How to train your dog to urinate and defecate in the bathroom? Just learn these key points well

Dogs urinate randomly is the most troublesome habit for owners. It is best to start helping them with fixed urination and defecation when they first arrive home, and they don’t have to worry about it for more than ten years.

How to train a dog to go to the toilet and urinate:

1. Prepare a dog toilet or urine pad to put it in the toilet at home, and do not have too much debris next to it.

Dogs are not born to know that they want to defecate on dog toilets or urine pads, and they need guidance from their owners. Put the dog toilet or urine pad in the toilet. It is best not to have any other debris next to the dog toilet to avoid disturbing the dog. In addition, do not place dog toilets or urine pads next to the dog kennel. Generally, clean dogs will not defecate next to the dog kennel.

2. When the dog just wakes up or defecates within 10-20 minutes after meals, or keeps smelling, take it to the toilet immediately.

Training fixed-point urination and defecation is the key. The puppies are not fully developed and have poor tolerance. They usually want to defecate after waking up or 10-20 minutes after eating. Adult dogs have a stronger endurance, but when they have the intention of defecation, they will keep sniffing and turn around the ground to find a place to defecate. Of course, puppies also have similar movements before defecation. When it wants to defecate, take it to the dog toilet immediately. You can use snacks to lure your dog to follow you.

3. The dog may not have the intention to defecate when he just arrived at the dog toilet, so wait patiently.

When you have the intention to defecate, it will be interrupted and taken to the dog toilet. It will take some time to get it back to defecate. At this time, the master just needs to stand beside him and wait patiently. You can stand at the door of the toilet and block the door with your own body and not let it come out, but do not look at it during the period, so that it can regain its desire for defecation.

4. When the dog starts to defecate, add the password "poop/pee" and get the snacks reward after it finishes defecation.

When it poops, it can add the password "poop/pee", and later it can use the password to guide it to urinate and defecate at a fixed point. Reward your snacks immediately after the dog's defecation is completed! It is best to use more snack rewards at the beginning. After a period of time, you can use praise and touch instead of some snack rewards.

5. During this period, the dog will urinate in the wrong place, and the owner will clean it up silently.

Learn a new skill, and dogs will definitely make mistakes. But it is best not to beat or scold after urinating randomly. It is easy to misunderstand your meaning: the owner doesn’t like poop, I’ll eat it next time, I’ll hate it if I don’t have enough poop this time and pull it a little more next time... Being angry and beating or scolding just makes you vent your anger for a moment, and it’s not good for training to urinate and defecate, just clean it up silently.

6. Repeat training multiple times.

The IQ of a dog is similar to that of a child, so you can't ask him to learn something once. The most important thing when training a dog to urinate and defecate is that the owner is patient and practices for many days before he can truly learn it. If a dog always defecates in the wrong place several times, it is not really learned and needs to continue training.
