The kernels with high material content), because the dog's nest of natural fabrics is not easy to generate static electricity, dogs stay in it, and dog hair is not easy to knot.

I have trained dogs to sleep on their own nests since childhood
5. Choose a security nest
For puppies, training it is an indispensable lesson. You must know that if you lack certain training, many Even if the dog is still unwilling to sleep in a dog's nest even when it comes to adulthood, it will appear to sleep everywhere. This is not only not conducive to family hygiene, but also not conducive to the etiquette training of dogs. And training dog sleeping dog nests must start with puppies. When puppies play back from the outside, or to sleep, the owner can bring it to the door of the dog house, push it in with his hands, and use your idioms while using your hand. Send an order.

At this time, you can, you can Try to put things stained with its smell, such as cushions, clothes, toys, etc., which can attract it to "home" well. When many dogs have new nests, they always like to bite this nest. It is actually familiar with this nest, but if accidentally, it may be bitten by it. Therefore, at first you should put a toy in the new nest so that the dog will not bite the nest.
