Are Electronic Shock Collars Great Dog Training Devices?
Recommended Answer:
why would you hit any dog let alone your own? That might be how some human parents teach children, but it's not how a mother dog would teach her pup, so your dog has no clue why she's being hit and has just become fearful of you---which is a good reason as to why she's peeing in the house around you. When dogs are scared of you and don't know what you want from them, they sometimes urinate when all else fails. To other dogs, that would be a sign of submission. To you, it just makes you more mad, but she does NOT know that, despite how smart her breeds are supposed to be. plus, that breed-intelligence study is not scientific, and besides she's a MUTT, she's not guarenteed any smarts or anything else.
You have to take her out more. starting with every 30minutes. And work your way up to 6 hours. It will take time. It may take months, or it may take only a week, but consitency and PATIENCE is the key, plus POSITIVE REWARDS(praise and treats) for the behaviors you want.
Now, if YOU were 2 years old, and your mom left out a brand new game or toy on the kitchen table then your mom stopped watching, would you not climb up and get that toy? Think of your dog as having the maturity of a child....but remembering it is always a dog and will only understand things that dogs can understand.
please get a book about positive and clicker training! "The Dog Whisperer" by Paul Owens is a good one (it's not affiliated with the TV show)
Dog Training - Tips For Consistency
- You have a classic example of no pack leadership and using violence as a way of training. This is not going to work. Your dog is in serious need of learning boundaries and limitations. I could write you the whole package on how to rehabilitate your dog and train you. But your best bet is to go to Cesar Millan Dog Whisperer website and order one of his videos.
I have 9 dogs and they are all Cesar trained. I and my husband make the rules and they follow. In other words, we are Pack Leaders. - Yelling and hitting the dogs is not training. Don't leave food out. Don't leave the dog out running around the house. Crate train and send her out to pee and poop as soon as you let her out.
- You're probably making critical mistakes in your dog's obedience training and don't even know it!
It's not your fault. you aren't a dog so you won't be expected to know how they think and what makes them "tick"......
however ther's no excuse at all for ignorance because there are some incredible training courses and knowledge bases out there that can very quickly and effectively help you manifest a fantastic relationship with your dog.
you have to educate yourself on how not to abuse your pet & still train them to your satisfaction.
i think you've taken the first crucial step to doing this and taking SELF RESPONSIBLITY by asking here. so well done there.
If you really truly want a healthy well trained dog who will LISTEN to you wherever you go... if you want to be respected by other dog owners as someone who takes great care of their dog... then there is no doubt in my mind this link below will work for you.
