House-breaking your Pit Bull puppy requires a lot of time, effort, and patience on the part of the owner. There is no set time-frame on when your puppy will be able to do this, or how long it will take, you just have to start a routine and stick with it until it is finished. Many owners lose patience with their dogs due to problems that often arise during the house breaking process. This is a process that you and your puppy should go through together, as you want to take things as they come and not punish your puppy.

There are many things that can be implemented or done that could make you and your puppy go through housebreaking with the least possible hassle. Consistency is the first thing you have to pay heed to - as we said earlier, once you've got a routine, you have to stand by it. Take your dog out at the same time everyday, or if you aren't able to, make sure that someone else can. The puppy will soon learn when it is time to go, and eventually will know what is expected of him. Announce the routine to everyone else in your family, and ask them to help if need be. Keeping a doggy diary of sorts may sound like cornball stuff, but this is where you want to place your dog's habits so you can keep track of his progress and make necessary corrections.

So as to avoid any accidents that happen on the inside, it is recommended that you join your puppy outside to make sure he is indeed going to the "bathroom". If you think going out as your puppy goes is "too much information" for you, then confine him to a backyard or crate so that he is aware that this is his "area of business."

Inconsistent feeding habits can be detrimental to any housebreaking procedure. Again, consistency matters here, as you have to give your dog the same portions of food at the same time each day, and avoid rewarding him with yummy treats or in-between snacks until he is fully housebroken.

The top tools you have at your disposal when housebreaking your puppy are not the type that are tangible in nature - we are referring to patience and understanding. He is not going to learn overnight, and there will be messes along the way. Lower expectations if you are currently expecting your dog to be a Wonder-Pup of sorts, and remember, again, to be patient. It is important not to punish your puppy when that happens, rather just clean it up and accept it for what it is, part of the process. If you exercise patience as your puppy grows to adulthood, this can enhance the relationship between man and beast.
