In the training of butterfly dogs, the principle of step by step, from simple to complex, according to the dog's conditions, and treated separately must be followed.

1. Training the butterfly dog to defecate at a fixed place

1) The method of training the butterfly dog is: put a potty in a certain place, put old newspapers in it, and spread some sand or soil on it. Ash slag, within a certain period of time, such as: after feeding, after getting up in the morning, and before going to bed at night. Lead the puppy to the place where the potty is placed. If the puppy can urinate in the potty, the puppy can be trained with petting expressions or food rewards. Sometimes the butterfly dog does not necessarily have to defecate within this time, and it does not matter, let it go after a certain period of time.

2) If it is found that the puppy does not urinate in the designated place, it should be severely reprimanded after it is finished, let the puppy know that you do not like it to urinate here, and then take it to the designated size convenient place. After patient training and training of the butterfly dog, the butterfly dog can gradually develop the habit of urinating in a fixed place.

3) During the training of the butterfly dog, it should be noted that the bedpan cannot be moved, and some sand and soil after the last defecation should be left, so that the dog can find the place to defecate through the smell. In addition, when the butterfly dog goes out, it has the habit of urinating on the side of the road to mark it. This is the nature of the butterfly dog. It must be distinguished from the urination and defecation. However, on the city streets, this habit of the butterfly dog is also harmful to hygiene. Therefore, when the dog owner leads the butterfly dog to go out, he must wear a collar and guide it with a belt.

2. Training the butterfly dog to pose beautifully

1) At present, the exhibition and evaluation of famous dogs has been held in China, which puts forward higher requirements for dog lovers. In the competition, in addition to observing the appearance of the butterfly dog, the quality of the standing posture is also the key to winning. Therefore, it is usually necessary to train the butterfly dog to pose a good posture. To this end, the butterfly dog's fear of falling can be used, and a small table or a raised board can be used in a place with a small area and higher than the ground.

2) First, hold the butterfly dog on the small table, let its hind legs be close to the edge of the small table, and let go of the hand. Because the dog is afraid of falling, its limbs become weak and want to lie down. We need to hold its front chest or chin with one hand, and gently pull the butterfly dog's tail back with the other hand. Be careful not to only pull the tail hair, so as not to cause pain. The hand holding the front chest is also pushed back together, so that the dog cannot sit down.

3) When the butterfly dog finds that the back foot will lose its support, and when it is about to step back, it will instinctively lean forward and straighten up, the forelegs are solid, and the toes are tightened. A standard posture in which the limbs are upright and the head held high. As long as this method is repeated many times, the butterfly dog can learn. Even if it is standing on a flat ground, as long as we pull the tail and pull it back, the butterfly dog will reflexively put on a standard graceful posture.
