To a toilet face a schooling problem both beginners, and experienced dog breeders. On the Internet the set of ways of schooling including with use of physical force and punishments is presented. But what way is the most effective and painless?
Spravleny needs — needs of nature
In fauna it is quite natural to celebrate need at once as soon as it appeared. However, the puppy who got to the house is forced to live by rules of the world of people. Owners of dogs are not able to allow them to celebrate need in "not put place" therefore they are obliged to accustom dogs to a toilet.
Fortunately, in this question an ally is the innate sense of cleanliness at dogs.
Whether everything dogs are easily accustomed to a toilet?
Unfortunately, not all dogs are accustomed to a toilet. Reasons:
- The puppy was acquired at "puppyish factory". So experienced dog breeders call manufacturers who produce a large number of dogs (usually small breeds as they make for more profit), and support them in bad conditions. At such breeders of a dog and puppies sit in cages, celebrate need under themselves therefore they did not develop feeling of cleanliness. Even to accustom such dogs to a film and a tray very difficult.
- The bad habits imparted by the manufacturer. Some manufacturers, trying to save on diapers, accustom puppies to celebrate need on rags. Subsequently, the puppy falls into a difficult situation: having seen similar texture, he will want to celebrate need on it. Under a sight the clothes left on a floor, towels which fell down from the dryer, pillows, furniture can get.
- Lack of full completion of process of schooling to a toilet. Some owners, after their dog couple of days celebrated need only on the street or only on a diaper, consider that she is already accustomed, and cease to support desirable behavior. However, it far not so. Process of schooling can be completed only if the dog went to a toilet without misses more 2kh months.
Process of schooling to a toilet
The golden rule of training and education of dogs says: "support good and do not support bad". But how this rule works in schooling of a puppy to a toilet?
Everything is rather simple: it is necessary to praise a puppy when he celebrates need in the right place and not to assume that he did it in not put place. It is senseless to abuse a puppy for misses. First, he cannot connect "celebrated need in not put place — received punishment". He perceives it as "the owner saw a pool or a small group — began to swear". And what usually people perceive as repentance, only reaction of dogs to anger of the owner. Secondly, when the puppy defecates in not put place, he already receives strongly a reinforcement as he lightens.
In practice schooling of a puppy to a toilet, according to the golden rule of training and education of dogs, looks so:
- The puppy has to be under supervision all the time: or houses, or on the street. If it is impossible, then it is necessary to leave it in limited space: a cage, an arena, the closed room in which there are its bowls and a berth.
- When the puppy celebrates need in "right place", it is necessary to support such behavior with a praise and delicacy. As it is noted above, sense of relief already is a reinforcement, and delicacy and a praise will enhance this effect repeatedly.
- Being at home, the puppy has to be under active supervision. Active supervision is an interaction of a dog and the owner: game, studying teams, caress, etc. Such supervision will allow to react quickly when the puppy wants to celebrate need. Passive supervision, on the contrary, has reactive character. That is the owner, going about the own business, will react only when the puppy descends in a toilet in not put place.
The puppy tries to celebrate need in not put place: what should I do?
If the puppy suddenly gave up all affairs and began to sniff, in search of the place, or already sits down to celebrate need, then it is necessary to interrupt it it is necessary to carry away in the place: on a diaper, in a tray or on the street. There it needs to be held until he does not celebrate need, and then to praise.
It is possible to interrupt a puppy by means of cotton in palms, having run up to it as it is possible closer. Thus you should not frighten him strongly: the effect can be the return.
The puppy suffers on the street to the last: what should I do?
Some puppies can do not celebrate need on the street because they simply forget. The street is full of various interesting smells, sounds, impressions. In such cases before going to explore the world with a puppy, it is necessary to find a quiet secluded place for a toilet.
Completion of walk right after a need spravleniye a puppy becomes a mistake. Then he understands that he the will longer suffer, the will longer walk. If to begin active walk after a spravleniye a puppy of need, then it will become an additional award.
Having seen the scheme given above, there will always be the one who will tell: "and I just punished the puppy physically for misses, and he ceased". At such owners of a dog begin celebrates need in the put place on natural causes. And at the correct approach to schooling process it would occur much quicker.
