Dog Health Questions: Dog Training?

if your dog pees in the house, i remember that you're not supposed to show them the pee... why don't you show them what they did wrong? isn't is because they won't relate it as to something that they did wrong?

Dog Training - Avoiding Common Mistakes During Dog Training Sessions

Recommended Answer:
You have to catch a dog in the act and immediately take it outside, telling them "outside outside outside". Then they can process that the act they were doing is to be done outside.

After the fact, you are punishing them for something they cannot remember. This is similar to punishing a 2 yr old for hitting someone at school when they get home that evening. They have no understanding of what you are punishing them for. When you push your dogs nose in his pee, he is seeing Yes there is pee here and you are screaming No. The dog is processing "you don't want my nose in the pee--but then why are you pushing my nose INTO the pee?" As you can see, that makes no sense.

You are training their instincts--telling you when they need to go outside. You can't train them to clean up the rug afterwards. So punishing them afterwards is pointless.

Know The Basics Of Dog Trainings

• because they are dogs, not humans. they don't have the logical skill to understand it as something they did 'wrong'. you have to house "train" them, because that is what they understand


• sorry i do not understand your question is it even a question


• they won't relate what you are doing if you don't catch them in the act. all they know is you are showing them the pee and yelling at them. they don't relate the act with the anger. you need to get a crate and crate train her. and go outside with her and praise the heck out of her. here's a great site and just read and follow directions. be consistent , patient and then show affection when done right. good luck

• i am not shure


• the dog wont understand whats going on. if you tell him to 'come' to the pee then tell him off he will think he is being told off for coming. he has already forgotten everything else. he only remembers what he has just done and will think he is being told off for that.


• No, it's because it is giving attention which is exactly waht you don't want to do. Giving attention even negative is giving a reward..in otherwords it is rewarding inappropriate behavior.
  
  You simple clean up the accident with a good cleaner such as Natures Miracle.
  
  If you catch the dog in the act you can simply firmly say "no" and take the dog out to the appropriate place and wait for him to finish and then praise, praise, praise, Saying "no" in a firm voice (no yelling/screaming) usually causes the dog to stop in midpee/poop and gives you the time to get him out to finish.
