1. Young German Shepherds should be trained starting from 70 days after birth, and adult German Shepherds should be trained immediately.
2. Of course, before training, the owner should find a suitable excretion place for the German Shepherd at home, and then install a dog toilet. Professional dog toilets purchased at pet stores or homemade dog toilets are acceptable. When everything is ready, formal training can begin.
3. The owner should first understand the excretion habits of the German Shepherd. Generally speaking, dogs have rectal bowels. They will excrete after about 15 minutes of drinking water and about 30 minutes of eating and drinking when they get up in the morning. In addition, when you find the little German Shepherd sniffing against the ground, it means that it is about to excrete. At this time, the owner can quickly guide it to the fixed dog toilet and then let it excrete.
4. Every time you come out of the cage, you must first take it to the toilet and complete its defecation before going to play. After a few times it will gradually become a habit. If you do something right, praise it promptly. If it is not convenient in the designated place, tell it in a stern tone that it is wrong when it is discovered. You can slap the ground with a newspaper roll as a warning. Then wash the floor thoroughly and spray it with deodorant. Repeated many times, the puppy will gradually form a concept of where it can be excreted and where it cannot be excreted.
5. A method used to strengthen the dog’s correct habits, consolidate the dog’s developed behavior, and adjust the dog’s nervous state. Reward methods include feeding food, petting, playing, and verbal praise of "good". Rewards are extremely important in dog training, but they must be used correctly, otherwise, good results will not be achieved. In dog training, the principle of "step by step, from simple to complex, adapting to the dog's conditions, and treating them individually" must be followed. You must be careful and patient.
