Let the dog be familiar with the belly in the cage for a while
Although dogs can move freely at home for most of the time, it is also important to make dogs adapt to life in the cage. This is very helpful for our foster care or consignment in the future, and if we cannot be at home for some reason, it is relatively safe to let the dog stay alone in the cage alone.
1. Methods of training into the cage
1. Use food to induce
First use food to attract their attention, and then use food to lure dogs into cages. After the dog enters the cage, you must give it food to praise it. Then use food to induce it to get out of the cage. After the dog is completed, it must be praised in time. Do this repeated training.
2. Do not close the door after entering the cage
Don't pay attention to the door as soon as you enter the cage, so that the dog may be frightened. Slowly watch the cage while soothing the dog. If the dog wants to come out to stop them, if they obey the instructions to give rewards.
3. Let the dog stay quietly for a while
After closing the door, walk away first, let the dog's stomach familiar with it. Don't respond even if the dog screams. If the dog stays quietly in the cage, then you will praise it after putting it out and give it appropriately.
2. Pay attention to the problem when training the cage
1. Don't open the door even if it is noisy
When the dog is noisy or grabbing the door, don't let it out of the cage. Dogs will think that this complaint method will be free. It is best to ignore it, and only open the door after it is quiet or calm.
2. Do not take a cage as a starting tool
If the dog usually makes mistakes, it is best not to use the method of closing the cage as a punishment, so as not to connect the cage with bad things.
3. Don't disrupt the dogs in the cage
If you have children at home, do not let your children disrupt the dogs in the cage casually. Not only children, the whole family is the same. When a dog enters the cage, don't disturb casually.
4. Don't turn off for a while and relax
The owner should not be proud of the shape because of success. Dogs do not make mistakes for several consecutive weeks, it does not mean that it will be, nor does it mean that it has been domesticated. Training needs to continue to take place, otherwise the dog will soon forget.
The size of the cage should be appropriate
Three, Cage Select Note
1. Choose cages that are appropriate size
The length of the size is that the length of the cage is best twice the length of the dog. In this way, dogs can have enough activity space, and even when they grow up, they will not look too crowded.
2. The cage should be stronger
For dogs with smaller body shapes, the wire can be used, but it is necessary to choose a square iron rod for dogs with relatively strong body size. Compared with the wire, it is much stronger.
3. Reasonable cage structure
The bottom of the cage is best to have a tray, which can facilitate the urination of the dog. The bottom plate of the dog cage of a square iron rod is active and can be taken out and washed. But if there is no tray, the dog's stool will stick to it, so it is more troublesome to clean up.
4. Keep hygiene in the cage
Because it is excreted in the cage, the dog is easy to touch the bottom of the cage, so it is necessary to clean up the cage every day. If you do not clean up the dirt in time, it is easy to breed bacteria in the cage, which is also very unfavorable to the health of the dog.
