We are so excited to welcome two new puppies into our home! Milly will be joining our family permanently, and Bella, her sister, is on loan to us for a few months for us to crate train. My husband and I and our three kids are absolutely swooning over these soft and sweet little babies. The cat has made herself scarce, but our older Cavalier puppy, Rosie, is enjoying being an older sibling.

Our Crate Couture™ tables are ready and waiting to embrace their new residents! This video shows Bella meeting the crate for the first time. You’ll see she acted like an old pro! Crate training is essential in housebreaking a puppy, and it is really not hard at all if you follow a few rules:

Keep the routine.
Keep the routine.
Keep the routine.

But what is the routine, you ask? Check back next week for more specifics and to see the adventures of Bella and Milly as we begin the process of potty training and crate training them. We’ll show you what you need to know to get things started off right with a new puppy. Easy? Not exactly. Simple? Crazy simple. Doable? Absolutely!
