Resolving Your Dogs House Training Issues

2010-03-22T18:46:00.000-07:00

The best home training uses the puppies personal instincts to prevent soiling its bed to train the dog exactly where and exactly where not to eradicate. That's the basis behind crate instruction, where the canine is confined to its crate in the absence from the proprietor, and crate training, in which the dog is confined to a little area of the home. In essence, the crate, or the room, becomes the pet dog's den. Dogs are naturally very clean animals, and so they attempt their best to avoid utilizing their dens as toilets.

This type of instruction usually works very well, both for puppies and for older dogs. Problems with this type of toilet instruction are generally the result of not understanding the signals the dog is sending, not getting consistent with feeding times, or attempting to rush the procedure.

Whilst the house training procedure could be sped up somewhat by consistently praising the dog and rewarding it for toileting within the proper place, some dogs cannot be rushed via this important process. It's always greatest to house train the canine properly the very first time than to go back and retrain a problem dog.

If your dog continues to soil the einen area after house instruction, one of the most likely reason is that the owner has left the dog in the den for too lengthy. Another reason might be how the den region is too big. In this case, the very best strategy would be to make the einen area smaller or to take the dog to the toilet area more regularly.

If your canine soils the bed that has been provided in the den region, it's most likely because the owner has left the canine there for too long, and also the canine had an understandable accident. Or it could be how the dog has not yet adopted this region as the bed. In addition, urinary tract infections and other medical conditions can also cause puppies to soil their beds. It's crucial to have the dog thoroughly checked out by a veterinarian to rule out any medical difficulties.

One other purpose for home training accidents that numerous individuals overlook is boredom. Dogs who are bored frequently drink large amounts of water and therefore must urinate a lot more regularly than you might believe.

Dog Training Basics – Preventing Unwanted Urination

2010-01-24T19:17:00.000-08:00

I had written this article on unwanted dog urination and now it has become a hot article around the net with many dog websites and article directories publishing this article. Though I had myself not posted this article earlier to my blog, I though I might just well add it due to its popularity. So here goes:

Problems with inappropriate urination are some of the most commonly encountered according to canine friend owners. As a matter of fact, inappropriate urination as well as defecation may be the most frequently cited cause that lovers surrender such an animals into shelters.

Till you can tackle problems with inappropriate urination, you must realize that the exact reason of the issue. There are lots of logic behind why most dogs drop control over its bladders, as well as it is important to understand the actual root cause of the trouble till could be adequately addressed.

Condition #1 – Excitement Urination

Canine animals often urinate when they become overly excited, and dogs that are otherwise perfectly housebroken sometimes show their excitement by dribbling urine when greeting you excitedly. It is normal for some canine to urinate when they get excited, and this can be a particular issue for many older pet.

A lot of excitement induced urination occurs in young puppies, and it is caused by a lack of bladder control. The puppy may not even know he is urinating, and punishment will simply confuse him. Becoming angry with the puppy will quickly cause excitement urination to morph into submissive urination, thus compounding the issue. As the puppy gets older and develops better bladder control, this type of excitement urination should disappear.

The best cure for excitement urination is prevention. Preventing your dog from becoming over excited is the best way to control this main issue behavior. If your dog is excited by a particular stimulus or situation, it is important to repeatedly expose him to that situation until it no longer causes excessive excitement.

Condition #2 – Submissive Urination

Submissive urination is usually a actual part of group habit in animals like dogs and wolves. The submissive member of the pack shows his or her submissiveness by lowering itself and urinating. Since canine animals are pack canines, they may show their submissiveness toward their master, which they will regard as the group leader, through exhibiting this submissive urination.

Dogs who exhibit submissive urination are usually showing their insecurity. Unsocialized and previously abused canines often exhibit submissive urination. These dogs need to be shown that there are more appropriate ways to express their submissive status, such as shaking hands or licking the owner’s hand.

The best way to deal with submissive urination problems is often to ignore the urination. Trying to reassure the dog can give the mistaken impression that you approve of the behavior, while scolding your dog can make the submissive urination worse.

Correcting problems with submissive urination needs to be directed at developing the pups self-confidence as well as teaching him alternative ways to show his admiration. Helping the dog in order to lift his paw, sit on command, or similar obedience commands, might be a great way so that you direct the dog’s admiration in a much more appropriate course.

Difficulty with urination are not often quick in order to handle, but one must always seem consistent, and also to always encourage good behavior on the part of the dog. While urination problems do occur, it's often a good idea for you to first rule out some medical ailments that could be leading to such problems. Health issues such as bladder infections is usually the root cause of problems with unwanted urination.

Just after your dog's health complications have been ruled out, it is important to determine why you have the situation, and treat it appropriately. Though it may be tempting for you to punish the dog for inappropriate elimination, this can only confuse and also further intimidate him.

Why Condemn The Pit Bulls?

2010-01-20T05:51:00.000-08:00

The recent news item that a man, Johny Wilson at Washington Heights was killed by his daughter’s pit bulls is tragic indeed. The dogs were owned by Wilson’s daughter who it is believed were breeding the pit bulls and selling them.

Wilson was badly mauled and his ears were bitten off by one or many of the pit bulls. While the story may be true and may be a freak incident, the huge coverage given to the story on various channels and newspapers have not done much to the reputation of the pit bulls.

It has evoked very strong response from dog lovers all over. As per one of the neighbors of Wilsons “They were very manageable dogs, I would've never looked at them and thought they would attack someone because she had them under control."

There have been very strong comments from viewers who are also dog lovers and owners of pit bulls. Comments from the pit bulls being very protective of their children, to criticism of the gory manner in which the pit bull dogs were depicted are published everywhere.

While pit bulls may be aggressive dogs the depictions of pit bulls as vicious breeds have come in for heavy criticism from all over the place. People who raise Pit Bulls, American Pit Bulls and Pit bull Terriers have nothing but praise for their loving nature, and their eagerness to please their masters. The Pit Bull terriers are said to be extremely loyal, good natured and affectionate family pets. It is an extremely courageous and intelligent guard dog. They will fight to their death to protect their owners.

It is indeed sad to see such a dog being suddenly in the eye of a storm with negative incidents being reported all over. The Wilsons death will forever remain a mystery as we will never know what the provocations were for the attack. But it would be wrong to condemn an entire breed for a stray incidence. So are there failings in humans but do we condemn all and sundry as a murderous race?

Dogs To The Rescue At Haiti

2010-01-14T21:21:00.000-08:00

I talked about the dogs being mans best friend in my last post. Sad news comes from earthquake ravaged Haiti that hundreds of sniffer search dogs from around the world have been pressed into service to locate survivors and help in the rescue. Teams of canine handlers with their sniffers from China, France, Germany, spain and Russia to name some of the leading countries in the operation are landing in Haiti. It is an amazing site to watch doctors, rescue specialists, psychologists line up at the airport arrivals along with their labradors, golden retrievers and german shepherds. However the public were asked to keep away from petting the dogs and distracting them from their stressful duties.

Need we say that the primary work and credit of digging up survivors goes to our loving friendly dogs. Only then the rescue teams of doctors will take over treatment.

Thank god (spelled in the reverse 'dog') for giving us our dogs.
