I believe that most dog owners feed their dogs indoors; at the same time, many friends bring their dogs home when they are several months old. If it is the above situation, here I want to teach you about dog indoor toilet training:
How to train a dog to go to the toilet indoors?
1. First determine a place to go to the toilet for the puppy. Choose a place in your home that makes it easier to clean, such as a toilet, bathroom, corner of the living room, or balcony. Then, spread newspapers at the designated place for the dog to defecate and wait for the dog to eat.
2. 10-20 minutes after feeding or after the activity - this is the golden period of dog toilet training - the dog owner can gently guide the dog to the toilet location, then close the door, Let it move within the space covered with newspapers, and continue to use words to encourage it to defecate.
3. Once the dog has the intention to defecate, please don't bother physically, but give verbal rewards at the first time. Such as Great! or Good!.
4. Because dogs are not so smart, they defecate directly on the newspaper for the first time---so sometimes you need to help the dog to defecate on one of the newspapers. You can wait a little longer, as long as the dog urinates, it will be the first successful time!
5. After it finishes excretion in the newspaper, please continue to give soft encouragement, and then You can stroke its head and back with your hands. The purpose is to make the dog like this behavior pattern, generate memory and be willing to repeat the behavior.
6. During training, if the dog can defecate on the newspaper, gradually reduce the number of newspapers, from the beginning to 4-5 sheets, slowly reduce to 2-3 sheets, and finally Reduce the number of newspapers to one block, and the dog will still go to the toilet in that position, which is basically ok.
7. Finally, the dog should try to repeat the above training program at a fixed time every day. In this way, the dog will slowly take the initiative to go to the toilet and defecate in the area of the newspaper.
The main points of indoor toilet training for dogs:
1. The way of encouragement is to prompt some customary passwords, such as lapapa, etc., do not change back and forth. This allows the dog to memorize these passwords in the toilet training.
2. In the early stage of training, after the dog finishes urinating and urinating, do not take away the newspapers stained with urine and feces immediately, so that it has enough time to remember the relationship between the place and the smell of urination and defecation. Use smells to help memorize results to make learning faster.
