Welcome to the wonderful worl of Rottweilers!! I must say CRATE TRAINING IS A BEAUTIFUL THING. Having a pup is like having a new born...constant supervision and lots of sleepless nights. Unless you want a 100lb. dog peeing on newspapers, you have to nip that in the bud. Take the pup out all of the time to the same place. Repetition is key...Say let's go outside and go potty. It is very important that you are consistent in your wording while trainig a new pup. Take your pup out after eating, drinking and playing. Always make sure they go, and if not wait five minutes and take the pup out again. Once they go, say "good potty" or something along those lines. You will laugh at yourself for how excited you get when the little one learns these things. My neighbors must think I am a freak when they hear "good poopie" LOL. The things we do for LOVE. Also, this is VERY important....Don't correct your pup for ANYTHING -UNLESS you catch them in the act. Otherwise, they don't know what they have done. You can't wake up to pee on the floor and correct them. Chances are they forgot that they did the deed. Sorry I am blabbing, anyway, welcome. Stick around It's fun here.:D
