Fixed-point defecation training method for Maltese dogs:
First, designate a place to relieve yourself:
Before taking the Maltese puppy home, we need to find a place in advance, such as a corner or the toilet. It must be specified well and do not modify it easily. In the future, the Maltese puppy will be trained to urinate and defecate in this designated place.
At first, the Maltese puppies are not used to it, and they may lose their temper, but it doesn’t matter. You must stick to this location. It is best to stay away from the dog’s food or nest. As time goes by, the Maltese dog The puppies gradually get used to it.
Second, induce the Maltese dog to learn to urinate and defecate at designated points.
Generally, dogs will defecate within 30 minutes after eating or waking up. Using this feature, we can observe the performance of the Maltese puppy and then lure the puppy.
For example, we keep an eye on the Maltese dog after a meal or when he wakes up. Once we find that the little Maltese dog is making movements to urinate, such as turning in circles or sniffing around. When you observe this action occurring, immediately guide the Maltese dog, such as half pushing and half pulling, or pulling and coaxing, to guide the puppy to the right place.
At the same time, once the Maltese dog urinates and defecates in the designated place, you must remember to encourage the dog, such as giving a favorite snack or a grain of beef or something to encourage it. Slowly, the Maltese dog learned that it is correct to urinate here, and developed a good habit of urinating at a fixed point.
Third, don’t beat or scold the dog
Don’t easily beat or scold the little Maltese dog for urinating or defecating, otherwise the dog will think that urinating and defecating is a "wrong thing", and will only dare to secretly urinate and defecate when the owner is not paying attention, which will be troublesome to train in the future. .
So when the little Maltese dog pulls in the right place, the owner should give a lot of encouragement! If the little Maltese dog pulls in the wrong place, just say to the dog in a slightly serious (volume increased) tone: "No!", and then hug it immediately. The dog just goes to the right place to relieve himself. At the same time, excrement in the wrong place should be cleaned up immediately, and the area should be thoroughly deodorized (bleach + deodorant spray). In order to prevent the Maltese puppy from smelling the previous smell and pooping in the same place next time, it will be difficult to correct it in the future.
Generally speaking, after repeated practice with a Maltese puppy for a few days, the Maltese puppy should be able to defecate at a fixed location.
