There is no standard answer to the question of teaching a golden retriever dog to defecate, because everyone’s situation is different, but the following three principles are necessary.

First, determine a place for the golden retriever to urinate and defecate

Before taking the puppy home, you must first find a place in advance. The dog will urinate and defecate here in the future and will not change it (the principle is very important!). It is best to keep this location far away from where the dog eats or dens, because dogs are actually very clean animals and do not like to urinate and defecate in places where they eat and sleep.

Second, induce the puppy to urinate at the designated spot

Puppies usually defecate within 30 minutes after waking up or eating. The usual method is to spread newspapers (or put a special toilet) in the place where you want them to defecate. You can put some dog drops on the newspaper (toilet). The dog's own urine or artificial feces inducers (I think artificial feces inducers are useless at all).

At the same time, wait for the dog to urinate (generally, dogs will have some specific preparation actions when they want to urinate, such as turning in circles~~sniffing here and there~~each dog has its own preparation actions), when you observe this When the movement occurs, guide it to the right place immediately. The guidance method can be half push~~half pull~~half hug~~half coax~~~ But don’t do it too hastily~~ or move too much or have too fierce attitude~~ .

Third, don’t beat or scold the golden retriever

Don't beat or scold the little golden retriever for urinating or defecating easily, otherwise the dog will think that urinating and defecating is a "wrong thing", and will only dare to poop secretly when the owner is not paying attention~~~ Then it will be troublesome to train! As a puppy When the dog poops in the right place, give it great encouragement! If it poops in the wrong place, just use a slightly serious dog tone (with the volume raised) to tell the dog: "No!", and then immediately carry the dog to the correct place to urinate. , the excrement in the wrong place must be cleaned up immediately, and the place must be thoroughly deodorized (bleach + deodorant spray) to prevent the dog from smelling the previous smell and pooping in the same place again next time~~ and so on. Let’s practice with the dog for a few days~~

Golden retrievers are very smart, and after a while they should be able to urinate and defecate at designated spots, but after learning, there is no guarantee that they will not make mistakes 100%! Because puppies are still young, sometimes they have mood problems~~ or His endurance skills are not as good as those of a big golden retriever, so he just pulls him off at any time~~ Don’t be too angry at this time~~ It’s normal (not driving in reverse). When he grows up, everything will be OK.
