re: Potty training your pup..

I didn't crate train, used positive reinforcement with treats, and it took about 6 weeks - though I'm home all day and watch him like a hawk. Puppy was 8 weeks old when I got him. Crate probably works the best, but I wanted to enjoy my pup right away and couldn't listen to him yapping all day or night in the crate. He was sleeping with us by the 3rd night. That was my biggest mistake. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

I wouldn't crate him all day.
We would just crate at night. First at the bedside so that you could stick your hand in and pet the pup to calm him down, then on the other side of the room and then in his own room. Now, he loves to sleep in his crate.
As for the potty training, I would just watch him and make sure that you give him ample opportunity outside, treats, etc.
