Have you ever wanted a dog but just didn’t get one because of
the tough time to train it? When you get a dog training it becomes
part of your life with it. Training a dog is important so that
your dog does not end up acting like a wild dog. Training is not
that hard when done properly. Here are some ways to make training
your dog fun and easier. Be
the Alpha Male:
Dogs had
a natural instinct to follow the Alpha male. This is because
in the wild were they lived in packs there was always the alpha
male. That alpha male maintained the order and discipline in
their packs. When bringing them home you would need to be the
Alpha male or female.
When you
act that way towards your dog, the dog will know that there
is someone to follow. When that happens, the dog will gain a
sense of security and confidence because there is someone to
follow. Most dogs even become happy submitting to leader.
Doesn’t
mean you have to be the boss means you treat your dogs in a
harsh way when training them. It should be just enough that
you should establish hat you are the one to be followed.
You can
do these by projecting strength through your steady and deep
voice and being able to also react calmly when the dog is in
a stressful situation also helps. Do remember to give the dog
rewards when something good has been done.
Socializing:
The puppy
you have should learn how to socialize with other humans and
dogs after all the vaccinations. This will help the puppy get
to know more about his natural surroundings and all the other
people he or she will encounter. This will help a lot because
puppies are like sponges that can absorb everything they can
see or learn.
The best
place to go to are parks, or a friends place. When going to
the vet also make the dog know that it’s frightening by petting
it. When exposing the dog to kids, also do so calmly to prevent
the dog from getting scared from raucous kids.
If your
dog gets scared at a new place or another dog, the best way
to calm it down is by distracting it. Make the dog think of
another thing by playing with it and afterwards give it some
rewards.
Be positive:
Instead
of being negative when a dog does something bad, try to approach
things in a positive way. Being negative can only confuse a
dog. When you keep saying “no”, the dog will not understand
what the wrong thing it is doing is. Do you think a dog understands
“No biting of the electromagnetic remote control”. It’s tough
to understand complex things in a different language.
Instead
train her by being positive. Show her the things that are all
right. Show her that it is all right to answer the call of nature
outside by bringing her out and giving rewards afterwards. Show
her that it is all right to only chew their chew toys.
Following
these three things can help make your life easier training the
dog. In the future, it will be both of you having fun. |
