How to train dogs to defecate in the crate?
In-box defecation training is a relatively common training method, mainly used for urination and defecation training of newly born puppies. The specific methods are as follows:
1. Before purchasing a dog, you should give the puppy Prepare a lidless carton or wooden box, lay some plastic sheets inside the box (a small breathable plastic mat is also good), put some newspaper or straw on it, and place the box in a corner of the room.
2. In the first 2 weeks of the newly purchased dog, if you have free time, you should catch it in the box for a few minutes every hour until it defecates. Or when there are signs of defecation, such as restlessness, circling, sniffing, tail tilting, squatting, etc., they should be pulled or carried into the box in time to let them defecate. Over time, the puppies will become accustomed to defecation in the box.
3. After every time it defecates in the box, you must appreciate it, say it is good, good, really obedient, it is best to pat it, or touch it You can also give him a few pieces of food as encouragement on his head, neck, back, or where he likes to be touched the most. The dog is a kind of spiritual animal, repeating it a few times will definitely understand that your encouragement is the correct behavior, and will be willing to defecate in the box in the future.
4. Once the puppy forgets to defecate in the crate, you should immediately grab the dog, press its nose to its excrement, and yell at it so that it knows it is punishment. Then hold the dog into the box and ask it to sniff. After 2-3 training sessions, it will remember to defecate in the box.
TIP: If your dog still doesn't follow the training, you can purchase a special dog deodorant and spray it on the places you don't want your dog to pee and stop the dog from peeing there. You can also scrub the place where it poops with bleach or vinegar to get rid of its odor so that it won't smell next time, so it won't be there.
