19. Pee Pan with Wire Flooring - Shih Tzu

Most owners do not know how to use the Pee Pan with Wire Flooring (PPW). The important thing to do is to confine the puppy in a small space so that it will eliminate on the PPW.

SHIH TZU, Female, 5 months old, the owner recounted how he toilet train her:

1. lst 2 days after purchase - eliminate all over the playpen. Dirty her body.
2. 2nd day, used the PPW mainly.
3. 3rd day, PPW + newspapers.
4. 7th day, let out to roam apartment at night. Pee everywhre.
7 days would be too early to be let out without supervision.



5. 21st day, use PPW 90% of the time.
6. Feedbowl taken away after eating. So, the puppy poops 2x/day after breakfast and dinner, within 2 hours.
The puppy usually poops less than 30 min after eating. This puppy was distracted by the owner playing with it. Best is to leave the puppy alone to poop before rewarding it with play and fun.
