Puppy Questions

I just had a litter. It is my first and I am not a breeder I just love them. I was wondering how young a pup can be potty trained?

FRIST WHEN YOU GO OUT PUT NEWSPAPER DOWN AND KEEP THE DOG ON THIS ROOM EVERY TIME YOU LEAVE THEN TAKE UP THE PAPERSIF THE DOG NEEDS THE POTTY IT WILL GO TO THAT SPOT AND HOPEFULY BARK TO LET YOU KNOW WHAT HE/SHE NEEDS AFTER ABOUT 1 WEEK YOU WILL SEE A PATTERN OF TIMES THAT YOUR SHIBA WIIL NEED THE GRASS THEN YOU WILL START TO LET HIM/HER OUT AT THIS TIME EVERY DAY FOR US IT IS 7:00 AM, NOON, 3:00 PM, 9:00 PM BUT DIFFERENT DOGS DIFFRENT PROBLAM GOOD LUCK
