EPET PAWS - EPET PAWS

Foreword

As soon as Xiaohua got home, she turned over the trash can at home. She didn't know what she was looking for, but she turned it out. It made the house a mess and stunk to high heaven. The little guy enjoyed it because he was just thinking about cleaning it at that time. He was not in the mood to take pictures. Xiaohua turned over the trash can between February and March. Fortunately, I stopped it quickly, otherwise he couldn't stay at home. Maybe everyone will go out and go through the trash can outside! Xiaohua doesn't go through the trash can now, but I went out to take a picture of someone else's dog going through the trash can.

Analysis of the causes of Xiaohua turning over the trash can

Many of the reasons

why Xiaohua turned over the trash can were that she was wandering when she was a child. She had no food and could only rely on her sense of smell to look for food everywhere. Outside, the trash can was the place where she got food. In order to eat, she could only turn over the trash can. In fact, she felt pitiful when she thought about it. In order to fill her stomach, she ate spoiled food. But she had to say that Xiaohua's sense of smell was very sensitive. When it smells the smell of food in the trash can, it will turn over. If it doesn't smell the smell of food, it won't turn over. So I found a solution to turn over the trash can.

Solve the problem from the source -- sealed trash can

Floret's sense of smell is very sensitive, four times that of human beings. Every time I pour garbage into the trash can, I will immediately tie the garbage bag. When it is hard to smell, if it is open, the little guy's head will reach in, and it is easy to eat spoiled food. In fact, we can use a closed trash can, so as to avoid dogs turning over the garbage. But Floret has its own tricks. He would hit it with his paws and knock the trash can over, so I didn't replace the trash can, I just kept the trash can sealed.

Solve from the sense of smell -- place food with pungent taste

Since the little flower has a keen sense of smell, then I take advantage of this, put the little guy's least favorite smell in the trash can, orange peel, every time the little flower smells the orange peel, it hides far away, small sample, let me catch the weakness, so there are all kinds of orange peel in my trash can, the little flower turns over the trash can several times, smells the orange peel, and immediately runs away, after all, through the knotted garbage bag. You can still smell it. That's it, little guy. Every time you want to flip, just think about it.

Solve the problem from the behavior -- no turning over the trash can

Although the little guy does not like the smell of orange peel, but this is not the ultimate solution, after all, a long time, there will be immune situation, smell may like, in order to let it not turn over the trash can, I must control the behavior, let it know that this is wrong, so I use the NO command, every time the flower is close to the trash can, I will say NO. And pat its buttocks in front of the trash can, let it back, if the little guy back, I will give food reward, if not back, oh, I will severely reprimand, let it know that close to the trash can is wrong, over time, the little guy will walk around the trash can.

But in the meantime, be sure to keep the person at home, put the trash can open, let it move, otherwise you can't catch it, training is useless. Dogs will not know that they have made mistakes, and they will feel that their owners are puzzled.

Xiaohua Ma Ma has something to say.

In fact, the behavior of turning over the trash can belongs to the dog's nature, inhibiting the nature is for the safety of the dog, after all, there are many bacteria in the trash can, if the dog eats it, it is easy to cause diarrhea and other conditions, so for the good of the dog, please correct it as soon as possible.
