Why do dogs bite when their owners are not at home?

In life, many parents who have experience in raising dogs may have a resonance. When we are not at home, dogs will always be a master of dismantling the house and bite everything that can be bitten at home. Because of this, many parents do not even dare to use leather furniture. So why do dogs always bite when their owners are not at home? What should parents do?

1. Why do dogs always bite?

A. Loneliness

If many pet dogs feel lonely after their owners leave their homes, they will unconsciously bite their homes, especially for some dog breeds that rely on their owners very much, this situation will be even more serious.

B. Bored

There are also many dogs who bite things simply because they are bored. They don’t prepare enough for their dogs at home. They have toys of interest, and when they are bored, they may bite things at home.

C. Physiological needs during tooth replacement period

When the puppy is in the tooth replacement period, the roots of the teeth will be itchy, and at this time the dog will always unconsciously want to bite something.

D. Curious

When a dog first comes to a new environment or is still relatively young, out of curiosity, he may want to know what it is when he sees it, and he will unconsciously bite it.

2. Dogs always bite things, what should parents do?

A. Accompanying dogs

If dogs rely more on their parents and have no sense of security in the new environment, parents should accompany their dogs more and try to accompany their dogs to play games when they are not busy, so as to give the dog a sufficient sense of security.

B. Let the dogs exercise sufficiently

Many dogs will destroy their houses wildly after their parents leave, which may be because they are too energetic. Therefore, parents must set the time to exercise with their dogs and try to vent their energy reasonably. In this way, the dogs will feel tired after their parents leave and do not have that much energy to destroy their houses. Therefore, for small and medium-sized dog breeds, it is best to ensure three to four exercises a week.

C. Prepare toys and grinding sticks

Parents must know how to prepare toys for their dogs when they go out. Dogs during the tooth change period should prepare grinding sticks to prevent bites caused by dogs' bites caused by their teeth grinding. Some pet dog toys can greatly disperse the dog's energy when the owner is not at home and let the dog be a good baby at home.

D. Effective training

No matter what the reason is, the dog always likes to bite things. As long as the owner sees this situation, he should stop it in time and scold it to let the dog know that the behavior of biting is incorrect. He can also conduct step-by-step training, combining rewards and punishments. Every time he goes home, if the dog bites nothing, he can give the dog an appropriate reward.

If the owner is not at home, if the dog always likes to bite things randomly, this is definitely a bad habit. If it cannot be stopped in time, it will also cause considerable losses to the family. Therefore, parents must know the reason why the dog always likes to bite things, and then prescribe the right medicine to solve the problem.
