Sleep in a crate

Where dogs sleep depends on their status. Resting in the owner's bed means that the dog has equal status with the owner, which makes them feel amazing. It’s best to keep your dog away from beds and furniture, and if your dog is disobedient, let them sleep in a crate in the kitchen during the behavior correction period!

Activity

Most dogs are born with certain things to do, and this trait persists during the breeding process. So you might as well give your dog something to do, including playing games. Training them to open doors and sit when petted or spoken to increases their sense of security and bond with their owners.

Train YES, punish NO

Punishment may not be effective sometimes. You should gradually change your relationship with your dog and build your authority. The dominance relationship between owner and dog is very important. It is necessary to carry out positive and humane obedience training for dogs, and ask them to carry out commands frequently. Doing so not only clearly demonstrates the owner's dominance, but also gives dogs who are bored, lonely, or anxious during the day something to look forward to. To get food, toys, and petting, let them perform one or two commands first! This means there is no free lunch in the world.

Close supervision

If your dog is found urinating at home, place them under house arrest for four to six weeks. Put a leash on them and tie them where you can see them, or put them in a crate. No exceptions allowed! (Be cruel even if you can’t bear it, remember!)

Neuter and neuter surgery

Neutering surgery can effectively prevent dogs from marking behavior. Surgery is best performed before the dog reaches adulthood or enters heat (usually six months). If neutered too early, the dog will not learn marking behaviors. Many veterinarians note that neutered dogs are healthier, happier, and have better behavior. If the dogs are neutered after they reach adulthood and their behavior needs to be corrected, it will be more troublesome. If your dog is acting aggressive, be careful to prevent your dog from marking during walks.

Get rid of the odor

It is very important to remove the odor from the places marked by your dog. Be sure to spray a special odor remover on all areas your dog marks. Pee may seep into the cushions under the carpet, so remember to clean the cushions as well, or replace them altogether. If you use common household cleaning products such as ammonia, the odor left behind may cause your dog to mark. There are many specialized pet odor removers available in stores.
