ETHREADZNY Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO HOUSEBREAK A PUPPY. I DONT BELIEVE IN HITTING THEM... DO CAGES WORK< AND WHEN DO YOU USE THEM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THUMB WRESTL Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 dude, you're going to have to hit or spank them when they pee on your shit, otherwise they won't know whether youre mad or happy when they mess up. i'm not saying break it's leg because it pee'd on your carpet, but a tap on that ass to let it know YOUR boss is ok... hahaha from what i saw growing up and my mom doing to our pets (we had many) you put there face in it, not in the puddle but next to it, to let them know what you are mad about, and then spank them and tell them NO NO NO!! ahhahaahahah, then tell them to go to the bathroom outside, and throw them out back for awhile. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_Europe Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Take them outsides where they can do their business ALL the time when theyre young. Give them praise when they do their business, so they know they did a good thing. Start slowing the outsides trips down and in the end the dog will know that its time for business when its outside. When they do their business inside, which is unavoidable in the beginning, yell at it a little bit in a dark voice right when its doing it or right after, it will learn that its a bad thing to do. Training it is a bitch, Im doing it at the moment, but its worth it in the end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest willy.wonka Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 dog tricks..the secret put a real tasty treat in your hand.."cup it" have the pup smell the treat and have him follow your hand around (stayin one spot) have his nose follow actually to sit..just say sit and raise your fist above the pup's head...causing him/her to look up and sit down to lay is just the opposite..just say lay and bring the treat down to the ground..having him follow your every hand move..:bonus: try to have your pup lay and bring your treat to the left or right and say "roll over" and kind of guid your pup to roll. once you and your pup start getting better..you can have him follow you around with the treat in your hand still..for "heal" it is wise and very rewarding to teach your pup all of this throughout the puppy years..by the time he or she turns into a full grown dog, you have a loveable diciplined dog. just make sure you give him the "good dog" and pet him and reward him or her with the treat after they accomplished the task..it will take a while to learn, but well worth it. take your dog out to use the bathroom every once in a while..then as the pup ages it will be known to want to go out to shit or piss. good luck..

ETHREADZNY Posted December 17, 2002 Author Share Posted December 17, 2002 good point. what about crates, we live in a apartment, and I dont want the dog tearing shit up. How long do you keep them in a crate, the dog is 10 months now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest railroadjerk Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 my mom totally fucked this all up with her last dog. she thinks its housbroken because she takes it out at the same times every day, but the dog still loses it in the house all the time. i frankly dont see it ever being housebroken. you know youve got a great dog when it taps on the door because it has to go to the bathroom. makes me feel like i accomplished something with it.

ETHREADZNY Posted December 17, 2002 Author Share Posted December 17, 2002 The cool thing about this dog, is he is afraid of his refelction. everytime he walks past a mirror, he barks and scrathes the mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_Europe Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Let the dog live in the apartment with you. Dont lock it up. People dont like being locked up, it fucks with them, same with dogs. If you really have to, make sure its plenty big for the dog and it has something to lay on and water to drink.

THUMB WRESTL Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 what kind of dog is it? i'd let it roam freely, its only and apartment, but if need be, i'd get one of those gate things and keep it in the kitchen, that way it can run around in there and if it goes to the bathroom its easy to clean up..

ETHREADZNY Posted December 17, 2002 Author Share Posted December 17, 2002 I have heard through many, that chew sticks and raw hide bones tear the inside of the puppies stomach up. any word on this. The rubber rings work, but he eats the small pieces and they keep coming out in his shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!CEBERG Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Nah you don't have to hit them. Say if the dog takes a dump on you floor, my father takes the dog by the back of the neck to hold it's head and puts it's nose right up on the shit and yells at it to intimidate the shit out of it while it's staring at it's own shit, then maybe a light slap on the snout but after awhile of doin that it'll get the message.... "Everytime I take a shit in this room, I get my nose put in it and yelled at like crazy.... hmmmm" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_El Mamerro Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Re: dog tricks..the secret Originally posted by willy.wonka once you and your pup start getting better..you can have him follow you around with the treat in your hand still..for "heal" Good way to start. As your dog grows and gains both experience and magic points, it can go much farther than simple healing spells. Around Level 12, you can train him for more advanced techniques such as "Lightning", "Cloak", and "Confusion". Summoning spells come much later, since they require a lot of experience and patience, but the time spent training your dog will be well worth it. Good luck on your journey.

The rubber rings work, but he eats the small pieces and they keep coming out in his shit. you're gonna have to ask a vet about this one. but think about it, how long have dogs (in general) been chewing on stuff like that? their stomachs seem pretty fuckin hardy and they will find dangerous stuff to chew on regardless..it is a dog after all or go to petsmart or some shit and ask em if they have a chew toy thats gentle.. they make those plastic ones too, that squek, or are shaped like a newspaper or whatnot.. good luck i used to have a little rat terrier he was so goddamn cute.. i miss him but he stank.. we had to give him baths or keep his hair cut close anyway, good luck.. you should post flicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
