Dogs must be given a fixed time and place for eating and training every day. Generally speaking, dogs can eat food prepared for it and put it in the food bowl. Below are 5 key points for dogs when eating:
1. Establish owners' control over dogs
Healthy dogs have strong appetite, and training of eating food should be done before feeding. When the owner gives food, the dog usually acts very excited, sometimes jumps up and snatches and makes a scream. The owner needs to use a dog leash to pull the dog, or block the dog with his hands to prevent it from eating, and bark the command "No eating" in his mouth. The dog is not allowed to move forward half a step and let the dog sit in front of the food utensil. If the dog does as he does, the owner can immediately stroke the dog's head, praise it, and then issue the command "eat" to let the dog eat.
After repeated training, the dog gradually develops the habit of not eating without the owner's order. This behavior reflects the absolute authority of the master.
2. Do not let the dog spill food out of the food bowl at will. When eating, you cannot indulge the dog to get the food outside or overturn the food bowl. If it occurs, it should be stopped. At the same time, this phenomenon may also be due to the tableware itself. For dogs with long mouth barrels (such as cocker spaniels, Afghan hounds, etc.), deeper food bowls should be selected; for dogs with shorter mouth barrels (such as bastards, Boston Terriers, etc.), shallower food bowls should be selected.
3. Pay attention to controlling the dog's eating time
The eating time should be controlled at about 20 minutes. If it exceeds, you must be determined to put away the things. This training must be strictly carried out when puppies are in order to develop good eating habits for dogs.
4. Don't be soft-hearted
When the owner eats, many greedy dogs will lie on the owner's legs and beg for food. At this time, the owner must not be soft-hearted. If the dog shows a pitiful look, give it to it. Things that are not allowed to happen to the dog.
Feeding at will can easily develop bad habits and bad tempers of dogs.
5. Reduce the supply of snacks. In addition to the rewards during training, puppies cannot give other snacks. Otherwise, dogs are prone to indigestion, which will lead to dogs getting sick.
