Or maybe the dog is not to blame?

If the owner intends, in spite of everything, to educate and train his dog, then he should stock up on patience and perseverance. Without these qualities, even a puppy that belongs to breeds that can be easily trained can not be instilled in obedience. What can we say about adult dogs from the shelter who are completely unaware of the correct behavior, or puppies of wayward breeds, for example, Afghan hounds, basenji or chow-chow. dog and man

If you find the right approach, then you can teach the dog obedience on your own, but when you can, you should not refuse the help of professionals. This will help to avoid common mistakes that beginners make when teaching a pet.

Often, wondering why the neighbor’s dog is marching peacefully next to the owner, and mine is fleeing, it’s only worth letting the leash go, the owners attribute the reasons to the nature of their negligent dog. Of course, this also leaves an imprint on the manner of behavior, but most often it is the person who cannot find the right approach, is not able to become a real leader for the dog.

For the owner of the fourth companion, it is important not to back down, to seek and correct mistakes in a timely manner, and in no case let everything go by its own accord.

The basic rules of education and training

If the pet refuses to obey, then scolding him is useless, you will have to completely review the system of relationships and change key points. A number of rules will help in this difficult matter:

  • Punishment should be present during training and education, but it is recommended to use them correctly. The pet must suffer a deserved punishment, but only during the "crime" or immediately, as soon as he stumbled. If, after a misdemeanor, a certain time has passed, then the dog will not understand why this thrashing is.
  • Bans must always be respected. For example, if you can’t take food from someone else’s hands, you should not back down from the rule, even if the adored grandmother has arrived and wants to pamper this cute puppy. dog training
  • It is necessary to teach the pet to complete tasks from the first team. If the dog pretends not to hear the command - immediately punish. And he should do it under any conditions: both at home and on a walk.
  • It is not recommended to overwork the pet and overload it with various commands - everything should be in moderation.
  • The dog is obliged to fulfill the command - if the owner at least a couple of times allows his four-legged friend to fly away, then disobedience is ensured! If the dog is tired, you should wait until he completes the exercise and provide him with a well-deserved rest.

You can not use only punishment, constantly pulling the pet, thereby heating the atmosphere. Dogs are much smarter than they might seem, they immediately catch the intonation and draw conclusions. Naturally, having received a portion of praise and goodies, the dog will decide how best to behave.

Features of a comfortable relationship

Often people perceive dogs on a par with their own kind. But, even if the dog became not just a pet, but a friend, a little son, an outlet and just joy, he still did not cease to be a dog. Do not surround him with excessive affection and care, it is enough to provide a life where there is a place for rules and good care.

Otherwise, the dog will quickly learn that according to the hierarchy he is superior to his masters, and even then we cannot talk about any obedience. If the owner does not welcome physical punishment, then it is quite possible to do without it. If you disobey, you can gently slap a tomboy, accompanying your actions in a strict tone. little dog chewing on a slipper

If the classes are rare and haphazard, then blaming the dog does not make sense. First of all, you should set yourself up for fruitful and regular work. During training, the owner must restrain excessively splashing emotions, you can not scream at the dog, swipe or be offended. When training, the correct emotional attitude, both the owner and the pet, is important.

People should consider that animals, like humans, can experience stress. Naturally, if the dog is constantly in tension, afraid to do something wrong, this will negatively affect its psychological state. The dog is not something that does not want to come up after hearing from the owner a command “to me”, but he will try to stay away from him.

Mode is the foundation of obedience

To teach a dog to live according to the established rules, all aspects should be subordinated to the regime:

  • Nutrition. The pet should receive food at the same time, have a place for feeding, where its bowls are. The same should apply to the serving - the dog should not remain hungry after eating or eat up “to the dump”.
  • Walking. Adult dogs are walked twice - in the morning and in the evening, it is advisable to follow the schedule. Different breeds have their own needs for physical activity and they must be taken into account. dog for a walk
  • Training. Experts recommend setting a lesson schedule and departing from it solely for important reasons. Only one person should deal with the pet, but the dog must carry out special commands regardless of which of the household pronounces them. A dog can learn some commands at home, while for others, street training is important. Moreover, the dog should be brought up and trained from the first days, as soon as she crosses the threshold of the house.

Disobedience can greatly overshadow spending time with a four-legged friend. Sometimes, due to the will of the pet, the owners decide to part with it. But this flight from the problem does not deserve praise, it is better to be patient and achieve a positive result.
