A dog needs a lot of care and attention, the same as with a baby. Since both have trouble communicating, crying, and whining out of sheer frustration is common. But everything gets better in time.

What you need is to allow each other some time to adjust. You cannot force anything, as some things take time, like gaining his trust, teaching him tricks, and training him to sleep.

You need to help your dog adjust to you and to his new environment by first earning his trust. Trust is the building block of any relationship. Without trust, you cannot expect him to cozy up to you, or to listen to you, let alone follow your commands. You got to focus on earning his trust first to show him that you can take care of him and protect him if necessary.

Remember, you may be his owner, but more importantly, you are now his parent as well. As a parent, you are responsible for taking care of the needs of your child, as well as making sure that nothing bad happens to him.

Once you've already grown comfortable with each other, the things you can do together now increases. You may now establish ground rules that will make your living arrangement with the dog fun instead of hard and disastrous, you may also start teaching him tricks and games, and finally, you may now potty train him and teach him to sleep through the night.

Well, I have provided all the necessary information and tips you need to housebreak your puppy.

As a dog owner, what you will need is a lot of patience and time, a strong determination, and constant repetition. It is very much like caring for a baby, your dog is relying on you to lead him to the right behavioral path.
