--Feel free to ask any question on the comment section below--
1st way
Shih tzus can be easily trained due to its breed. They are also very smart. In terms of potty training your Shih tzu patience is the key. First you need to put some boundaries. Let your Shih Tzu know where will she do her thing. After that, praise them or give them some treats. Never use scolding or hitting as your training method. This can alienate your Shih Tzu.
1. Let your Shih Tzu stay in a crate.
Put her inside when you can't monitor her. This should be big enough so that your Shih tzu can comfortably move around it. Put some toys, bedding and water.
2. Feeding schedule should be regular.
Doing this will make your Shih tzu use the bathroom at regular time as well. If you can feed them at the same time each day much better. At the same time, Never control your dog's access to water this will make them unhealthy. Give them fresh water all the time.
3. Monitor the sign when your Shih Tzu needs to go out.
Doing it for the first time, take your Shih Tzu out when you notice that she's about to use the bathroom. In that way she will learn to associate going outside with relieving herself.
Some sign like squatting or sniffing, you need to take your shih tzu outside so she can eliminate.
For puppies always remember they need to go out more often. They need to use the bathroom around every 2 hours. They are like babies you need to pay close attention to them.
4. Make a regular schedule of letting your shih tzu out of the crate.
This can help you Shih tzu train itself to eliminate outside. Also this is much easier for it to wait instead of eliminating inside. Schedule at least 2 hours walk. After that your Shih tzu will eliminate less, then space out the time between walks.
5. Make a space for a potty spot.
This can help training your dog. Your Shih tzu can recognize the smell of pee and poo, this will encourage it to eliminate again.
Example: Have your dog eliminate in the corner of your backyard.
This can help the training go smoothy. If you don't have a backyard try to find a place where there is at least a patch of grass. Then encourage elimination.
2nd way
Reinforcing Behavior
1. Think of way on how to reward your Shih Tzu
This kind of dog is friendly and they want to please their owner.
Giving them reward when they eliminate can help with their behavior. Two main forms of rewards are praising and giving treats. You can bring a small bag of treats when you are going out with your dog.
Praise your dog when the it eliminates outside. For example "Good dog" and pet it after.
At first you can you treats to train your dogs but take it off when they already know how to eliminate outside. So you can prevent the dog to just expect treats for basic behavior.
2. Reward right away.
Give the reward after she eliminate outside. Say "Good dog" or give it some treat after eliminating. Remember to always be consistent.
3. Think of a command.
Example: "Go Chansey!" . This can remind your Shih tzu that when she needs to eliminate she should go outside. Say "Go Chansey" when you know she is about to eliminate.
4. Scold right away.
When you see your Shih tzu eliminating indoors scold it right away. Say "No!" as you clap your hands. After that immediately take her outdoor to eliminate.
3rd way
1. Never punish your Shih tzu.
Since they don't response well to punishment. If the accident happened already it is already too late to punish the Shih tzu. Punishing your Shih tzu after the accident will just make her confuse.
2. Remove accidents thoroughly.
If an accident happened clean the area thoroughly. You may use an odor-neutralizing spray and be sure to take off any traces of smell from urine and feces.
3. Have more patience.
This kind of dog is highly trainable. It may take up to a few week to house-train it successfully. If this is an older Shih tzu. It may take longer for the training period.

I really admire people who rescues animals especially dogs ^_^

This is the best video since I've been watching easy to remember very good communications. I love that. Thank you.👍👍👍

Cute dog
Good video. I found the first method, crate training, to be the best. I've used that method for every dog (many breeds) I've owned. It takes 2-3 weeks. However, I live in the cold & snowy upper mid west of the USA so the crate never goes outside! Disposable potty pads work well...place one by the back door.
Thank you this is a good thing for my dog ❤
Glad you like it hope it will ^_^
So cute little dog

Please make a video on leash training Shih Tzus. Mine’s 3mos old and is already comfortable with his harness but I’m having trouble with walking him on a leash. He either chews it or just lays on the ground and does... nothing ;-; also I’d like some tips for training my pup simple commands such as ‘sit’ ‘stay’ ‘speak’ and ‘silence’. Thank you very much! ^^
No prob I'll have it done by next week. ^_^ thanks for your suggestion. I would love to see some of your dogs photos. I bet they are so cute!
If he chews it get a treat to lure him out to bite the treat instead :)
Great work

Hey Famlee, I’m not sure if you’ll get to see and read this comment but about two weeks ago, my family adopted a male Shih Tzu puppy. I want to ask. Is there a way to stop a Shih tzu puppy from stop biting? Every time I’m walking around my house doing chores or getting something to eat he always bites my fingers and toes. I know that these dogs are very friendly and wants to play but sometimes I just want to relax by myself you know?.
Yup! I surely can relate to you. Well definitely there is a way to train them not to bite. There will be alot of training methods that you can do but i'll just summarize it for you. 1. Try to give your puppy an alternative toy to bite, 2. Offer them rest time sometimes they just need rest or they just hungry that is why they are getting your attention 3. Use up there energy take them to the yard and run around with them. 4. Reinforce positive behavior is they are clam and quiet already pat them or say "good dog" 5. Be patient since it will take time for your to train your dog ^_^ hope this may help.
Famlee Playtime I see! Thank you so much
@@supadupa8088 Anytime ^_^
Can you make a video about training in the winter time?
no problem! I will make one ^_^
👍

🥰🥰🥰🥰
:D
My aunt gave my lil sis a shih tzu and it's one month old yet I'm having a difficulty on training her where to do her thing... I guess this video will help me....
I hope this video will really help you feel free to ask questions if you need help ^_^
I haven't seen any with a collar on or a lead. When do you introduce them. I live in an apartment and our dogs must be on a lead.
No problem i'll make a video about Using training collar for Potty Training and other lead training methods. It should be out next week. Feel free to request other videos anytime ^_^

Hello, I'm getting a shih tzu pup. I was wondering if I could train to potty in a litter box. I live in the country so there are other loose bigger dogs. So I feel like having my dog indoors is just safer. And I would take him out for fresh air. Is this a good idea
Just got one a few months ago,but she has still to bark.is this a trait of this breed.not complaining lol.
How is she now? Sorry was on vacation for while
😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
^_^
my puppy is just 2 months old, im just wondering if i can still do this?
You can still do it ^_^ good luck!
How much price pappy
Uhm hi there, can i ask if this will do the same to my shichi(shih tzu mixed Chihuahua) ???????
Yup! it should be fine. Good luck!
@@FamleePlaytime yay thanks!
My 2 shih tzu puppies are fighting but when they heard the music of this video they stopped and sleeps what's the background song?
I will try to look for the soft copy of video. I totally forgot what music i used ^_^ glad your dogs like the music :)
Do you have any suggestions because I go to school for 8 hours what should I do??
Training our dog required alot of time. Since you are out for 8 hours. Set a time for you and your dog to have your training after get back.
hello its me jybb i just subscribe
^_^
Waww
^_^
what/every hour does a older shih tzu takes to eliminate like what you said, puppies have to go out every two hours how about the older ones?
sorry for wrong grammar
Average dog will poop from one to five times per day. This is depending on the dog's diet and age.
Do you have any suggestions on training puppy when you work 8 hours a day
I will try to check if can create a video about it ^_^
Yea same . I need that advice . I don't have one yet (that's why I'm doing the research now) but I'm at work for 9.5-10 hours 5x a week . I get a break but 5-6 hours into my shift . How should I train my puppy ?
I also want to know because when I get a house I buying 3 puppy shih tzu. and I go to work from 8:50 Am and get out at 11:45pm. or at 11:58 pm sometimes it depends because I work at a LA fitness and I do babysitting there. then take a little break and have to wait get my son from school. and just wait on my daughter to come home from school. So I get a pretty nice break because I don’t leave until 4:49 pm to go back to work. I just need to know what I can do. because I’m pretty sure that there will be Oopsies. once I come home from work. And I’m pretty sure I’m going have to put puppy pads for the 3 puppy shih tzu I’m gonna get. Need to know what I can do or use for them
Our Dogs are oye Children, our most beloved Family - sweethearts beautiful babies with their dearest mother Dog ! Love Dogs like You love Yourself, comfort them, understand them, and always help Dogs. * Place human-dog friendship and great love above everything, in first place. STOP KILLING DOGS. * BAN breeding Dogs. Forbid Dogs euthanasia. BAN poisoning Dogs. STOP HIGH KILL SHELTERS. STOP KILL SHELTERS COMPLETELY. Animals must be with only those, that can provide them with the best care and real love.
Dogs are the most tortured animals in the world. Every year, millions of dogs are thrown out into homelessness. They are needlessly bred, mistreated, tortured, killed through homelessness and by pervert caretakers who breed dogs for sale or for food, leather, fur. BAN CRUELTY TO ALL DOGS. THE LAW MUST BE CHANGED. Ban using Dogs to fight. Stop chaining Dogs. Ban leaving Dogs outside in Winter and bad weather - Dogs must be with the best Caretakers in loving homes. Dog Lovers must do more, even with giving opinion. Dogs that are not wanted should be put down with morphine, if they cannot be put for adoption and taken by very loving persons.
Ban dog breeding. Dogs should live up to 100 years, like the Dingo's in ecological and clean nature, where soil, water, air and food were pure. Almost all shelters should be closed, except a few that are government approved and sponsored to preserve the species, and where the dogs will be bred in very small amounts for the pure love of the species - not through rape that is done by most breeders, or even forcing dogs to mate, or in-vitro which is also forcing to breed. A loving owner does not have to sterilize his pets because his/her care is so good that mating is not allowed. Sterilization is against nature, it's very painful, deprives the body of needed physiology, hormones, deprives the body of a natural way of cleansing itself and accelerated aging, also causes psychological changes that are unnatural.
Dogs were since thousands of years humanity's friends around the world, among all the other animals. Within the last decades, in literature, within scientific circles, among artists and also among common folks - dogs are being treated as best friends and loved the most. Stop using Dogs and all other animals for testing in labs. * What happened with this sweet mother Dog with her all children, and what will happen ? WE LOVE OUR DOGS MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY, ALSO THE OLDEST SENIORS ! All channels, organizations, should check on their Dogs ( rescued, adopted, having, showed...). OUR DOGS ARE OUR CHILDREN, OUR MOST BELOVED FAMILY ! Wishing You sweet mother Dog and all your children, also all Dogs, loving forever hearts, good homes and the best Caretakers. DOGS SUFFER LIKE PEOPLE - STOP BREEDING DOGS - STOP SUFFERING DOGS - DOGS ARE OVERPOPULATED !
Every dog at home, must have a litter box accessible at all times, because this is the animals health, it suffers without it, and this is a cause of pains and ailments which become more severe over time. Almost all owners mistreat their dogs, ordering them to hold their needs and relieving themselves only when it is convenient for them. The dog is the only animal in the world, that man forces to relieve itself only when it is proper for him/her, which is unacceptable abuse. A dog must clean its body as often as it needs, by itself and whenever it needs it. A dog is the only pet friend kept at home that cannot - is not allowed to - relieve itself at home. When we take a dog home to be our friend - and all dogs should be treated as such - it needs, close to its bed, a litter box. Especially when it is older or sick, because it can have more than one bed at home, depending on the apartment/house size. These places must be dry, warm and clean, but not hot or cold, not where there are chemicals. The bed must be well washed and very well rinsed to not leave any chemicals, like for small babies. It is not understandable, and not forgivable, that people keep dogs at home without a litter box, and they say that they love dogs and that dogs are their friends. Many people abuse dogs and even throw them out on the street (make them homeless), because dogs can't keep their needs and relieve themselves at home at some point. Some even have their dogs put down for this. That's why many dogs that suffer, because they cannot relieve themselves at home, and suffer pains, have difficulties with breathing, and increasing ailments - can sometimes vandalize things at home, are restless, howl, cry or lie and cannot move.
A doggie toilet can also be a canalized shower tray/shower base. Dogs should never use a human toilet, because it is dangerous for them, not only difficult. Respect all Dog's needs !
Remember that a dog feels like a person - suffering, pain, the need to relieve itself, it needs to go out and get fresh air and movement. It needs to be able to move at home and outside, and be safe. People are responsible for their safety.
A dog must have drink as much clean water, as it needs. A dog cannot eat only food that is made specifically for dogs, especially low quality, because it will get very sick. No irradiated foods. Avoid artificial preservatives, flavoring, colorants.
A dog owner eats more than one meal per day, and they are balanced for nutrition and taste. Everyone needs a balanced diet for health and taste, no one can withstand the same kind of food, all the time, which not only is disgusting, but also causes ailments. The dog is forced to eat what it is given by its owner, but it should be able to always pick, to always have a choice of variety.
Love dogs, because they deserve it. Take care of them very well. Remember, that dogs are dogs, that they have their specific needs and their ways of being, of their species. Since hundreds of thousands of years, people all around the world, treated Dogs as their best friends and dearest household members. Never use dogs for sex, it must be forbidden.
Scientists talk about growing meat on shelves (production for testing purposes has successfully begun) - of many animals - which would be the best for our world today, because there won't be animal killing, which is barbarian and very painful. This would be most humane. The world needs such technology, which would be not only most humane but also ecological. 🐕🐾 🌷🌷🌷 People who rescue dogs and other animals are really great. We appreciate your sacrifice. Many people love a dog like a dearest person, like a best friend. Best Wishes! 🐕🐾 🌷🌷🌷
i hope u have also for cats because i have a lot of cat....
Cats are lovely too. Maybe next time I'll make videos about them ^_^
I watch this bc i have a shih tzu
Your shih tzu should be so cute as well! ^_^
How often should a bathe my puppy?
How old is your puppy? The rule is to bathe the puppy at least once a month. Of course if the dog is stink you may bathe him more often. ^_^
I have 2 Shih-tzus, how much food and what time should I feed them?, thank you
How old are they? Sorry for the late reply
My 1 month pet shitzu poops in the Garden sometimes in garrage
That's nice if that is where you want him to do it. You're lucky. ^_^
hey is that my dog I have a dog that looks exactly like him
Most dogs look almost exactly the same. I would love to see your dog ^_^
I had a ship tzus and they need a lot of maintenance
That's true but all the tiredness will disappear when you look at your dog very happy because of you ^_^
Mines like a wee baby,lovable but hard work.love her.
I will try to put my dogs crate outside. My puppy used to know that he shouldn’t get out of the house and where to potty before he got neutered. Did the neutering make him forget stuff? When I call his name he doesn’t come to me as much like he did before. He used to always follow me around outside when I let him free. And he used to know where to potty most of the times before. Now it’s so hard to train him!
He should have since dogs trend to forget training specially when they grow up. Just do the usually training to help them remember it. Give me an update about.
Chansey Lee Shih tzu ok
Can 1 month old shitzu are allowed to walk outside ?If they want to eliminate their thing??
They sure can but It would be better if all the vaccines are finished before risking it.
Hi can i ask can i potty train them in a cage is it ok cuz we dont have a backyard and if i go outside there will be somany dogs and i dont know if they are in vaccine or something im really scared of losing her any advice?
Yes, you may it's about how you train them. Good luck!
