Here are 13 tricks for daily teach dog ! I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
1, Training urination and defecation
It is best to arrange the training time about ten minutes after a meal. Cover a corner of the bathroom with newspapers and lay several layers. When the dog has the behavior of urinating and defecating, immediately hold it on the newspaper in the bathroom, encourage the dog to urinate and defecate, and praise them after the dog urinates and defecates, saying good dog, good dog, etc. Then dispose of the newspapers for urination and defecation. Here, leave the lower layer of newspapers, and don’t throw them all away. Put the old newspapers with odor on top next time. When the dog urinates and defecates next time, it will smell the smell and defecate on the newspapers. Then slowly narrow the scope of the newspaper, the last one.
2, Stop and praise training
When we find that the dog has done something bad, we must stop it immediately, and we cannot tolerate it. We must immediately issue the command “no” or “NO” in a majestic and low voice. When the dog does well, we must praise them immediately and issue the command “very good” or “good dog”. The tone of the command should be soft and gentle. At the same time, stroke their heads and backs to express rewards.
3, Wait and come training
The wait command is a very common training basic. It is to let the dog stop the current behavior. Generally, when eating or doing something, the wait command will be issued. The tone should be calm and you can’t yell to scare them. Come training is also the main subject of daily training. First, call their names, and then ask them to come. This takes a certain amount of time. At the beginning, they will not come. Use toys and their favorite food to induce them to come. When they come, praise them. Repeated training will no longer give food, just verbal praise.
4, Sit down training
Sit down training is also a basic subject for pet dogs, and it is a place that needs to be learned. At the beginning, after the command to sit down is issued, the dog does not know it. You need to press their backs and hindquarters with your hands to force them to sit down. When they sit down, praise them immediately or give them snacks as rewards. Generally speaking, the effect of training after meals is better.
5, Lying down training
This training is generally better before meals. When they are more excited, you need to find a quiet place before training, without interference. First, let them sit down, then pull their front paws with your hands, force them to lie down, then praise them, and give them snacks they like to eat. Then continue this step, and slowly they will lie down by themselves.
6, Handshake training
Training dogs to shake hands is relatively simple, and it is also a commonly used game training. First, order them to sit down, then gently lift one of their paws with your hand, then issue a handshake command, and then give them snacks to reward them. At the same time, praise them. Repeating it many times will make them understand your intentions.
7, Training dogs to bark
Under normal circumstances, dogs do not bark casually. Especially for those dogs who do not like to bark, they need to be guided. Generally, before eating, they are more excited and will bark from time to time. Take advantage of these opportunities to train. At this time, you need to issue a barking command to match the dog’s barking. When they bark, give them snacks. If they do not bark after the command, continue to issue the command until they bark again, then give them snacks and praise them verbally.
8, Barking control training
In contrast to training dogs to bark, when the dog is excited to bark, issue a command of “don’t bark” or “don’t bark”. The tone should be majestic, and then cooperate with gestures. When the dog stops barking, immediately give them snacks and praise them. When they continue to bark, keep issuing the command of “don’t bark”. After many trainings, they know what you mean.
9, Go in training
The purpose of “go in” is mainly to order it to enter the dog house. At the beginning, use a leash or hand to force it in, and issue the command of “go in” at the same time. Especially before going to bed at night, when you come back from exercise, you can repeat it many times a day until you learn it. One thing that must be noted is that the position of the dog house should not be changed frequently to avoid confusion for the dog. When you have learned the action of entering, you can try not to push it with your hands, just give the command and do it, then change the place, point out the direction with your finger, and command it to take its place. The above exercises are first compulsory behaviors, and then one command and one action, with clear rewards and punishments; if it is an indoor playful dog, the method is the same. If there is a dog house, it should be made to enter the dog house, or sit in a specific place to show obedience.
10, No jumping training
When the dog sees the owner going out and coming back, it jumps on the body happily. The owner may not like it at this time, but how should it be handled? In principle, it is prohibited. If it is not corrected when it is young, the dog will intuitively express its inner happiness in this straightforward and emotional way. If you want to prohibit this behavior, there are two ways.
The first method of training a dog not to catch people
That when you come back from going out, it jumps on you or your legs, with its front legs raised high or in high spirits, you trip its hind legs with your feet, or step on its hind toes. It will feel pain and give up, and soon after, it will try again. You should repeat the same method again to make it feel that this method does not work.
The second method of training a dog not to catch people
That when it jumps up, you grab its front toes with your hands and squeeze them hard. It will feel pain and give up. The main purpose is to make it associate the feeling of jumping forward with pain. After doing the above two methods, the owner can immediately order it to sit down. If it succeeds, pat it on the head to show praise. As a result of repeated training, the dog will feel that it is better to sit down and wait for the owner’s caress than to jump on the owner. As the owner, you should of course give caress and praise.
11,Training not to bite things randomly
Dogs have a tendency to be nosy by nature, such as chasing moving things. This phenomenon is particularly evident when the puppy is young; if this phenomenon is not prohibited, it will also be “neurotic”, so it should also be trained. In order to achieve the purpose of training, you can take it to an animal that is weaker than it, lure it, and see if it wants to approach, immediately stop it with “no” or beat it, and pull it back with a leash. Follow this method and try it one by one. Let it know why the owner is dissatisfied. In case the bird or goldfish has been killed by it, you should push the dog’s head in front of the remains, let it smell it, and then beat it, so that it will understand why you are unhappy and scold it and beat it. Others, such as potted plants, flowers and trees outside the window, etc., can also be treated in the same way. In addition, some small dogs will bite the heels of visiting guests. This kind of puppy is usually because of its fearful and protective personality, so it should be prevented as soon as possible. The harm caused by dog bites is relatively minor. At this time, it is strictly trained so that it can be taken out safely when it grows up, so as not to cause danger. Otherwise, it is too troublesome to wear a mask on the road.
A dog that is often locked in a cage or tied up, and whose movements are controlled for a long time, is prone to physical and mental imbalance, which will lead to the appearance of biting habits. The owner neither takes it out nor plays with it, and it is especially unaccustomed to people and things outside. Once a stranger approaches, it always thinks that it is going to harm it, so it is better to strike first. If a person is imprisoned in a small world for a long time, his body and mind will also be abnormal, and the same is true for dogs.
12, Training dogs to jump
To train dogs to jump, first find a relatively short obstacle, take the dog over, give the command to jump, and then give them something to reward them. Then let the dog stand on one side, and the trainer walks to the other side, calling the dog over. When the dog crosses the obstacle, give the command to jump, and give them snacks after they cross it, and then praise them verbally. In the future, the height of the obstacles will be increased more and more, and the training subject of jumping over will be truly realized.
13, Training dogs to fetch newspapers
At the beginning, the owner should hold a newspaper in his hand, and then pat it on the ground to attract the dogs to come over and bite it, and then give the command to fetch the newspaper. When they bite it, give them rewards and verbally praise them. After repeated training, we put the newspaper on the ground and let them fetch it before giving them snacks and praise. They will soon understand what you mean. In the future, you just need to repeatedly strengthen the training, and slowly they will know to fetch the newspaper. Appropriate.
