My dog is a great picker! Can't Post

Hi to all,

I would like to seek advices on picking up things on road, or whatever she likes to pick. Everytime when I walk with her on the road, she likes to chew or pick up many things on the road and makes me so mad Mad!!! I really don't like dog doing this simply because she may take in dirty and dangerous objects Unsure

Any suggestions to correct this bad behavior?

regards

Banyak Senang. A piece of cake!
A puppy is a puppy, she is inquisitive and like to pick on anything she could find to play with it or eat it if edible. I am glad that you are concerned and worried. My advice to you is, check and break her habit before any harm fall upon her.
You said when you walked with her on the road with a leash or without?
If she is on a leash, my recommendation is that you use a choke chain and a 6foot leash. If your puppy could see an object on the road, so could you. The chances are she will go for that object right? The trick of the trade is you must be one step ahead of her intention. Let her go for this object by giving her plenty of leash. Just before she could pick on it, give her a jerk, as hard as you could and at the same time scold her by saying either NO or NAUGHTY GIRL.
This is what we call, give her enough rope to hang herself. Once may not be successful, you will have to impress upon her that it is harmful and vodoo to pick things up on the road.
If that doesn't work use an alternate method. Have her on a short leash and a choke chain. In you right hand hold a cane, one that your mum used on you when you were young. When she sees an object and wanted to go for it first tell her firmly with a NO! If she still insists give her a whack on the ass and that should send a clear message to her.
Try these 2 methods and see if it works.
As for the final one 100% guarantee will work but this is only the last resort. Before you decide where you are going to walk her, you go out first and place a cooked chicken neck without the chicken head on the road properly spiced with chilly padi, pepper, the more the better and let her pick it up. The chances are, this time she should learn a lesson. If this one also failed, I suggest you find a durian husk and let have a go at it. I am very sure she will be Miss. Napoleon meeting her Waterloo, and you are Duke Wellington.
This is the best knowledge I could advise you on your great picker!.
Regards.

Re: [jason] My dog is a great picker! [In reply to] Can't Post

Hello Hillo
A choke chain is a metal chain with 2 rings on each end.. Tis type of chain is used for training dogs, because U have better control over the animal.
If U r not sure, go to Pet shop and ask them to show you one. Next, I am sure if U have never used one before, U will ask me how to put on. Cannot show U on the net lah. Ask the pet shop people to show U.
Don't buy one that is meant for a buffalo and also don't buy one meant for a hamster. Best is to take your puppy to pet shop and said I want one to suite THIS dog.
Regards.

Neber mind lah, money make money spend what is RM60? Why you don't ask. I got plenty plenty s/s choke chains from all lengths and I got plenty plenty leashes throw away sometime.

Ask and U shall be given,
Ini tak tahu ka?
When moderator sees all these messages, you and I will definitely be the first 2 to cake out.

Excuse me pleases!
From My dog is a great picker topic I see that we are talking about choke chains and show leash. Can I make a suggestion ah! During the course of discussion, inevitably other subjects may crop up. In future, for example this choke chain subject may I proposed that we post it in its relevant forum so that it will not cross with the subject proper.
Do I have your support for this type of co-operation?
Thanks.Regards.

From time to time we do have a little bit of deviations. That is the beautiful part of exchanging information
"When i put him on the floor, he just like to chase me and run next to me.." Make very sure you don't trip yourself and sit on him. You may have to ask how to heal and cure a squashed dog!
