In contrast to Gordon Setter's wild puppyhood, the breed tends to be sedate and quiet when they grow up. These competitive dogs do well in several dog sports and may have a busy schedule. Overall, these pups grow up content to hike and hunt with their owners that can understand and meet their needs and drive.
Housetraining can be fairly easy, but there may be exceptions. Be consistent with the bathroom schedule, and pair it up with crate training, which may also serve as a resting place for pups and prevent excessive chewing.
Housetraining takes some time. Although your pup may quickly understand the proper place for peeing/pooping, controlling the bladder is a challenge for pups younger than 4 months. So if you won't be home for a long time, ask someone to accompany your pooch on his pee breaks.
Call your veterinary hospital Metairie, LA to make sure that your pet’s preventatives and vaccinations are up to date before taking your pet on outdoor excursions.
