How to Properly Discipline Your Dog

Don't let your puppies indiscriminately bite whatever object they find; they ought to be taught to do exercise with their teeth using the right objects. You can give them roots to chew on, in particular white mallow, or also pieces of cabbage. I have discovered that a roll of rope provides good exercise for the jaw. Don't leave the used bones lying around on the floor inviting rats and mice to contaminate them or flies to lay their eggs on them.

Once the dog has acquired the habit of making a mess with urine or excrement in his doghouse or in your house, it won't be an easy task to break the habit. What you can do to solve the problem is spray some pepper around the places where the puppy has made a mess; they won't go back to that same place. In the puppies refused to do their necessities outside, you can use an infantile suppository which can provoke intestinal action, or you can introduce the meaty stem of a plant (parsley, for example) into the anus. Once the puppy has done his necessities, pet him to show you appreciate what he has done and take him back into the house. Use these same systems every time the puppy has to do his needs. The puppy will understand what is being asked of him and there will be no more problems in that sense. This is the easiest way to educate a puppy well.

Do not use your hand to punish your puppy. Your hand must be a symbol of affection, to give him food and drink, to pet him, to tie the leash and to enjoy a stroll, but never to apply punishment. When you do have to punish them, on rare occasions, used a folded newspaper or magazine or a flexible slipper. Hit the animal on the paws, never on the head or back.
