The cocker spaniel I just bought two days ago, how to train him to go to the toilet

First of all, it should be clear that as a dog's nature, he is reluctant to be near his own nest. At the same time, the dog will find a place that is often convenient through the sense of smell and fix it. Therefore, as he grows older and his range of activities expands, he will gradually find a relatively fixed place away from his nest.

There are two ways, one is to fix a place at home for the convenience of the dog, and the other is not to allow the dog to be convenient at home. The former dog can solve the problem at any time, but there is always a little smell at home; The latter must take the dog out for a walk more than twice a day, regardless of wind or rain, but the home will be cleaner.

Puppies can start training when they are one month old, and puppies learn to set points easily, and as long as you have patience in the first few days, they can generally be successful. There are many designated places, some people use the sewer of the toilet, some people use the dog toilet bought at the pet store, and some people use newspapers and put them away from the dog's kennel. I don't think the newspaper is absorbent enough, so I use diapers all the time, just change them once a day, and it's also very convenient.

At first, you can use a newspaper or diaper to dip a little puppy urine, or wipe the puppy's buttocks, and then put it in a fixed place, and the puppy will find a smelly place by itself. If he won't look for it, you have to be observant. The puppy will always have some fixed movements before convenience, such as lowering his head and sniffing repeatedly in a small area, walking back and forth, turning in circles, etc., as soon as this action is found, he will be carried to the designated place for his convenience, and praise him after he is convenient, so that he knows that he is doing the right thing.

The normal life of a puppy should be relatively regular, after eating, or waking up, will want to go to the convenience, pay attention to this rule will also help you know when the puppy will want to be convenient.

If you want your puppy to get used to going to the toilet outside, it should generally start at 4-5 months of age. Before that, the puppy's nerves and muscles were not fully developed, and it was difficult to hold it at home, and it was difficult to remember it when he was educated. At first, take him out 4-5 times a day, that is, take him out during the dog's usual toilet time, so that he can be outside conveniently.

And if it is convenient for him at home, you should educate him on the spot, let him know that you are unhappy, and at the same time wipe the scene clean, do not leave the smell, you can use 84 disinfectant and the like to wipe it repeatedly to remove the smell. As your dog gets more accustomed to going to the toilet outside, the number of times you take him out can also be gradually reduced, but eventually not less than twice a day.
