I GOT A PUPPY!!! First 24 Hours With My New Bichon Puppy! | Puppy Training &Essentials  

Hi friends👋🏾 I’d like you to formally meet my lil fur baby Marshmallow 🐾💕 Please, like,comment and follow me on IG: @youngladybusiness

She is adorable. The key to potty training is Take her out side as soon as she she wakes up, after she eats, maybe every hour or hour and a half, and before bed. Also you will need to get up in the night to let her out. You have to remember she is a baby just like a human baby so it will take time. When you see her doing a lot of sniffing, that means she is looking for a place to potty.

She is adorable. Training the pup is like training a baby, you have to get up at intervals the same time to let her use the bathroom in the day and throughout the night, feed around the same time and then you should be able to time when she normally uses the batheroo. Get her on a schedule. Such a cutie! So exciting!!!

I feed my dogs meals in their crate everyday. They associate the crate with positivity and meal time. No mess bc they don’t want to poop where they eat. You should be able to add the soft bed back once she’s potty trained. I have no issues with either of my dogs peeing in the crate or chewing up their pad. My dog trainer taught me not to use pee pads at all, but give them A LOT of trips outside to potty, and bring treats to praise anytime they go where they should. They may become dependent on the pad otherwise. Avoiding softer chew toys also helps. If she has plush toys, only use them while actively playing with her - don’t leave her alone with them. That’s how dogs learn to eat/rip up their pads, your socks, etc. Good job not giving into the whining! You’ll learn her signals for potty vs just crying for attention. You got this! The first few months are the hardest. It’ll be worth it to train hard in this period so you dont need to correct things later.

Marshmallow is on her way to being famous. She’s adorable! 🥰

Omg she’s adorable! Potty training is rough. My vet told me that their bladders aren’t strong enough to hold it in for longer than an hour when they are a couple month old. As they get older they gain the muscles to hold it for longer but until then you have to take them out every 1-2 hours. My puppy is now 8 months and I’m so glad potty training is behind us. Just remember the puppy kisses are worth it!

Marshmallow is ADORABLE. Perfect name. My cousins has a little white dog that looks so much like her. She named her Casper from the movie. Can't wait to see S'MORE of Marshmallow. Lol 💕

Hey girl! One thing I wish someone told me when training on the pads...don’t get them hooked completely on the pads. I would definitely encourage you to take her outside every two hours. Still leave the pads out, but, don’t substitute the pads being out for skipping the outside piece. It was a little frustrating having trained my puppy to use the pads and then later trying to teach him to go outside instead of the pads after a certain age. Just sharing what I wish I knew as a pad trainer LOL

Marshmallow is a show off for the camera! LOL She has me cracking up running around that table!!! I love it!!!

She is adorable 😍 When I tell you I was like “oh no” when you said you were letting her sleep in the crate without potty breaks 😅 these little dogs have the tiniest bladders. You should get her outside at least once in the middle of the night and as soon as the sun rises. Also don’t let her potty on pads in house, it only encourages her to associate home with potty and it’ll be harder to housebreak. It’s rough and your sleep will be broken but so worth the effort 💖

Fluffy/cotton things in the crate makes them more likely to use it in the crate. Dogs hate to sit in their own pee/poo so if you leave the floor bear she will be less likely to let it happen again. Also crate train in 15 minutes sessions so she doesn’t associate the crate with being alone for hours. Use treats to make the crate a safe spot. Never punish a dog by putting them in the crate. Then they wouldn’t like the crate. Good luck!!

Congratulations!!! 🐶 Marshmallow is such an adorable name. 💕 I was a new dog mom when I got my little Luna 4 years ago. I got her when she was 6 weeks old. Here are some things that I learned along the way. 1. One of the best things that I did was to start crate training her on the very 1st day that I brought her home. 2. Get her on a schedule for eating, potty breaks, playtime, and sleeping asap. I'm a teacher too, so this helped me so much! Give yourself some extra time with her in the mornings! 3. Find a really good veterinarian and stay on top of her checkups, shots, etc. Don't forget to put her on heartworm and flea prevention when the vet says she can start on them. 4. Puppies can pick up Parvo very easily. So, don't take her around other dogs until she's fully vaccinated. Be careful where you let her walk around outside and in public places. Be sure to clean off her paws with puppy wipes when you bring her back inside. 5. Feed her quality dog food and treats. 6. When you're off from school for a long holiday break, try to keep her on her schedule as much as possible. This will help with separation anxiety when you have to go back to school. As she gets older, you can adjust this. 7. Put one of your tshirts that you've worn in the kennel with her so she can be comforted by your scent while you're at work in the beginning. 8. Give her lots and lots of praise! And be patient! 9. Be careful with the types of toys you buy and watch her while she's playing with them. Learn her "play style" so that you'll know what types of toys she likes. Just like kids, they get bored with their toys too. So, be sure to switch them up from time to time. The more you make sure she's entertained with her toys, the less interested she'll be in chewing up or destroying your things! 10. Enjoy the journey! They grow so fast. You'll truly love the bond that you'll develop with Marshmallow! Don't forget to take lots of pictures. 💕

You are going to love having a bichon! They are super smart and easy to train. And are just very loving. Once you start having children they’re really lovable to children. Very gentle. I wish you many years with your new baby!!!

Marshmallow is so adorable! Having a pet makes home feel complete and brings so much joy!! 💕🐾

It seems she has a lot of energy. Taking her for a walk to experience nature would be awesome! She's such a happy baby!

Marshmallow is incredibly cute! She was having so much fun doing zoomies around the coffee table! Congratulations on your adorable fur baby! 🥰💕😊🤗

Marshmallow is so cute! Loved watching her run circles around the coffee table. 💕

Marshmallow is so cute. You are such an inspiration to young women, everywhere, Kayla. Keep doing your thing.

The Bichon Blitz!!! (They love the circle running). Beautiful dog!!!

Welcome to the Little cutie . Congratulations to the new fur mama , you are starting a journey filled with fun and unconditional love.

Awww congratulations! You are going to be a great fur baby mama. ❤ I'm a breeder of standard poodles up here in Canada, you are on the right track for everything training-wise. I can't wait to see her grow with you, epic adventures await!! 💕 🐕

❤ Oh my! Congrats on your new family member. She's adorable. The name fits her so well

Omg the name marshmallow is too stinking cute 😭❤️❤️❤️ Also you may need to ease her into new food, especially because it can upset their tummy. Look into the bell training for going potty. My brother did this for his dog and it’s a great way for them to let you know when they need to go out.

OMG!!! She is too cute. Her energy is on high because she knows she is loved and her little belly is full, love the name it suits her.

Your lil puppy is a cutie and that name fits her too. Being a paw parent requires much patience, dedication and love. Viewing you're videos you demonstrate these qualities that are needed. All the best on your journey.

You are training yourself for babies in the future. Taken care of a puppy is like taken care of a baby!

Too cute. Brought me joy just watching her.

Aww, Pets Bring So Much Joy ♥️✨

Kaylaaaaaaaaaa! I'm crying... I laughed so much she is so active. So happy. I loved heeer!

She’s so cute! Don’t forget a leash and harness for walks and to hook her up in her car seat. Don’t connect her by the collar for obvious reasons if you were in an accident. Fun times ahead!

She’s tooo cute!! I love her already!! 😍😍❤️❤️❤️

She is so adorable and she has the best dog mommy ever! Please take good care of her!

Ack! Many years of happiness and joy incoming for both humans and bichon~~ Be healthy and happy, Marshmallow!!

Congratulations. I have a Bichon. He's 13 years old and I've had him since he was about 10 weeks. He's my "first born". Him and my 5 year old really fight like siblings. When she gets up, he races to take her spot and she races so that he doesn't get in it, and he rolls around kicking her and smiling. Just a word of wisdom as she grows, get her doggy stairs for the bed and couch. Bichons tend to deal with Intervertebral Disk Disease and so start taking it easy on their back and neck early to prolong their health later. And lastly, Bichons are verrryyyyyy stubborn. Mischeivous! Very hard to train. And that's what makes them special and their own kind. I wouldn't trade mine for anything. Happy momming!

Congratulations on being a fur baby mom! 🐶

Love the detail in the video and she's so cute!! You go girl!!!

Congratulations on your new addition to your family, Happy journey, she's a cutie.

Kayla you reluctantly saying "boo boo" had me cracking up lol 😆 you seemed like you did not want to say that word. I always use "poo poo" or "number 2" with my dog for the same reason lol. Welcome to the family Marshmallow😍 what a cutie pie!!

HI KAYLA, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU MARCUS AND PET BABY, MANY BLESSINGS TO YA'LL!!🙏❤

I had a Bischon for nearly 12 glorious years. Sweetest little boy ever.

Your fur baby is so cute and full of puppy energy. Kayla I can hear your excitement and surprise in your voice. Your voice has gone up to 8 octaves...it's your fur baby mama voice...lol You seem to be doing a great job, keep up the good work girl.

OMG! I love Marshmallow. I love her!

Congratulations on your new puppy. I love the name Marshmallow...🐶

Your such a good mom! Marshmallow is so cute ❤️

Awwww she is adorable!🥰 Reminds me of my Nemo, when he was a puppy. Love her name!

When you finish designing your laundry room make sure you add a utility sink in there. That will help you so much with the care of your dog, her toys and bedding and such. Because you don't want to cross contaminate cleaning her mess up in your sinks and tub. Plus it comes in handy when you want to wash out clothing, clean the mop and so on and so forth.

So fun hearing Kaila hype up Marshmallow while she is doing the zoomies.
