Unless you actually catch the dog making a mistake in the house, it does little good to correct at all. A dog has no idea why you are rubbing it's nose in pee..prevent mistakes with gates and pens, frequent potty breaks, belly bands and panties to prevent the odor from attracting them back to the same area..if you find a stool on the floor, take it outside and put it in an area you want the pup to go..if they are trained to wee pads, put it there for an hour or so..not fun, but they need to be drawn back to the odor of where they went in the past.
Correcting for biting is a different matter..have you ever watched how the Dog Whisperer corrects a dog..the same way the dam corrects a pup..you give it a poke or tap on the side of the face or shoulder area..gentle of course. Dams take their paws and do this..they might even make a snapping sound with the teeth like Ceasar does.. |
