,
enjoy her. she may want to herd you@!
