As more and more people keep dogs, dogs are lost more and more frequently. Many of the lost dogs are stolen by unscrupulous people and sold as dog meat. Therefore, as dog owners, we must train our dogs not to pick up food on the street and refuse to be fed by strangers.

But we all know that dogs are naturally lively and curious animals. When we go out for a walk, it will always sniff here and there habitually. They will also pick up food scattered on the street and eat it. But this behavior of dogs is actually very dangerous. Because food scattered on the street, even if it is non-toxic, will become dirty because it has been dropped on the street. And many foods may have spoiled, which can cause the pet to get sick if the dog eats it. In addition, some food is thrown by unscrupulous people to poison dogs, which is a killer that seriously threatens the life of dogs.

Pet dog training

So how should we train pet dogs to keep them away from food scattered on the streets?

Dogs are sensitive and intelligent animals. When you clearly stop it from doing inappropriate behavior, it will feel that this is not what it should do. Therefore, when taking the dog out for a walk, if you find that the dog is trying to pick up food scattered on the street, the owner should immediately criticize it severely and say "No!" At the same time, the owner should tug on the dog leash and tap it with his fingers. Its mouth, in this way, promptly stops the behavior of the pet dog. If the dog can show that it ignores the food, the owner should immediately encourage and praise the dog, and at the same time pet it affectionately.

Note:

The owner's tone of voice to stop the dog's behavior should be short and strong. When pulling on the dog leash, pay attention to the strength used. For dogs that react violently to food, you can use slightly more strength. At the same time, praising the dog must be timely.

Food refusal training must start from usual times. When feeding your dog, you must train it not to eat food on the ground. If once your dog develops the habit of picking up food from the ground, it will take a lot of effort to get the dog to change it.

For dogs with good basic obedience training, good results can be achieved after several pet dog training sessions. If your dog is not well trained in basic obedience training, in addition to using the above pet training methods, you can also add some sugar-coated bullets.

Sugar-coated bullet training method

This training method requires choosing a venue with fewer pedestrians. Because it is necessary to ensure that training will not be interrupted. The dog owner first asks a friend to place some meat soaked in chili oil on the floor.Chunks, or pieces of meat stuffed with chili peppers. When the owner takes the dog by, the dog will feel very spicy after eating the meat with chili pepper. In this way, even the most greedy dog ​​will have a long memory.

Note:

The meat pieces containing chili peppers need to be covered with broth to cover up the smell of chili peppers, otherwise the dog will not be fooled if he smells the smell of chili peppers.
