Rolled Newspaper as a Training Tool

[Freedom]

A rolled up newspaper can be an effective pet training tool when used properly.

For instance, use the rolled-up newspaper if your dog chews up something inappropriate or has a housebreaking accident. Bring the dog over to the destroyed object (or mess), then take the rolled-up newspaper and hit yourself over the head as you repeat the phrase, "I forgot to watch my dog!
I forgot to watch my dog!"


"Never, never hit your dog"!

I laughed when I saw it, thought I'd share the fun.

Now I am smiling, reading all the replies!

For a second I thought someone logged on under your name and was trying to get a fight going here! LOL!
That was good!

[RobiLee]

You got me! I opened this up expecting to see some nasty remarks.

Very cute!

I read that in multiple dog training websites and books! I used it on my Tanner, and he never chewed anything but toilet paper. It really does work!

[MoonandBean]

Whew...for a minute I thought I was going to have to fire my trainer. He told me I was NEVER allowed to hit her. Glad to see the trainer would agree with this technique though

So you were trying to respect his privacy in the bathroom, huh?

I usually just let out a "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" loudly towards the sky and Kia will banish herself to her crate.
