Children first, then pets

When establishing a hierarchical relationship, the owner should help the child do something so that he can smoothly become a The primary leader of pets. Now take a dog as an example to illustrate some specific operations.

First of all, when a dog (whether it is a puppy or an adult dog) first comes to the house, tell the children not to be too enthusiastic. If you are too enthusiastic or even forcefully hug the dog, the dog may bite because of being too nervous. To do it step by step, you can first play with it with a ball, or feed it with some food. If it tries to hide, don't blame it.

Secondly, to become a dog's leader, one must be confident and wise. Children must be calm in front of dogs. During the first few times of contact, the dog will usually roar at the person approaching. At this time, tell the child not to be afraid and to show confidence. Otherwise, the dog will most likely think that you are afraid of it, and it will treat the child as a little brother from then on.

Third, after about a week, the dogs will become familiar with their children, and many puppies will bite their owners' pants and feet. At this time, children should learn to pat its mouth, throw it away, then walk away and ignore it. If some dogs are too enthusiastic, they can send them to dog training school. Additionally, they can enroll their children in some dog training classes.

●Special reminder that hierarchical relationships do not mean beating and scolding

Relatively young children can be a little rude to dogs, especially children between the ages of 3 and 6, who are naughty and love to play. When they feel that the dog is disobedient, they will beat and scold the dog. At this time, children should be taught and not beaten or scolded.

Don’t scold children in front of pets

Criticizing a child in front of his peers will make him feel humiliated, hurt his self-esteem, and even more frightening, he will lose his self-confidence. In fact, if you often criticize your child in front of the dog, the child will also lose self-esteem, and will even misunderstand the dog as being higher than the child, and even bite him.

In addition, when a dog does something wrong, it must be disciplined, but not with force or in front of the child, otherwise it may get angry with the child.

First there are pets, thenthe situation of children

Take care of your children without neglecting your pets

If there are pets first and then children, how should we establish a correct hierarchical relationship between children and pets?

Ma Guoquan said that as children forget their pets, this is the current situation of most families, and some families will make extreme decisions to give away their pets. In fact, this is not conducive to the good development of the relationship between children and pets. After some processing, pets can accept their owners well. Therefore, after giving birth, you should pay attention to reducing your pet's sense of loss and jealousy. Below are the most common dog and cat examples to illustrate how to do this.

Baby and Dog

Dogs are always more actively involved in family affairs, so you should start adjusting your work a few months in advance to prevent the baby from being in a hurry when he comes home.

If you will not have the energy to take your dog for a walk for a period of time after the baby arrives home, please solve this problem in advance, such as asking a relative, friend or nanny to help walk the dog, and let them understand and adapt to each other in advance.

Look at your dog for any habits that may cause trouble for the baby, such as jumping up when excited, and conduct the necessary training as soon as possible to correct the bad habits.

Bring baby-scented items home early and let your dog smell them to help him get used to the novel smell.

Praise and reward your dog when he acts friendly and calm around children.

Never leave a baby alone with your dog.

When the baby is asleep, spend more time with your dog so that he doesn't feel unloved.

Baby and Cat

The biggest problem between cats and babies is that the cat may not be able to get enough rest due to the arrival of the baby, so make sure it gets enough attention. Reminder of the following two points:

Keep cats out of the baby's room.

Don’t let the cat leave the room when the baby is present; when the child is dining, treat the cat well with delicious food and talk to it docilely.

Please remember that all efforts are rewarded. Careful and scientific arrangements can make pets and children live in harmony, and the unconditional attention and companionship of pets will bring a sense of joy to children. A life of pure emotion worth cherishing.
