Indoor Dog
How can I convert my outdoor dog to an indoor dog?
My parents have an outdoor dog named Bailey. He’s 5 years old and has lived outdoors his whole life. I am planning to get my own apartment soon, and would like to take him with me, but I’m worried that he wont adjust well to being an apartment dog. Any suggestions?
First of all, his breed may be such that his preference is to be an outdoor dog. There are certain breeds which prefer to be outside. Secondly, he may be use to using a high amount of energy so you have to be sure to have the time to walk and play with him twice a day or more.
Third, purchase toys, chews and a crate. While he is older, he could get bored and possbily destroy the apartment- and certain breeds are also more destructive than others. Chews and toys will keep him busy and his crate can become his den- his own place to go to sleep. Feed him in the crate etc to make it a good thing.
Fourth, start now while at your parents house. I would bring him in for a few hours every day while you are home. This way he can become accustom to being more of a house dog over time. This is not a process to be rushed and should be done over a month or so. But again, he still needs to get outside and get proper exercise (exercise is one of the keys to having a happy/healthy dog)
