house training.

hey i got my puppy yesterday and was wondering if you left water down all the time for them when house training? hes always got biscuits down (what the breeder told me she was doing) and has meat for lunch and tea.
once he's been trained i will leave water out for him just not to sure about now.
TIA

You have it the wrong way round. Water needs to be available at all times, and food should be eaten at mealtimes and any leftovers should be taken away.

thank you for clearing that up for me. just wasnt sure cos the breeder had told me what she had been doing.

No problem, and good luck! Congratulations on the new arrival btw, what breed is he?

he's an Australian cattle x border collie, big ball of fluff on legs at the moment. very playful! :o
