When is it too late to housebreak a puppy?

Technically, it's never too late to housebreak a puppy (or dog). You can housebreak a 6-year-old dog, but it is going to be harder than housebreaking a younger puppy, because the habit of relieving himself whenever is less ingrained. Until puppies are 12 weeks old, they are not physically capable of "holding it" (until then, watch them carefully and take them outside/to their papers whenever they have to go; put them in a crate when you can't supervise them), but housebreaking should begin as soon as you bring your dog home. To do it, simply reward when he (I'm using the masculine here, but the training process is the same for females) relieves himself outside and ignore when he doesn't: punishment is pointless. Hope this helps!
