What happens when a dog doesn’t listen to instructions? Is it the dog’s fault or the owner’s fault?

There is a problem with the training method
The effectiveness of dog training is not only closely related to the owner's training method, but also the dog's cooperation is also a very important factor. Some dogs are completely deaf to the owner's instructions. When seeing this phenomenon, the owner will involuntarily increase the tone of the command and keep repeating the command. However, this method is not helpful for dog training. On the contrary, it will make the dog ignore these commands more and more.
The training commands are too complicated
The commands for daily training should be as short as possible. Dogs’ memory is not particularly good. It is difficult for dogs to remember commands that are too complicated. And short instructions are easy for dogs to remember. If the dog cannot remember the password, it will naturally turn a deaf ear to the password. This will not only affect the owner's mood for training, but the dog's obedience will also decrease.
Establish a correct concept of education
If you don’t know what password is more appropriate, don’t speak easily. Once you fail many times, it will become relatively troublesome to train the same behavior again. The owner must have the correct concept of education. Sometimes the dog's poor performance is not necessarily the dog's fault. In most cases, poor dog training results have a lot to do with your own training methods. So don’t rush to criticize the dog. First consider whether there are any shortcomings in your own commands and training methods.
