We got a potty box 🚽🧻

Post playtime group nap

The A Team is now 3.5 weeks old, they are getting more mobile and growing and growing. Now is the time that I introduce the "potty box". The potty box is pressed wood pellets covered with a washable pee pad. The puppies naturally want to avoid soiling their bedding area. Hopefully, you've watched the Puppy Culture films for more on this method of potty box training. Providing the puppies with a designated potty area starts them off with the foundation for housebreaking which makes transitioning to their new home a breeze. 

Hello potty box!

Alfred (Black Boy) climbs over it ;) 

Addie (Pink Girl) decides to taste it first ;) 

The pups are taking to their potty box (at first they wanted to chew it) and the wood pellets will transition to fake grass which is a bit easier to maintain (keep clean). 

By the weekend, they will have their first meal of goats milk, Honest Kitchen mush and gruel (ground up kibble) they will also be introduced to minced raw meat for those who raw feed.
