DOG TRAINING TIPS & ARTICLES
 
All dogs have an uncanny natural instinct, thanks to their highly
developed sense of smell, for finding and eating available food. In the wild,
they would soon go hungry without it. A dog has no way of knowing that the
contents of your kitchen garbage can are not intended for his consumption. To
him, it smells and tastes delicious. And if he can tip the can over, it’s
available.
Dogs that run loose outdoors can also get into big trouble over garbage.
First, your dog (and you) will be in trouble with the neighbors if he makes a
weekly habit of tearing up the plastic trash bags set out for collection.
Secondly, you must consider the risks to your dog from stealing garbage from
unknown sources. Discarded food is usually rancid and rotting within 24 hours
and could make him very sick. Trash cans also typically contain a variety of
poisonous household products and could include pest control granules which
people have used to get rid of vermin.
To modify garbage-stealing behavior you have to make the experience a
negative one.
If you can catch a dog that regularly dumps over an indoor garbage pail
in the act and scold him, the scolding may do the trick. You'll be letting
your dog know this is not an acceptable action.
If a scolding doesn't work, there are several steps you can take to
modify a garbage-stealing dog's behavior. Buy some balloons and blow one up.
Put it in the garbage can and bring the dog over to the can. Then pop the
balloon to startle the dog. After you've done this, leave another blown-up
balloon in the garbage can. Most dogs will then shy away from the possibility
of a popping balloon.
You can also modify the dog's behavior if you put a mousetrap underneath
a couple of sheets of newspaper in the bottom of the garbage can. As soon as
the dog begins to put his nose in the can, the trap will snap and startle him.
If you decide to use a mousetrap, be sure to put it underneath paper so the
dog's nose won't be hurt.
Alternatively, you can pick up a commercial deterrent spray like bitter
apple, and apply the bitter tasting liquid around the rim of the garbage in
the can, or on the garbage itself. As soon as the dog goes scavenging in the
trash he will get a mouthful of the foul taste and give up the whole idea.
