Preface

defecation training, the most important thing is a habit problem, not a technical problem in training. The first thing we need to do in the fixed-point training for dogs is to understand the living environment and habits of dogs. First of all, there are many ways to buy dogs, such as regular kennels, family breeding and pet shops. Some kennels will give early training to pet dogs, so dogs may learn to defecate at fixed points faster when they enter a new family. Pets in pet shops basically eat, drink and scatter in cages without early training or diapers. No matter what kind of channel to buy a pet dog, it is recommended that you understand the dog's initial living conditions before you take it home. This will help us take better care of the guiding puppies.

the cause of the dog's indiscriminate urination:

1: physical diseases, such as urethritis and gastrointestinal discomfort.

if it is a dog with urethritis, there may be some unconventional behaviors, such as urinating when sleeping. Dogs are also prone to sudden diarrhea when they have gastrointestinal discomfort.

2: Mark the site.

if the marking behavior is easy to observe, the dog will lift his feet when he returns home after urinating or urinating, or when he goes to someone else's house, or when he lifts his feet in a corner, trying to squeeze out a few drops of urine.

3: Behavioral habits.

Most puppies defecate and urinate without the early training of breeders.

A demonstration of correcting a dog's open defecation error

When Glutinous Rice was just picked up, I was still a novice mother and had no idea how to take care of a puppy. The urine habit guide is also the constant groping. But I made a very serious mistake in the process. The former breeder and some friends around him said that if the dog did not obey, he would fight. We were particularly angry when Glutinous Rice was defecating, reprimanding him and beating him with a small cardboard. Thought it wouldn't shit and pee. This is a demonstration of a huge mistake. Glutinous rice itself is a relatively timid dog, when we do this behavior. Will make a bad connection in its mind that shit = hit. It will make it think that shitting is a wrong behavior. So it's starting to eat shit!!!! Dogs will think that if they eliminate the "evidence", they will not be beaten.

I hope everyone will remember not to hit dogs because they defecate and urinate. This is a very wrong demonstration.

How to Correctly Correct Dog's Poop

Most of them are the third reason, behavior problems. The same is true of glutinous rice. When I was a child, I did not experience premature training. At that time I purchased a fence and monitoring, decided to use a few days to correct. I used a fence to block the toilet door, and then installed monitoring in the toilet. The fence surrounds it and can see that the outside is not so scared. A small cage was placed in the toilet to allow glutinous rice to stay in the toilet for a few days. The cage was not about me just letting it rest in it. The monitor was installed so that I could find it defecating and peeing for the first time.

First of all, we must master the rules of eating, drinking and scattering of dogs. The specific words will definitely vary from dog to dog, and people's habits will change with people's time. Usually after waking up, after eating, after exercise. At the time when glutinous rice may defecate and urinate, I will pay special attention to monitoring, especially defecation. Because I also need to correct its habit of eating shit. In the monitoring, I saw that it would go to the toilet to give snacks and verbal encouragement, and then clean up the excrement. After 3 days like this, I let the glutinous rice out of the toilet, and it began to take the initiative to go to the toilet to pee and shit. Of course, it is still necessary to reward the first time. Rewards can not only make glutinous rice think of pooping in the toilet can get snacks. It can also let it slowly realize that there is a reward when the baby is there, and it does not need to eat it. Of course, after being released, I occasionally urinated outside once or twice. I did not criticize it, but cleaned and disinfected it for the first time. Basically, glutinous rice can defecate and urinate at fixed points in the toilet in a week, and get rid of the bad habit of eating excrement.

Dogs can be trained to go to the toilet outside when they are 4.5 months old, of course they can be trained earlier. Go to the toilet outside diligently, go out 2-3 times a day. Basically, when you get up in the morning and take your dog out for a little exercise, you will immediately poop. Sometimes it is likely to be disturbed by the environment, such as noise or someone playing ball nearby. Be sure to find a quiet environment for your dog to slowly adapt to going to the toilet outside. If you want him to poop in a place like the grass, you must bring it to such an environment at the beginning and give instructions and rewards.

There is another situation where glutinous rice will defecate randomly, more precisely because it is too unwell to go to the toilet or pull outside. Gastrointestinal discomfort caused by changing food too quickly or other reasons may not be able to resist pulling because of discomfort. This situation we want to give the dog care and attention. Can be fasting, feeding probiotics, etc.

Summary

1: Don't hit the dog just because he urinates, so the dog has a high probability of eating excrement.

2: When the dog pees and defecates in the wrong place, please treat it calmly, clean it immediately, and remove the smell.

3: Master the rules of eating, drinking and scattering your dog.

4: the dog in the right place to poop and pee the first time to give a reward. In short, the snack method is good.

5: If the dog does not have diarrhea in the right place due to gastrointestinal discomfort, remember not to be angry, give the dog some probiotics and fast.

6: Dogs must pick up excrement when pulling poops outside. Do yourself a civilized shoveling officer, dogs will have a better living environment.

As long as the shoveling officials are willing to take the time and mind, give more rewards instead of punishment, and guide the dogs correctly. Especially in the puppy period, bad habits and bad habits can be well corrected. Come on, shovelers!
