What if my puppy has already messed in the house?
Firstly, blame yourself and promise that you will try and do better in your supervision, anticipation and timing!! Secondly, clean the area using an enzymatic cleaner made especially for the purpose. This will reduce the smell that may make it more likely that your puppy will go back to the same location if it is not removed. Avoid deodorizing agents that reduce your ability to smell the odor rather than remove it as these contain ammonia. As ammonia is a component of urine its use may encourage your puppy to go to that location to toilet. Moving any feces and newspaper with urine on to the location you want your puppy to use may help to establish the associations you want.
