Toilet training is also one of the important topics for pet owners. Especially when raised indoors, if the dog is not properly trained to use the toilet, the dog will defecate and urinate on the ground, which is very troublesome. Some people think that if the dog's toilet smells like urine, the dog will go to the toilet there. There are also ammonia-smelling "poop liquids" sold in the world.

But in fact, this method of using newspapers or toilet paper stained with urine odor to make dogs remember the location of the toilet will almost always fail miserably, because dogs do not like to pee in places that are stained with the smell of their own urine. Even if the surface of the newspaper and toilet paper has dried, leaving only a slight odor, the dog will rely on its sharp sense of smell to smell the odor and think "this place is dirty" and will go to other places to excrete. So how do you go about potty training? The secret lies in your dog’s habits.

For wild dogs, after giving birth in the nest, the newborn puppies cannot urinate or defecate on their own, so the mother dog will use her tongue to stimulate the groin of the puppies to promote urination. At the same time, the female dog will lick the puppies' feces and urine clean to avoid soiling the nest. If the smell of urine and poop is left, it will become a sign of predators. Therefore, when a puppy learns to urinate and defecate on its own, it will excrete in a place far away from the nest. This is the basic habit of dogs.

The editor of Pet.com said that from this habit, we can understand that the toilet should be as far away from the dog’s den as possible. "But when you raise a dog at home, where is the nest?" Some people will definitely have this question. Nowadays, many people keep it on the balcony, in the courtyard or inside the home, so that it can move freely in the space. Few people care about the dog. Make a decent dog house so that the dog can rest peacefully in it.

Whether the kennel is set up or not has a lot to do with the puppy's toilet training. Arrange a kennel for the dog, and then set the toilet a little away from the kennel. When the dog leaves the kennel, you must take it to the toilet first and let it go to the toilet. For a while, even if you say "Hey! Pee quickly!" to the dog, it may not be able to urinate. Therefore, you can surround the toilet with wire and put it inside. Keep the dog in the wire fence until it completes its excretion, and then let it out after it has completed its excretion.

Normally, it can move freely indoors, but when the owner goes out or goes to bed at night, it still needs to be locked in the dog house. As soon as you leave the dog house, you must take it to the toilet to relieve itself. After constant practice, the dog will develop a conditioned reflex and will urinate and defecate immediately as soon as it is taken to the toilet. When this can be done, there will be no need for barbed wire.

As mentioned before, there is no point in using things that do not smell like dog urine. Therefore, it is necessary to change the dog's urine with clean newspapers and mats immediately after excretion. This is correct toilet education. I believe you have already understood that the key point is to separate the dog house and the toilet. When the dog leaves the dog house, take it to the toilet immediately to restrict it from this series of actions.

Dog trainers believe that when toilet education fails, one hundred percent of the reason is that dogs are allowed to move freely indoors. Let the dog in the houseThe "no fixed place to live" inside actually means that they lack their own private space. Some people may think that allowing dogs to move freely in the room can reduce stress. In fact, on the contrary, the lack of a safe place to rest can cause dogs to experience great mental stress.

For a dog, the entire room is its territory, so it must maintain its instinct of vigilance and defense, otherwise its territory will be violated. Therefore, once a stranger comes to the home, such as a postman, gas delivery, newspaper delivery, etc., the dog will keep barking and even attack. If you give it a safe nest from an early age, the dog can ignore it even if the doorbell rings or even thunder.

Some people believe that when a dog urinates anywhere, it must be punished immediately, press its head to smell the smell, and teach it a lesson so that it knows not to urinate anywhere. But in fact, this is a big mistake. Although the dog is punished, it is impossible for it to understand the truth of human beings and reflect on the fact that it cannot urinate anywhere. The dog will think that "if he pees, he will be beaten and scolded, so he must endure it all the time." Therefore, forcing the dog to smell his own urine may have a temporary effect, but in fact it is just because the dog feels "too scary" "I just tolerate it. After a while, I will defecate everywhere again."

The correct method is to take the dog to another room immediately, and the owner silently cleans the urine to remove the smell. Most of the reasons why the dog cannot learn the correct size are caused by allowing the dog to move freely in the room without a fixed dog house. Definitely finding the cause is the fundamental solution.
