1. The best age for a dog to be trained is 6 months or older, of course, not so old that it can’t walk on the trail.
2. The most important thing is to lay a good foundation. First, carry out obedience training such as walking and sitting. Your dog will get used to listening to your instructions. If you give it other instructions in the future, it will naturally be able to master it well because of its intelligence.
3. Go step by step, try to break down the steps as detailed as possible, and learn step by step. Every time your dog successfully performs an action, you must encourage it and repeat the training many times until it is proficient.
4. You should never hit your dog. You should train with commands. Give commands in a serious tone like your parents used to tell you when you were a child, and give encouragement in a gentle tone like when you are older and talk to someone. .
5. Pay attention to letting your dog rest. If you feel tired, you can buy some health supplements. It is not necessary and it is not necessary. Your dog can train each movement for up to 15 minutes a day, otherwise it will be bored and tired.
6. If you are rich and find a good free dog training school and send your dog there to learn, then when it comes home, you must supervise and help your dog review the courses it has learned, so that Only in this way can the pet dog become the best student in the school.
Training plan
Initial training: (for example, 50-60-day-old puppies)
Let him play with his brothers and sisters at the same time. Have started contacting people;
Let him know where he lives;
Call him by name or whistle;
Let him know "not " meaning of the command;
Practice using the two commands "lie" and "go";
Let him know and be able to keep the room clean;
Practice the command "title".
The second step (for example, 90 to 120-day-old puppies):
Training commands "non", "return to the nest" and "lying";
Proceed Mandatory calling training;
Adapting to leashes;
Tracking training “trace”;
Strengthening “holding back” training;
Carry out "barking" training - "barking" and "not";
Further training:
Train along the way and practice "leaning";
Train "sit" ";
Practice "come";
Strengthen the training of "lying" and "go";
Learn the command "fix";
For the above obedience training, for novices, if they train with the dog for 1 hour every day, they should be able to see good results within a month.
This month can start like this: (Each line represents a day)
Training leash, about 10 minutes in the morning, about 10 minutes in the afternoon or evening;
Wear a traction belt for "sit" and "come" training, 15 minutes in the morning and evening;
Wear a traction belt for "sit", "come" and "lying" training, morning and evening 20 minutes each;
Wear the traction belt to perform "sit", "come", "lying" and "sit down" training, 20 minutes each in the morning and evening;
Then use 6 -For 7 days, wear a leash outdoors every day and let the dog practice "sit" at a certain distance; then practice "come", call the dog to you and wait for 1-2 minutes; then let him practice "Lie", walk in front of him and give the "fix" command, walk around him, and let the dog wait for 30 minutes. This training takes half an hour in the morning and evening.
Go to a place where the dog's attention is easily distracted, and practice "sit", "come" and "sit still" with a leash. 30 minutes in the morning and evening.
In the next week or so, we will carry out on-the-go training with a leash. Change speed or direction frequently. At the same time, you should also pay attention to the practice of "sitting", "lying" and "coming" in the past few days. 30 minutes in the morning and evening.
Then use about a week to strengthen the previous training results and not allow the dog to make mistakes. The "sitting" posture should be standard and the movements should be quick. Practice "come" as many times as possible, using sounds or whistles alternately. Practice "lying" in various situations, such as close and far, with and without a leash, and practice with different methods such as sounds, whistles and gestures. For "fixed" training, you can use a harness if necessary. 30 minutes in the morning and evening.
The previous training will be strengthened under the premise of changes in the next week. "Lying" should be performed at longer distances and under various conditions; "sit" should be maintained for 5 minutes without seeing him. Keep repeating the commands you learned earlier; "come" should be practiced alternately with your voice and whistle.
After about a month has passed, the dog should have learned a lot of basic lessons.
The main content of the training plan for the next month is:
"Fast";
"Reliance" without using a leash;
Strengthen the command "go";
Learn the command "continue";
Train "search" and "stop";
Train "jump" and "return" ";
Anti-feeding training.
This second month is planned in four weeks:
In the first week, jump training is carried out with a leash; without a leash, practice "going" and "fixing". ", "Stop"; it is necessary to train on picking up, refusing to eat, barking, climbing, etc. every day. It also needs daily walking. It is best to train for 30 minutes to 1 hour every day.
The second week is roughly the same as the first week. The key is to correct mistakes. The focus this week is on practicing the latch drill over and over again. Let him run free at the end of each day's training.
In the third week, the training items are the same, but the training location is constantly changing, and the passwords are also alternated. Title training should no longer go wrong.
In the fourth week, change locations every day and extend the training time. Completely passed the title training.
At this time, the dog has a solid foundation in various training programs, and his expertise can be seen. If he still needs to continue training, he should choose a training program suitable for his expertise and continue to train in depth.
If used as a guard dog, the following training is required:
Bite training;
Guarding items, "watching";
< p>Attack training, "attack" and "release";Training to control escapees;
Waiting
Of course there are many professional trainings, that It depends on the purpose of the trainer.
Ten suggestions for raising a dog: Treat the dog as a human partner and friend, and only then can you patiently raise, care for and train it. Don't be moody about it, hot and cold. Dogs do not have human intelligence, cannot think logically, and do not understand human language. Dogs can only learn through memory. Therefore, you must be patient during training and repeat a command or gesture repeatedly to gradually help it establish a certain behavioral habit. You must not be too hasty or have too high requirements. The emotional connection between humans and dogs is a prerequisite for humans and dogs to live together as partners. Therefore, owners should have more contact with their dogs, care more about them, and be friendly to them. In contact with people, dogs vary in their eagerness to learn and their ability to adapt. Therefore, we must pay attention to treating different situations differently and not abandon or abuse those who are left behind. During the breeding process, it is necessary to study and understand the qualities, characteristics, and habits of the dog in order to develop and shape it according to its characteristics and human needs. One must never lose self-control when dealing with dogs. Understanding, patience and love should be present throughout. Losing one's mind, beating and abusing dogs is the most undesirable approach for a dog trainer. Even if the dog makes a mistake, the punishment must be appropriate. Otherwise, not only will a good dog be wasted and the meaning of raising a dog will be lost, but it will also not comply with the relevant regulations on animal protection. You must not over-indulge your dog, be careful not to have a partial eclipse, engage in appropriate outdoor exercise regularly, and give appropriate punishment when the dog makes a mistake. This is all about caring for the dog. Rewards and punishments for dogs should be appropriate and timely. Appropriate and timely rewards and punishments will get twice the result with half the effort in training and shaping the dog. Dogs are running animals. They like and need exercise to maintain their health and dog nature. They must not be kept in a house for a long time or in a pen with a limited range of activities. Before choosing a dog and taking it home, prepare a kennel and other dog-raising equipment. It is best to learn and understand some knowledge about dog feeding and management first.
Training methods!!!
Training methods.
(1) Force:
The trainer uses mechanical stimulation and verbal commands (threat tone) to force the dog to make certain corresponding actions accurately and smoothly
a means. It is achieved by using strong mechanical stimulation to strengthen the password, which has a "shaping" effect and is usually called forced training method.
Forcing is usually used under the following circumstances:
<1> In the early stages of training for basic subjects (except for individual subjects), mechanical stimulation is combined with commands and gestures to force the dog
On the premise of making corresponding actions, establish the conditioned reflex of passwords and gestures (the stimulation intensity is medium, the password is
ordinary tone).
<2>After the dog has established a conditioned reflex for the command and gestures, due to interference from external factors, the dog cannot smoothly follow the commands and gestures
When making movements, use strong mechanical stimulation. To strengthen the command (threat tone), so that the dog forms a compulsory conditioned reflex
.
Notes:
[1] Force must be timely and appropriate. That is, as soon as there are signs that the dog does not execute commands and gestures, forced stimulation will be carried out immediately.
Otherwise, the dog will develop the problem of slow movement or even loss of control. Only with appropriate force can the goal be achieved and effectively prevent the dog from becoming fearful of the trainer.
[2] Force should be combined with rewards. Rewards can relieve the nervous system tension caused by coercion to dogs.
It can change the sharp conflict between the dog's excitement and inhibition processes, confusion, sluggishness, inhibition and other symptoms caused by coercion
>
Elephants can also enhance the affinity between humans and dogs. Therefore, after forcing, it is impossible not to reward the dog promptly and correctly.
[3] Should be treated separately according to the dog’s neurological type. Each type of dog has different abilities to resist irritation. For dogs that can tolerate strong stimulation, the intensity of stimulation can be greater. Dogs with low ability to tolerate stimulation should have low stimulation intensity. At the same time, it is also necessary to
flexibly control the situation according to the external influences the dog is subject to at that time. Dogs should be carefully observed during training. If the dog's internal stimulation and health reasons affect the execution of actions, the dog should be released or treated and should not be forced.
[4]Treat them separately according to the training subjects. Due to the different training content of each subject, the scope and requirements for using coercion are
different. For example, the training of basic subjects requires more use of coercion, and the effect is significant. In the training of using subjects
, corresponding stimulation needs to be applied very carefully and no excessive force can be applied.
(2) Induction:
It means that the trainer adopts influence methods that are sufficient to induce the dog to engage in certain activities or uses the dog’s own behavior under natural conditions
A spontaneous certain movement, used in combination with commands and gestures, to establish conditioned reflexes or enhance the training effect of a certain subject
