Chihuahua
The most common problems complained by dog owners are that dogs jump up and pounce on people, bark, destroy and bite, etc. Most of these behaviors are caused by the lack of good training in behavior norms for dogs. When there is anxiety (storm coming, anxiety caused by isolation, etc.) or when their environment is not pleasant enough, dogs may dig the soil to escape this feeling.
< strong > Solution: < /strong > Correction method of digging after defecation. If your dog shows signs of digging after defecation, then when the dog just shows signs of digging after defecation, yank the leash and combine the "NO" or "no" password to stop it in time.
Ways to correct your behavior: If your dog runs to the ground because he smells the ground and wants to find something, you need to use the "NO" or "no" password combined with traction to make corrections when he smells the ground and just wants to explore.
Trying to stop this behavior is more effective than changing it into an acceptable way. Give the dog a special digging basin, fill it with soft sand or soil, and bury some bones, toys or other things for the dog to find, which can satisfy his innate preference.
If the dog always digs the soil in a certain place in the yard, it can set a trap in this place, so that it can get bored of that place and avoid it, such as burying a balloon in the soil shallowly. Yelling at the dog is useless because you can't catch it every time you dig the soil. Besides, some dogs think that digging will attract people's attention, so yelling at and chasing it just makes dogs dig more frequently.
