How to stop dogs from changing this bad habit? 》
● 1. Cut off the opportunity: clean the dog immediately after defecation, so that it has no chance to eat shit. If you can't know when it will defecate, put on a mask so that it can't eat shit or may be locked in a cage. The gap at the bottom of the cage should be large enough so that shit won't get stuck in the cage. When walking the dog, you must use a dog chain to prevent it from eating shit again after defecation, and then walk away to praise it.
●2. reprimand and stop in time: dogs should be severely stopped from eating shit and corporal punishment is not allowed, otherwise it will be counterproductive. Don't be punished after eating shit, because the dog doesn't know why you are punished.
●3. Encouragement: praise the dog after defecation, encourage and seduce it with food, make it forget to eat stool and slowly change its habits.
●4. Add a smell that dogs don't like to the feces: After the dog defecates, add very spicy peppers, bitter medicines or smells that your dog doesn't like. What smell your dog doesn't like depends on the owner. Every dog is different, so you might want to try it.
●5. Order to stop: This is only useful if the dog is trained to obey. It must be able to understand your commands, such as no, sit down and wait. When the dog has finished defecation, order it to do some obedience actions to divert its attention and prevent it from eating shit.
●6. Adding substances that dogs don't like after digestion to food: There are some business cases abroad that are added to dog food that has eaten feces. If a dog eats its own feces, it must be added to its dog food. I don't know if there are similar products in Chinese mainland, but the effect is still being evaluated. Some people provide monosodium glutamate, garlic, pumpkin and so on. After digestion, it is added to dog food, and the feces have a bad smell, so dogs don't like it.
●7. Adding digestive AIDS: Some people think that adding digestive enzymes can help digestion, thus preventing stool eating caused by digestive problems. This effect has not been confirmed in the study. You can choose one or more of the above methods at the same time. If other symptoms appear at the same time, it is necessary to consider whether it may be caused by internal diseases, take it to the hospital for examination, and find the real reason for treatment. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The above education for dogs is not to make you hit hard, but to give a verbal warning, or to pat your ass symbolically or knock on the ground with a newspaper, making a sound that scares the dog and telling him not to do that again. Remember never to hit it, because dogs have a good memory. Don't let it associate "terrible" or "beaten" with its "biting, biting" or some unhappy things. As long as it is connected, it will be full of anger, it will think that this "thing" is complaining to you, and then sometimes it will stop biting in front of you, but once you leave it, it will kill it until it knows it is useless. Just like a child's rebellious psychology, the more you fight, the more you fight, and the more you fight, the more you will fight, and it will never change! You should educate him patiently and make him feel that this will only make you unhappy. You should know that the owner is all dogs, and everything dogs do is to please their owners. Once the dog understands that the owner is angry and unhappy, he will not do it in the future. Also, you should know that the dog may bite something to attract your attention, except its tusks, because it thinks that as long as it bites, you will pay attention to it immediately. I think it is necessary to take care of it and care about it. Don't let it be lonely. Spend more time with me at ordinary times. Only by communicating more can we get to know each other better and get along better. My dog is Labrador, especially smart, almost refined, good at winking at people, two-faced, haha. Almost five years. I remember it used to do this when it was a child. After educating it, it won't be like this again when it grows up and understands. I hope these can help you! Treat it patiently and carefully, and you will find that besides some minor troubles, it actually brings you happiness and happiness!
