犬の物乞いを止める簡単な解決策

サラ アン リード、ホリスティック ドッグ トレーナー、Pack Dynamics, LLC ® のオーナー

時々、私たちは犬に気づかずにおねだりするように勧めます。方法は次のとおりです。

• 夕食を食べ終わった後、お皿から食べ物をあげますか?
• アイスクリームを食べた後、ボウルをきれいになめさせますか?
• 食事の一部を食べ​​させますか?キッチンで食事の準備をしていますか?
• お子様が食事をしているときにこっそり食べ物をこっそり食べさせますか?
• 子供用の椅子から床に食べ物が落ちることがありますか?
• 次のことを考えますか?あなたの犬が床に落ちたものを掃除機で吸い取るのはかわいいですか?

これらは、人々が食べている間、またはゲストがいるときに夕食のテーブルのそばでホバリングしているときに、犬に物乞いの行動を起こし、助長するよくある間違いです.

犬のおねだりを止めるテクニック

<強い>1.食べ物をボウルに入れておく :犬には常にフードボウルで食事を与えることが不可欠です。あなたは彼らに「人間の食べ物」を与えることができますが、それを通常の食事の1つまたはスナックとして含めることが重要ですが、常にフードボウルに入れ、食べた直後にしないでください.そうしないと、犬はあなたが食事を分けてくれることを期待し始めます。また、後で食べられるように食べ物を取っておき、トレーニング中に「座って」などのリクエストを実行できるように、彼らに渡すこともできます。

<強い>2.食事の準備中にキッチンを立ち入り禁止にする: 犬がキッチンの足元にいる場合は、ベビーゲートでキッチンへのアクセスをブロックして、食べ物を探したり、熱い鍋でつまずいたりしないようにします。赤ちゃんが食事をしている間、口を開けたままハイチェアの近くに立って、何かが空から落ちてくるのをただ待っているだけですか?赤ちゃんが食事をしている間、犬を別の部屋、木枠の中、またはベビーゲートの後ろに置きます。毎食後、床に落ちた可能性のあるものはすべて片付けてから、犬を連れて行ってください。

<強い>3.泣き言は無視してください: If your dog starts barking, whining, or pawing for food, completely ignore them. Don’t look at them, talk to them, or respond at all.

4. Consistency is key: After a while, your dog will realize that their old tactics of trying to get food don’t work, and they will stop begging. The key is to be patient and consistent. They may add to their repertoire of trying to tell you that they want some of your food. Don’t worry, this means that your dog is smart and getting creative to get your attention. Just stay strong and don’t give in. You won’t hurt their feelings; you are just letting them know that they can’t demand food from you. You would never give a child another cookie if they had a tantrum because they didn’t get their way. It’s vital that we have clear boundaries with our dogs and not give in to their demands as they beg for food.

Human foods dogs can enjoy (in their bowl)

Most dogs enjoy variety in their food, just like we do. You can add some roasted sweet potatoes or carrots to their food as a special treat. Raw broccoli is a great option too. Some dogs like sweeter treats, like bananas or blueberries.

Dogs like different textures; some dogs prefer crunchy, others would prefer something steamed or roasted. Just like us, every dog is unique. Make sure that you don’t give them anything seasoned, as it could be harmful. Here is a complete list of human foods and whether they are safe for dogs.
