Dog Behavior Problems – A Cure. by Tobias Charles
Dog Behavior Problems – How to Succeed.
Q 1
My dog and puppy pees when I pet him – what can I do?
A 1
* Your dog is doing what is known as submissive urination. This is a Housetraining issue and your dog/puppy is actually trying to tell you that you are superior to him. Dog’s communicate very differently to humans and when a puppy or dog is approached by a bigger or more dominant dog – the lower ranking dog may pee to let them know that he respects him.
* When you lean over your dog you are in a very assertive position – so your dog well pee to tell you that you are more dominant.
* Don’t shout at him otherwise he may pee more as he doesn’t think you got the message the first time he peed.
* You may notice submissive urination in certain breeds – it happens to be quiet common in Spaniels.
The cure
Dog’s often do submissive urination when you have been gone for a while and come back – consequently the dog maybe excited.
* The next time you come back from going out – ignore your dog – don’t pet him or greet him – or make eye contact with him – tell any visitors to do the same.
* As soon as your dog has calmed down after about 15 mins or however long it takes – quietly acknowledge him – make it very matter of fact – don’t get excited otherwise your dog will start peeing.
* The calmer you are the calmer your dog/puppy will be.
* Continue to ignore him when you get back and he has calmed down and eventually your puppy/dog will start to get better control of his bladder.
Q 2
* My dog is doing well in his outdoor training regime but as soon as it rains he will go outside but not potty – what should I do?
A 2
* Some dogs are able to pee outside in a force 10 hurricane but others see a spot of rain and just won’t go. Think about it though – it’s not very appealing to your dog (and it wouldn’t be to you either) to go outside in the rain and pee.
* Consider taking him outside with an umbrella – you may feel this is a bit indulgent – but you will have clean carpet.
* Maybe build a small shelter for him to pee under.
* Use rewards – use a reward so that as soon as he pees you give him lots of praise and a nice dog treat – a nice piece of beef or liver – this particular trick worked on a Yorkie I was training.)
Q 3
* I take my dog outside to potty but he takes forever – how do I get him to do his business quicker?
A 3
* You have quite allot of control over how long it takes your dog/puppy to pee.
* If you are letting your dog/puppy take 30 minute to find the right spot – then you are teaching him to take 30 minutes to find the right spot.
* If you want him to take 5 minutes then take him out on his leash and use a cue word that you have decided on – (you may need to refer to one of my other articles) and use the cue word “go potty” or whatever you chose – if he doesn’t go then bring him inside and confine him to his crate for 15 mins.
* Keep doing this and he will soon realize that he has an allotted time to pee.
