Dog Training Tips Chewing
Posted in General | No Comments »
What is the best way to train a dog not to chew everything?
My one year old Golden Retriever chews anything he can get a hold of … She loves children especially stuffed animals, shoes and my bra. I'm up to my last pair of shoes and I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to get it to stop. Thanks! I've had since she was a puppy. We scold when chewing things that do not belong to it. She has a collection of his own things. We rawhide and "Dingo" for her bones. She has found digging in the closet to get items to chew And yesterday, I found chewing on the edge of my dildo … while in bed! This has become a recent problem … she's used to be really good just chewing their own things only occasional setbacks. There is a separate thing. I am a mother at home. BUT, we have moved past. Could this be the problem?
Gold Retreivers are large dogs, the advantage is that they are bred to have "soft mouth" which means that genetically, which have been bred to have the characteristic of not destroying birds / ducks that can be recovered … the disadvantage is that the longer the puppy's behavior continues unchecked, the harder it becomes to rehabiltate the dog … that being said, and if you are serious and willing to make the effort, you can give the dog their own toys … ok … now the dog has its own thing … only dog toys because you can not associate that gave him a shoe, but can not have other shoes, which have their own toys now … the trick is to be very careful and when you see even eyeball any across yours, it gives a warning, as a severe "NO!" take that item and save it, then immediately offered one of their own toys and reward when you accept it, playing with the toy with him for a few … keep repeating that without fail and a dog as a golden Retreiver fire fast … in his mind to be connected is "Oh, do not want me to have his stuff, but I can have my own whenever I want" I hope that sooner or later, the dog will start and offers its toys to encourage play with him … good luck! Awesome race!
