28975 Home & Family > Pets and Animals Jun 19, 2007 molsted Dog Behavior Problem: 7 Tips To Change Your Dog's Behavior Problem Whether you like it or not, every dog is going to have its problem behavior from time to time. What you do about this behavior problem can make the difference in whether or not your dog changes. Here are 7 tips to help you change your dog's behavior problem. Dog Behavior Problem Tip 1: Control the dog The most basic tip is to get control of your dog. If you can have control over your dog, you will be able to control the dog's problem behavior. You can control your dog by putting them on a training collar and showing them that you are boss. You want to do this without physical punishment if you can. Dog Behavior Problem Tip 2: Stay positive Too many pet owners focus on the negatives and verbally abuse their dog's with "NO" and "bad girl." While you do want to get the point across that it is not ok for them to do what they did, you also want to give them encouragement for what to do right. Instead of saying "no" tell them to "sit" or "heal." Dog Behavior Problem Tip 3: Consistency The number one rule to changing a dog's problem behavior is consistency. You have to get it across your dog's minds that it is never ok to do the bad behavior. Not once in awhile because you forgot. It is unfair to a dog to change your rules or forget because this will simply confuse them. Dog Behavior Problem Tip 4: Have the dog earn it There is a fine line between giving your dog love and handing out love freely. You want to show your dog that you care about them, but make them earn your affection. If you can teach your dog to ask politely for things such as sitting or lying down, they will have much more respect for you as an owner. Dog Behavior Problem Tip 5: Exercise Believe it or not, dogs can get bored just like humans. Boredom is one of the biggest causes of a dog's problem behavior because they have nothing else to do. If you take your dog to the park, play with them and take them on walks they won't have this boredom bottled up. Dog Behavior Problem Tip 6: Learn your dog's heritage Dogs are bred to do certain things in particular, whether you like it or not. Certain breeds are born to stay close while other breeds are born to be wild. Some dogs are born to hunt while others are born to guard. Every breed has a different genetic heritage, and it is up to you as an owner to understand this and then go from there. Dog Behavior Problem Tip 7: Train Every dog is different, but no dog is born with perfect manners. For you to get rid of your dog behavior problem you have to train them to be polite and act civilized. Dealing with a dog's behavior problem can be difficult since every dog is different and every situation is different. By incorporating a little of every tip listed above, you will be able to easier get rid of your Dog Behavior Problem.
