| commented answer | Why does my dog bite me? attempted biting and if necessary, correct the dog again. if he responds correctly, praise the dog. This is done to teach the dog the correct response to avoid the correction. Repetition is critical to ensure the dog recognizes the correct response and in the process, is rewarded for it |
| commented answer | Why does my dog bite me? although I do agree that the verbal command of "No" must be applied immediately when the dog tries to bite you, I would not recommend providing him/her with some other item to bite on. For training purposes, I would conduct follow up training, attempt to recreate the event that led to his/her |
| commented answer | My 6 month puppy nips in response to correction. Is this aggression? As with all dog training. you need to ensure you are using the proper principles of Patience, Practice and Repetition. Dogs figure things out pretty quickly....Good Luck |
| commented answer | My 6 month puppy nips in response to correction. Is this aggression? your hand gesture moving your arm in a forward circular movement while simultaniously pushing the dogs collar/choke chain downward should be applied. This forces the dog to go down and once they do, MUST be praised. |
| commented answer | My 6 month puppy nips in response to correction. Is this aggression? Dogs respond to different commands differently. In dog training, the value of the reward must be greater than the task being performed by the dog. If you are teaching the dog the command of "down", you must (or should) have the dog at the sit position directly in front of you. At that point |
| commented answer | Help! My dog won’t stop pooping and peeing in his kennel. What do I do? When the dog does have a bowel movement outside, it should be nothing but verbal and physical praise...so he/she is positive that what they did was what you wanted...use a continuous reward training using patience, practice and repetition. |

| commented answer | Help! My dog won’t stop pooping and peeing in his kennel. What do I do? Additionally, there should be no need to place puppy sheets as that only teaches the dog to go potty on a sheet...it is not necessary and merely conditions the dog to go on the pad...seeing how most want them to go outside, thats where the dog needs to be taken every time to do their business.. |
| commented answer | Help! My dog won’t stop pooping and peeing in his kennel. What do I do? It is also essential that you feed them timely and on a regimented schedule with a regimented diet. Changing foods can lead to bowel issues from time to time. |
| commented answer | Help! My dog won’t stop pooping and peeing in his kennel. What do I do? The first thing you can try is to time your dogs bowel movements...provided you can narrow down the timing, make sure when its her/his time to go potty, that you take them out of the crate and run them....running helps to stimulate the dogs internal receptors whereby they go potty fairly quickly. |
