Evans Guide for Housetraining Your Dog I just read this amazing book called the "Evans Guide for Housetraing your dog" by Job Michael Evans.
Evans gives example of how the mother of the pups keeps her area clean when the pups are still nursing. That its unacceptable for them to go on her or near her. Evans explains how that role known as "alpha" can continue by first making eye contact with pup and when speaking to puppy to not have a high pitch voice like other pups rather a low growl (deeper voice) like the mother. He emphasizes putting your pup on a schedule and what to do when pup has an accident... from how to discipline to specifically walking your dog on a leash to the correct area (pee pad) after the pup has seen his accident vs. carrying your dog to the pee pad.
Sounds like it will be effective as he has a large amount of experience with dogs.
I am going to try his technique with my new puppy and let you know how it goes. The book is great... not very long too. |
