learning to defecate at fixed points is a move, but it also requires strong patience and endurance from the shoveling officer to teach dogs to urinate at fixed points ~ and the younger the dog, the easier it is, and the older the dog, the more time it may take. Let's get started ~
Preface
1. Every dog should have a fixed place to urinate. First, for the sake of environmental hygiene, 20 to avoid accidents can not walk the dog, the dog hold urine, is not conducive to health.
2. stop your angry hand because the dog defecated everywhere! It is absolutely not advisable to take the dog to the place where he has urinated and let him smell the smell and beat him!! This is not a proper way to communicate with dogs.
Principle of fixed-point defecation
Presumably this word is not unfamiliar-"foot pad memory". Point peeing is actually using the dog's foot pad memory so that they can find the place where we want them to pee.
one sentence to explain what we have to do: "catch the signal that the dog wants to pee, then take them to the right place, let them pee after, give them a reward. Let the dog understand that it's okay to pee here, and there's a reward after peeing!"
Step 1: Prepare Supplies
1. dog toilet a
our household is a small dog toilet with high color value, large area and easy cleaning ~
changing urine pad is also extremely convenient:
2. Xiao Pei intelligent odor purifier (optional)
odor purifier I put above the toilet, it will capture the dog to the toilet, spray odor molecules and negative ions, decompose the elements in the odor, solve the odor from the source, make the home fresher ~
is really a faster battery, so it is recommended to put it in a place where dogs do not often go.
3. snack bag (available or not, it is more convenient to have)
after the dog has finished defecating and urinating, he must be rewarded in time. if there is no time to prepare snacks at this time, he will miss a training opportunity. So I hung a snack bag next to the dog toilet, which contained snacks at any time. I could reward them at any time and learn to defecate at fixed points faster.
I am using this dexas snack bag with a buckle at the back, which is just stuck on the fence, and this opening is also very good for taking out snacks.
4. fence (necessary)
in the early stage of learning fixed-point defecation, be sure to prepare a fence, the size is just enough to surround the dog toilet.
I chose this fence that can be combined in any way to facilitate later expansion. The height must be such that the dog cannot jump out or take the top, otherwise it will be very tired.
5. replace the urine pad
when the dog learns to defecate at a fixed point, the urine pad will become a necessity in the home, basically at the rhythm of one sheet a day. And remember to change the urine pad frequently, one is to prevent bacteria, the other is that our dog will not continue to urinate on the slow urine pad..
the urine pad selected by our family is also made by Xiao Pei, which can perfectly fit the dog toilet, and absorbs quickly and infiltrate, with large absorption. The disadvantage is that there is no trace after urination, and you have to pick it up to know if there is urine, but it can also be said to be an advantage, and it does not affect the appearance..
Step 2: Start training.
First of all, arrange the location of defecation and urination, choose a "feng shui treasure place", put on the dog toilet, lay the urine mat, surround the fence, and prepare snacks to be OK ~
Then start observing first. If you know enough about your dog, you can skip this step.
observe when the dog pees. Generally speaking, it is to get up in the morning, after meals, office workers may be caged when they come home from work and so on.
you can start work after you have probably mastered the rules of dog defecation and urination.
After the dogs have the intention to go to the toilet, carry the dogs into the toilet until they urinate and give rewards immediately after they are released. Is not very simple!
use their foot pad memory to link the feeling of the foot pad with the reward, so as to learn that urinating in the place of the foot pad will be rewarded. in order to reward dogs, they will actively urinate here, thus learning to defecate at fixed points.
But in fact, you may keep him until 2 or 3 o'clock in the evening, or for a week can not succeed in giving the right reward. Or put up with them being locked in and screaming, or you waited for hours and finally couldn't bear to let them out, and then peed outside and fell short. This is what actually happened, so training defecation requires a strong heart and endurance!!!
This is the angry back of the big dog after he was locked in..
In fact, the real method is just a short paragraph above, but it is still very difficult to implement, and it needs to be tried by the shoveling officer himself.
think about the pain of cleaning excrement and urine after going home every day. how much burden can be relieved by a little patience and you can survive!!
finally there will be a puppy who urinates at such a fixed point ~
Some small tips.
1. What if the dog doesn't pee and keeps barking?
You can let them out for a small walk and they may pee faster. But remember that it must be small, otherwise you will not be able to keep up with the rhythm of his urine and fall short.
2. Learn how to do after fixed point or unstable?
At this time, you can use the "slot machine" principle to give the dog a probabilistic reward, sometimes a big reward, sometimes a small reward, sometimes no reward, so that the dog for the probabilistic prize, to do repetitive movements, that is, fixed-point defecation. This will allow them to stable fixed-point defecation.
3. Again, don't beat and scold your dog at any time. Train positively and use rewards instead of beating and scolding!!
P.S.: The above is a personal experience and is for reference only.
