. Potty training your puggle is crucial. People often give up their dogs due to behavioral issues, which can be prevented with careful training while the dog is young. To house train your dog, you will need to keep a careful toileting schedule for him. Take him out to go potty several times per day, especially after meals. You will also need to watch him while he is in the house to prevent him from going potty indoors.  If you notice that your puggle is about to go potty in the house, gently pick him up and take him outside. If you are too late, then do not yell at your dog or hit him or rub his nose in the urine. These measures do not do anything but frighten the dog. Instead, clean up the mess right away and take him out to his potty spot.
