It is very annoying for dogs to urinate everywhere. Not only does it make a mess in the house, but it also smells very bad, so we need to train Chihuahuas to go to the toilet in a fixed place. Chihuahuas are very smart. As long as they are taught patiently, there will be no problem. Let’s learn with the editor how to train a Chihuahua to go to the toilet!

Chihuahua

The first step is that after the Chihuahua gets used to going to the toilet on the newspaper at the door, you can take the newspaper away. When the Chihuahua wants to go to the toilet, he will go to the door to find the newspaper. After seeing this behavior, you must immediately go outside for him. bathroom. Then you can first select 5 basically fixed times in a day to take the little Chihuahua out. It is best to choose a time 20-30 minutes after the Chihuahua has eaten. If the Chihuahua wants to go to the toilet outside the 5 hours, bring him in. These will be extra no more than 5 times. After a long time, the Chihuahua will know that you have to use you to give him the toilet command outside the five times you ask him to go to the toilet until the task is completed. After finishing, it is best to touch him and give you verbal encouragement and praise (such as: good boy, good boy, etc...) to let him know that he did the right thing.

Since Chihuahuas have a biological clock, it is best to keep the five times relatively fixed. In this way, the Chihuahua will realize that it needs to go to the toilet first. After the Chihuahua can fully utilize these 5 times to complete its excretion task and does not go to the toilet at home, it can continue to do so for a while, and then slowly increase the time from 5 times to 3 times. Generally, if the Chihuahua is still young, if you want to feed him 4 times a day, bring him in 5 times, go once after getting up in the morning, and then bring him in half an hour after each meal, a total of 5 times. When the Chihuahua adapts to going to the toilet outside, and as it grows older, the frequency of feeding it becomes 3 times a day, then the number of times it goes out can be reduced to 3 times. This can be once in the morning when you get up, once half an hour after lunch, and then go to bed. Last time.

Step 2: After that, your Chihuahua may be able to go to the toilet regularly. At the beginning of the training, you need to remind the Chihuahua. Take the Chihuahua out and only give the Chihuahua a maximum of 5 minutes to go to the toilet. If it does not move for 5 minutes, put it away. Take it home and put it in the cage immediately to let the Chihuahua know that if he doesn't go to the toilet outside, he will have no chance until you let him in next time.

There are still some places that everyone should pay attention to. The Chihuahua can completely hold it in at home until you take him out to defecate. Please put the Chihuahua in the cage. But this does not mean that you should lock up your Chihuahua 24 hours a day. Chihuahuas generally do not go to the toilet where they sleep, so the space in the cage is only large enough for the Chihuahua to turn around and sleep. If the cage is too big, the Chihuahua will go to the toilet anywhere in the cage except where he lies, and it will be troublesome to develop a habit.

It is recommended that you buy a cage that the Chihuahua can use when it becomes an adult. ChihuahuaWhen the dog is young, stuff the cage with cardboard boxes, etc., leaving only a place for the Chihuahua dog to sleep. Then as the Chihuahua dog grows, gradually take out the cartons. In this way, there is no need to buy many dog ​​cages for the Chihuahua as it grows. After the Chihuahua has eaten, the Chihuahua must be put into the cage. This will prevent the Chihuahua from urinating everywhere, and secondly, after the Chihuahua has finished eating It is not easy for him to do strenuous activities, which is not good for his stomach.

Wait half an hour after the meal and take him in to go to the toilet. After going to the toilet, you can let him go in and play for a while. Then put him in the cage until the next time you take him to the toilet. This method is suitable for newspaper period and outside toilet training. If you want to let him out and play with him during the period, you should pay attention to see if he wants to go to the toilet. If he does, take him to the toilet immediately. place.

Generally speaking, Chihuahuas will be more tolerant (holding back) after surgery (that is, after becoming immature). Small Chihuahuas are not very tolerant, so they must be restrained by a cage. And bring him in often. Ha, it’s just like people, but I don’t know if I will become incontinent again in old age. I won’t know until my Chihuahua gets old, and I will tell you then.

These are the step-by-step training methods for training my Chihuahua. The Chihuahua has completed all the above training when it is 6 months old. It knows that it can go to the toilet only when it is outside. It can also be left outside the cage and left alone. Now that it is one year old, it can be taken outside to the toilet twice a day. It’s okay, so I usually don’t keep it in a cage at home.

There are many other ways to teach Chihuahuas to go to the toilet. Please refer to this method. It is the most troublesome time when the Chihuahuas are young, but after being taught well, the benefits will last a lifetime. You will feel that the hard work was worth it and you developed a lot of feelings while training him.

Step 3: I heard from a dog trainer that generally small Chihuahua dogs will excrete about 30 minutes after eating or about 15 minutes after drinking water. You can pay special attention at this time. If you find your Chihuahua sniffing everywhere on the ground, please be highly vigilant and find a place to go to the toilet. In addition, after Chihuahua wakes up in the morning, it usually excretes once (including PEE and poop). So when you see Chihuahua wake up, put it to the toilet. Carry him to the place where you want him to go to the toilet, let him stay there for a while, and at the same time, use a special tone to say "hurry up" and other commands to the Chihuahua (must insist on doing this, and use this often even when he gets bigger) The Chihuahua will really understand the password and will slowly understand that this password is to urge him to go to the toilet)

Step 4: The little Chihuahua urinates a lot, so most people like to let him go to the toilet on a diaper pad or newspaper first. Some Chihuahuas will use paper changing pads, but some hate them very much. The Chihuahua will tear the diaper pad to pieces. So I ended up using newspapers.

At first, the Chihuahua didn’t know that the newspaper was for him to urinateSo I used a newspaper to absorb his poop, and then put the one that absorbed the poop on top of many newspapers (about 78). Don’t throw it away yet. Next time you see a picture of a Chihuahua, pick him up in time. He puts it on the newspaper. He will smell the newspaper that has been dried and guard it. If he runs out, catch him and put him on the newspaper. You can spread the newspaper over a larger area at first, and then slowly reduce the size of the newspaper) After that, all you have to do is to sniff whenever you see the Chihuahua going to the toilet (sniffing everywhere) or going to the toilet (incorrect places). Pick him up immediately and put him on the newspaper.
