If you don’t pay attention to training when raising a Shiba Inu, you will have endless troubles when it grows up. The mischievous and indulgent Shiba Inu can make its owner grow three times as big as his head. The best training time for Shiba Inu should be between 2-6 months of age. It is very important to plan how to train Shiba Inu first, and then adopt effective methods to train.
When training Shiba Inu, you must not only seize the best training period, but also pay attention to the attitude and method during the training process. Whether you are treating an adult Shiba Inu or a young Shiba Inu, you should treat both kindness and power. If the dog is indulgent and naughty, you should promptly reprimand and criticize it, and then provide corrective training; if the dog is well-behaved and obedient, you should also give praise and encouragement.
There are many contents in training Shiba Inu, such as eating at fixed points, excreting at fixed points, sleeping at fixed points, patrolling, standing, shaking hands, jumping, following along, etc. When it comes to each training content, the methods used are also different. Or use food to lure them, or use traction ropes to guide training, etc.
Overall, although there are differences in training methods, the basic principles are the same. In the early stages of training, parents should adopt a more forced and mechanical training method for Shiba Inu who are unfamiliar with instructions to guide and teach the pet dog how to complete the training content, and then continuously repeat the training content to enhance the Shiba Inu's memory and obedience ability.
As the training continues, the Shiba Inu gradually masters the essentials of training, so some situations of escaping and rejecting training will occur. At this time, parents can use some food temptations, rewards, and petting and encouragement to attract the dog to continue training and improve its participation. The fun of training also improves the efficiency of training.
