The peculiarity of this breed of dogs is that they, like cats, can be taught to go to the toilet at home and not go out with them early in the morning for a walk. Moreover, if the Spitz is still young and he does not have all the vaccinations, walks in the street are dangerous and undesirable for him.
However, immediately prepare for the fact that the process of training will take a lot of time and will require your tireless attention and great patience. It is better if you can take a vacation at work for this period to constantly monitor the dog.
How to teach a Spitz to go on a diaper?
There are two basic ways of training to a diaper depending on whether the puppy is accustomed to the toilet and simply confused in a new place or he has no idea what to do with the tray or diaper.
- How to teach a diaper to a diaper if it is already accustomed to the toilet of the house, but is in an unfamiliar environment? First of all, remove all the rugs from the apartment for a while. If the puppy ever goes to the carpet, there will be a strong smell, and the pet will confidently consider it a place for the management of the need. Next, in all the rooms where the Spitz will be located, we spread out the diapers. They should be in the puppy's field of vision. As soon as he descends on the diaper, encourage him with a word that you will use every time after a successful "pose" and treat yourself with a delicacy. Gradually move the diapers to the place intended for the puppy's toilet, about 2-3 cm per day. The number of diapers also should gradually decrease. As a result, you will have one diaper in the right place.
- How to teach a dog to go on a diaper , if it is very small and not accustomed to the toilet? In this case, you need to limit the space by which the puppy can move freely. For example, it can be a corral, a free room or a kitchen. The whole floor in this space is covered with diapers, leaving no choice puppy and alternatives. Every time after the puppy did everything right, praise him and treat him with a delicacy. Immediately after that you can let him take a walk to other rooms, so that he is not always in prison. Like children, small puppies want to go to the toilet after waking up and after eating, so in these periods again we plant it in the "diaper kingdom." When the puppy understands the purpose of the diapers, act in accordance with the first method.
