Dog Training & Trash Raiding

"Leave it" dog training command for trash raiding:

I was able to get around this by putting the trash bin behind a closed door. Most bins can be knocked over, and some dogs who have separation anxiety don't respond well to being crated. Adequate chew toys (the rubber ones that can be filled with peanut butter), rawhide, and daily exercise (1 hour at least) will help reduce the trash-raiding habit also.

Consider walking/running them outside for thirty minutes, every morning, putting them into a small bedroom, with comfort and chew toys, a little twin bed, a sunny window, food and water, before going off to work, running errands, or socializing.

Make sure to record the dog, to see how he's behaving, on real-time web cameras, with audio/visual, and adequate lighting. Set up a shady "cave-like" area, such as an open, padded, covered crate for the dog. Use a soothing pherimone spray or diffuser that mimics the scent of a mother, lactating dog.

Some dogs can be territorial, excessively vocal, at windows/doors, try to dig up carpets, break through doors, and glass windows. If you have a smart, strong-willed breed such as a Belgian Malinois, two hours per day of brisk walking, or a daily one-hour run is best, along with:

Weekly, two hour-long, obedience and Kindergarten classes (three months every year) to socialize, re-train, prevent territorial aggression, owner manipulation/dominating behaviors by the loyal, yet determined Belgian Malinois.
