Generally speaking, it is best to train Golden Retriever puppies to urinate and defecate at regular times after five months.
First of all, make sure you have enough time to find out its defecation pattern and signs before defecation. Once you find the pattern, it will be easier to train. If you don’t have time, you can change the way to close it. If possible, use a flight box. , otherwise wooden boxes or cardboard boxes are also acceptable. Just be big enough for it to lie down, just put it in and ignore it.
Take it outside directly every time it comes out and give it enough time to defecate. If it defecates outside, give it a food reward in time. If you defecate in other non-defecation places, you should reprimand it loudly, but do not hit it. This method may take a little longer, so be patient.
Pay attention to the fact that dogs do not defecate in the place where they eat and sleep. Dogs generally defecate just after waking up and after eating. Mastering this rule should be easy to train your Golden Retriever to have a good habit of defecating at fixed points.
