Pre-meal training

In order to help the dog develop good meal preparation habits, you can ring the bell or call the dog's name before each feeding to stimulate the dog's excitement level. If you persist for a long time, it will make the dog more excited. Before eating, the dog's digestive system enters an excited state, saliva secretion increases, and appetite increases. You can control the dog a little before eating, for example, put aside a small utensil for mixing dog food, and train the dog to pick up the utensil and hand it to the owner. Before the owner gives the command, order the dog not to move. In the early stages of training, the owner can try to help the dog get into a good posture. After the owner gives commands such as "start" and "eat", it indicates that the dog can start enjoying the food. If the dog is still looking at you in confusion at this time, you can push the dog food bowl in front of the dog and actively signal the dog to eat. Be careful not to wait too long for the command to be issued, otherwise it will affect the dog's appetite.

After-meal training

If the dog makes a mess on the floor after a meal, don’t rush to clean it up at this time. First guide the dog to lick the food in the bowl clean, and then The dog cleans up the "mess" while paying attention. If necessary, you can take the dog to the "crime scene" for identification and give small punishments, such as patting the head or saying loudly "no!", "no" and other words. This kind of training helps the dog develop a good habit of not grabbing food and being hygienic during the eating process. Secondly, it can also tell the dog that "food on the ground cannot be eaten randomly."

Food-picking training

Many dogs have the bad habit of picking up food when they go out. Picking up food will not only cause the growth of gastrointestinal bacteria in dogs, but in severe cases may even threaten The dog’s life is safe, so training the dog not to pick up food is a compulsory course. When training, you can choose a quieter area outdoors, place your dog’s favorite food in an obvious place, and move close to the food in an umbrella state during the walk. When the dog shows an obvious desire to eat, immediately say “no”. The command is accompanied by a violent pull back on the leash to stimulate the dog. After the dog stops picking up food, give appropriate encouragement and repeated training.
