The dog has just arrived at home, and there are several things that need to be done, and you will be

From breed selection to the care of dogs in old age, every shovel officer needs a comprehensive strategy for dog rearing.

No matter how intelligent and cute dogs are, they still retain their predatory nature, and they are social animals and are accustomed to obeying the leader of the group. If the leader dog is weak and incompetent, the dog will find a way to replace it. Therefore, after the shovel officer brings the dog home, he should use the dog's nature to train it to obey orders, let it understand its own status, and establish the authority of the shovel officer, instead of spoiling them at will.

Delineate the dog's activity area

In the dog's heart, its territory represents its status, if it can go in and out of the shovel officer's room at will, and sleep in the bed, then it will feel that its status at home is equal to the shovel officer, or even surpass the shovel officer. Therefore, after bringing the dog to the house, it is necessary to set rules for it to understand where it can go and where it cannot enter without permission, and if it violates it, it will be criticized and punished.

In addition, do not let the dog lie down in the aisles, stairs and other places that people often come and go at home, otherwise it will take it for granted that it can rest here, and may even regard these places as its own territory.

At the same time, do not allow the dog to rest on high furniture such as chairs and tables at home, because in the dog's heart, the leader who occupies a high position is the leader, and usually the leader of the dog pack is looking down and observing the surrounding situation from a position above the ground. If they are allowed to stand on a chair or table, they will think that their family status has been improved, which will not be conducive to training the dog's obedience. When the shovel officer leads the dog out, let it walk behind his side, not in front, especially when entering the door, let the dog understand that the owner should enter the door first, and follow up later. If the dog violates this principle, punish it appropriately so that he understands what to do.

Let the dog develop a good habit of regular work and rest

When the dog is a child, the sleep time will be relatively long, and the play time will be relatively short, which is conducive to cultivating its regular work and rest habits. The shovel officer can train the dog to develop the same schedule as himself when the dog is small. For example, soothe the dog before going to bed at night, stop the dog when it wants to play, and wake the dog up in the morning when you wake up to start moving. Play with your dog during the day and take your dog out for a walk. After a period of deliberate training, the dog's work and rest time will gradually be synchronized with that of the shovel officer.

Let the dog develop the habit of sleeping and eating in a fixed place

Choose a dry, comfortable, and open place to place the kennel and kennel as a fixed resting place for the dog, so that he understands that this is the only place in the house where he sleeps and rests. Similarly, the food bowl and water basin where the dog eats should also be placed in a fixed place, so that it can develop the habit of going to a fixed place to eat.

When training the dog to have a regular schedule, it should be noted that the dog's toilet location should not be with the place to sleep and eat, and the dog toilet can be placed in the bathroom or other ventilated places at home, and the position is fixed, so that they can avoid urinating and defecating in the open after forming a habit.
