[B]I am wondering, what is a good way to potty train your puppy?

Hey, I am in the same boat. I brought a paper trained pup home and would put him out after meals, after naps and generally every hour. I stayed out and if he did what he should he would get praise...BUT...he would pee outside, then the minute my back was turned he'd mess on the rug...or the other way around. I put papers down but he went everywhere BUT on the papers. He is now residing in a cage with papers, bed, food and water. He is really resisting going on the papers. When he does go he gets lots of praise and gets let out for exercise for 1/2 hr., but I watch him every minute that he is out. Once he gets the idea of using the papers again I will slowly start encouraging him to go to the door and go out when he needs to. Right now it is too much for him to understand that he can go anywhere he wants outside, but has to do it on paper indoors.
