Method 7: Training Akita dogs to use the toilet

1. Designate a place to urinate and defecate: Before taking the Akita puppy home, we need to find a place in advance, such as a corner or in the toilet. It must be specified well, and do not modify it easily. In the future, the Akita puppy will be trained to urinate and defecate in this designated place. At first, the Akita puppy is not used to it, and may have a temper, but it doesn't matter. You must stick to this location. It is best to stay away from the Akita dog for eating or den. As time goes by, the Akita puppy will gradually get used to it.

2. Induce Akita dogs to learn to urinate and defecate at designated points. Generally, dogs will defecate within 30 minutes after eating or waking up. Using this feature, we can observe the performance of Akita Inu puppies and then lure them. For example, we keep an eye on the Akita dog after a meal or when it wakes up. Once we find that the little Akita dog is making movements to urinate, such as turning in circles or sniffing around. When you observe this action occurring, immediately guide the Akita dog, such as half pushing and half pulling, or pulling and coaxing, to guide the puppy to the right place. At the same time, once the Akita dog urinates and defecates in the designated place, you must remember to encourage the dog, such as giving a favorite snack or a grain of beef or something to encourage it. Gradually, the Akita dog knows that it is correct to urinate here, and the good habit of urinating at a fixed point is developed.

In the future, it will only dare to secretly urinate and defecate when the owner is not paying attention. It can be trained in the future. It's troublesome. Therefore, when the little Akita dog pulls in the right place, the owner should give great encouragement! If the little Akita dog pulls in the wrong place, he only needs to say to the Akita dog in a slightly serious and louder tone: "No!", and then immediately hold the dog to the correct place. Just take it. At the same time, excrement in the wrong place must be cleaned immediately, and the area must be thoroughly deodorized using bleach and deodorizing spray. In order to prevent the Akita Inu puppy from smelling the previous smell next time and pooping in the same place again, it will not happen again in the future.Good to correct it.
