All dogs are curious babies.
From the first time out of the puppy period, the dog will bow its head and sniff the surrounding environment. It can be said that they know the world through their noses. When glutinous rice went out as a child, it was like a sweeping robot, smelling it all the way. And puppies basically give what to eat and how much to eat. It is also because it strolled downstairs and saw half a steamed stuffed bun or a bare corn cob discarded on the road. This situation gives me a headache. Disorderly eating is a bad habit, must be killed in the cradle. Curiosity can kill not only cats but also dogs.
Indiscriminate eating is harmful
Dogs and people are not the same, can not tell what can eat what can not eat. If allowed to eat this bad habit, it may bring bad consequences. Pick up can't eat food, light vomiting diarrhea, heavy poisoning death. Not everyone in this world likes animals, and some people hate or even hate dogs. Last year, I heard the sad news that many dogs died because they ate poisonous food. Many stray dogs were recruited, and even some of the family dogs died because they ate poisoned food by mistake.
Glutinous rice eating experience sharing
Glutinous rice is a child who likes to mess with flowers and grass when going out. Every time he takes it for a stroll in the neighborhood, he will occasionally chew a few bites of grass. It is estimated that there are many dogs eating grass. In winter, there is an unmanned small flat in the community where glutinous rice is often taken to play, and fruit falls all over the ground. At that time, I didn't care too much. Glutinous rice ate one because of curiosity. Glutinous rice father saw, did not have time to stop. The next morning after returning home, glutinous rice vomited a little and had slight diarrhea. But the mental state is very good, still play with its toys. In this case, I immediately fed it a pack of probiotics and fasted. The night is basically fine. Later, I went to the small ping to see the fruit. Asked some elders said it was called the fruit of the neem. This kind of fruit can kill insects and is slightly poisonous. If the dog has the bad habit of picking up food on the ground, it really needs to be corrected.
"Let go" command formation.
When glutinous rice was about half a year old, I taught it a simple command to "let go", which would make it spit out the contents of its mouth immediately, whether it was food or toys. Of course, the original intention of teaching it this instruction is to be afraid that it will eat indiscriminately outside. I probably recalled the way I taught it this instruction at the time. First of all, I said let go when it was playing with toys. It was definitely incomprehensible. So you need to personally take it out of its mouth. When you take it, say let go. Give a snack reward after taking it away. Repeated this behavior several times, the dog will think will slowly understand. After a few times I tried to say let go, and it would spit out on its own. If it is not possible to repeat it several times. When he learns to let go of this command. I chose the larger molars snack to teach it to spit out food. I am very happy that the food is in my mouth. I said let it go and spit it out. Of course, everyone can directly take food to teach, but choose food that is convenient to take out of its mouth.
Of course, this instruction can be replaced by many words, such as put, spit, spit out, bah, etc. As long as the dog can learn to understand the meaning of this instruction, it will be OK.
After learning to let go of instructions, one thing needs to be strengthened. Every time it picks up something on the ground outside and wants to eat, I say let it go, it will spit it out immediately, and then I will give a reward immediately. Not only in this case, sometimes the elders in the family secretly feed the bones and wait for what I don't allow it to eat. I give instructions as soon as I find out, and I will give it food to eat to reward it. So this directive has been very effective. I often and glutinous rice said not to eat because some things can't eat, glutinous rice can eat their own snacks. The dog is very smart, it will understand me. Perhaps because of this over and over again, glutinous rice is more good outside, and the situation of eating indiscriminately has improved a lot. Basically, it only eats snacks I feed.
Summary of experience in eating indiscriminately
First of all, the puppy period should let the dog develop good habits and kill the bad habits in the cradle. Always take some snacks with you. When the dog wants to pick up food on the ground or eat something that should not be eaten, stop it in time and give snacks. Perhaps because I often do this basic glutinous rice will not pick up food that has been discarded on the ground, but occasionally I will mess with flowers and grass. In addition, during the period of walking the dog, it is necessary to take the traction rope well within the uncontrollable range, which is also conducive to reducing the situation of the dog eating indiscriminately. When playing, I will also stare at glutinous rice to prevent it from eating by mistake. The instruction to let the dog spit out food is really useful. I used this method to make it spit out a lot of food that should not be eaten. We can teach it together. Prevention is better than treatment, so many bad problems I have corrected glutinous rice since childhood. As long as everyone is willing to put their mind to it, every dog will be a warm-hearted little angel.
