How I Trained My Pit Bull Puppy

My pit bull puppy was born last December, she's now eight months old. but, I didn't wait until now to start training her. I started from the time she started walking. She started walking at around two months old, but, I didn't start to train her until three almost four months old, that is  when I really started training her. She was still feeding from her mother at that time. I started training her by separating her from her mother and only letting her be near her mother when it was time to feed her,than at four months I stop letting her feed on her mother and started giving her puppy food.

Before that I would leave her with the mother for about an half hour after feeding so that they could bond, and play, and also to help keep her clean because, her mother would lick and clean her pups with her tongue. At that age usually after they've eaten they just wanted to go to sleep mostly. I would let her sleep next to me on the floor most of the time after that. Her mother would always know when I have one her pups because, she watch them very closely whenever someone picks one up she was very protected of them, as any mother would be. When she sees that I'm not hurting her she's OK with it because, she has more pups to attend to.

After training your pit bull puppy where to poop! it's now time to train them on other things as well, like how to obey you .things like "come here, stay, sit, stop, jump, rollover", and just to come to you no matter what they see outside, and just to learn their name when you give a command like "come, and stay" they should know that you're talking to them, and they should come running every time you call them. My pit bull puppy will come to me if I just snap my fingers without saying a word, and she knows when she have done wrong just by the way I look at her. Teach them to come, and stay, that is very important because when you're outside you don't want them to run across the street whenever they want to.
