Same here, that sounds like training the owner not the puppy. I say 'hurry up' to get a pee on command, guess where I got that? In 14 degree winter weather. So 'hurry up' it is, I'm still giving praise for going when and where I ask. Ditch the papers, take the puppy out a lot, say hurry up or whatever command you want- and expect it. When they deliver give lots of praise. Be patient and kind, you'll have success.

my puppy came home at 9 weeks old.
one of us took him out every 15 minutes. we slowly increased his time. we went from every 15 minutes to 30 minutes to 45 minutes to 1 hour and so on. over night one of us took the pup out every 2 hours. we slowly increased the 2 hours. our pup was crated over night, whenever we couldn't watch him and for short periods during the day to get him use to being crated. we would crate him for 5 to 10 minutes at a time. we did this lots of times. we slowly increased his crate time. sometimes when we crated him we would be in the room with him, sometimes we would leave the room, sometimes we would leave the house.

Little bit OT but I have also just found recently that Karma stays a lot calmer in her outside kennel if after I give her the KENNEL UP command and she goes in, I then close the door and say WAIT. I have to KENNEL UP every time I open the gates to our villa to park or exit so she does not end up on the street. I taught her the wait command early with food and exiting her crate and now i guess she associates it with " i know it is just a short time and the door will open / I will be free again " !! Before I started using the WAIT in tandem with KENNEL UP, she would watch me get in the car and drive out the gates and start yipping and yapping. Now.....she just goes into a DOWN and.......well.....waits.
Doggy behavior and watching them learn stuff is very interesting !!

Hey, we're all laughing about the paper training method, but my parents housetrained many puppies that way. (Although they were small puppies, making small piddles...not like my monstrous puppy who, I swear, pees a gallon every time she squats.)
Anyway, my point is...maybe we shouldn't laugh about things just because they've gone out of fashion.

That would be the Puppy Peeing and Pooping Prevention Paper Procedure.
