Finding Solutions That Fix Bad Dog Behavior

Finding Solutions That Fix Bad Dog Behavior

By Sara Reighard


No dog breed is considered to be truly bad though certain dogs may demand more effort than others. Dogs truly want to make their owners happy while receiving lot and attention in return. Dogs' misbehavior is quite common and they can become destructive or naughty but this usually has some good reasons behind it. To get the most out of your relationship, it is important to learn why a dog misbehaves to help teach you ways on how to manage their difficult behavior.

Dogs misbehave due primarily four reasons. They might be lonely, bored, scared or untrained. Not being taught proper behavior can often lead to dogs to misbehave. Many problems are solved with dog training and this includes teaching your dog to obey basic commands, walk properly on a leash, stop running away and coming whenever you call them.

For dog or puppy training in Seattle, Seattle Family Dog Training may come to mind. Seattle dog obedience training lessons and support is provided and in just five weeks, near-perfect behavior can be displayed from your pet. Seattle dog training that revolves around his or her personality as well as creating commands and signals can help show your dog how to behave in several situations.

Aside from generally being untrained, dogs also tend to be destructive when they are anxious. Many dogs have separation anxiety and tend to chew on things or scratch at doors or other damaging behavior when you are not at home. While you cannot stay at home every single minute of every day, there are ways to curb the destruction.

Hiring a dog walking or pet sitting service to come and take your dog on a walk on a regular basis is a good alternative. Owners can rest easy as their dogs can go to the bathroom as well as get their fair share of exercise activities to keep them tired and less likely to destroy homes. If you will only be gone for an hour or two, using a crate can be a helpful solution. You may also want to consider doggie day care centers particularly if you work for a considerable amount of time. Cats are able to tend themselves but dogs rely primarily with human interaction.

Boredom produces several problems. Some dogs have an almost limitless amount of energy while others are quite content with a morning walk or light play time. Dogs tend to find other ways to deal with their boredom such as snacking on our shoes when they aren't able to release this energy off. Make sure that your dogs are provided with sufficient exercise activities, chew toys, fun games and treats that your dog must spend a considerable amount of time with to extricate. They are unlikely to be destructive as Fido becomes too busy and happy.
