A puppy is a big responsibility and can be very time-consuming.
Having a puppy to look after means lots of love, fun playtime with your puppy, and in some cases, waking up in the middle of the night to take it outside if they wake up in need of the toilet!
Here are our top ten puppy care tips when you buy or adopt Cane Corso puppies.
- Take puppy out to go to the toilet frequently – especially little ones that feel they have done their business when in fact they haven’t quite hit the mark yet!
- Crate train puppy when they sleep at night – this will prevent lots of unnecessary barking (and potentially chewing) when puppy wakes up alone in their crate forthe first time. If puppy isn’t too distressed when they wake up, take puppy out to the toilet straight away – if puppy is crying and barking for food, ignore it. Once you have taken puppy to the toilet, feed them their breakfast.
- Puppy proof your house at all times! Make sure puppy doesn’t chew wires or anything harmful that can harm puppy. You’d be surprised at what puppies will try and eat so make sure anything harmful is out of sight before puppy comes home!
- Lots of love and attention goes a long way with puppy training – just like humans, treat puppy well and reward good behaviour every now and again (with affection or treats) then you’ll find that Cane Corso puppy will want to please you.
- House train puppy as quickly as possible – this is easier to do with puppy toilet training pads or puppy litter trays (with puppy training pads) but sometimes puppy will still go indoors if they are not properly house trained yet. If you find puppy is going in the wrong place, clean it up and offer puppy some puppy toilet training pads instead. Puppy will eventually learn the difference between outside and inside!
- Make sure that cane corso puppy has lots of toys but remove them when puppy starts chewing on them because there could be sharp edges that can harm your pet – if a toy gets too dirty, throw it away and buy a new one for your cane corso puppy to enjoy .
- Puppies love to play with other dogs if they are properly socialised. If puppy has no other dog to play with, puppy could become destructive – by this we mean puppy could chew on your walls or try and jump up onto things they shouldn’t be able to reach!
- Take puppy out for walks every day because it will help both of you get exercise and fresh air – don’t forget that cane corso puppy won’t want to walk as far as adult cane corso so take lots of breaks along the way.
- Cane corso puppy training should start early but at the same time, don’t push puppy too hard because cane corso puppies can easily get stressed out so watch their body language when playing games likepuppy training.
- Make sure puppy has lots of play time – this will keep puppy healthy all around and if puppy is happy then puppy is less likely to be destructive!
The most important thing you can do when you have Cane Corso puppy or any dog for that matter is make sure they are happy before anything else. Dog’s are happiest with their owners so make them feel loved at every opportunity!
