How to reclaim a pet from harmful habits?

Pets, whether it is a cat, dog, hamster or a parrot, of course, are sources of joy and good mood. But there are times when my dear little animal's heart begins to deliver his master certain inconveniences. How many pairs of shoes were torn to pieces by a puppy during the change of teeth? How many meters of wall damaged by the growing claws of a kitten? And sometimes that adults reared animals start to "kink." How to re-home wrecker?

The first method , "Crime and Punishment. It is effective only if the punishment should be promptly after the offense. Pets see causation and can not make far-reaching conclusions. If, in the evening when he came home from work, you find a broken flower pot, abusing a kitten - to no avail! He had long forgotten the unfortunate ficus. The purpose of instant punishment - to develop a conditioned reflex. Like Pavlov, remember? "This is when you press this button, but the man in a white coat immediately runs to you with a banana!"

Method Two, "Mousetrap". If you are a busy man and most of the day are away at home, while your animals are forced to languish in the four walls, you sometimes difficult to keep track of their behavior. In this case, come to the aid of the so-called "trap". If the cat is stealing food from the table, to build near a shaky construction of "rattlesnakes," but not dangerous items, such as lids on saucepans. The sharp sound of falling lid deter thieves and permanently break a jump on the table. As seen here, too, produced a conditioned reflex, but without your direct involvement. Figuratively speaking, the hooligan comprehends "heavenly punishment.

Method third, "Do not tempt me needlessly." You can consider himself the rightful owner of the house, train and educate their pets, but in fact it is a reciprocal process. Gradually, imperceptibly, farm animals, too, are trained "their masters. For example, they teach not to leave the slippers in the middle of the corridor, not to leave clothes on the chair, and the unfinished breakfast - on the table. Sometimes it is to make concessions and change their own behavior, especially if it is a change in the direction of accuracy and occasions.

Method fourth, "Feedback." From my point of view, this is the correct and effective method. And is he to give their pet enough attention and love. It is for this people and give birth to four-legged friends! Often, beset by the day, the owners forget about their pets, so they try to remind myself by any means possible - even if I destructive actions. Play with the kitten at least an hour before going to bed, get up early enough and walk with a puppy - it is likely that the ugliness will cease of themselves and the house of peace.

Of course, this article is not complete and comprehensive guide to raising livestock. Here are only general information, and if you want to achieve full mutual understanding with your pet - Learn his habits, read books, consult with experts. Patience and love to you and your pet - a long and happy life!
