When should I start training my lower dog?
The training of Xiasi dogs should start at 3 months. Xiasi dogs are very smart. Training time doesn’t have to be long every day.
The basic methods of dog training include reward, punishment, induction, and coercion.
Rewards are a favorite training method for dogs. Through incentives, the dog's correct movements can be strengthened, the developed abilities can be consolidated, and the dog's neural activity state can be adjusted.
Generally speaking, it is best to use food encouragement as little as possible, because often rewarding dogs with food can easily lead to gluttony and food stealing. You can use verbal praise or touch the back of the ears, the nape of the neck, the top of the head or the bottom of the neck. , the effect of this kind of spiritual reward is actually no worse than the effect of material reward.
Punishment is an effective means to stop a dog’s bad behavior. When using this method, the trainer must have a serious attitude and a high-pitched and sharp tone.
Severe punishments include pointing at the dog and scolding it, throwing rocks and books at the dog, and beating with whips and sticks. Of course, these are not beatings with real swords and guns. The main purpose is to threaten the dog. The posture, through the nervous stimulation of its nerves, makes it remember this lesson and never do it again.
Induction refers to the use of delicious food, objects, trainer's actions, etc. to induce the dog to perform certain actions, thereby establishing a conditioned reflex.
For example, if you want the dog to learn to correctly grasp the command "come", the trainer can tease him with a piece of meat in front of him, and the dog will definitely "come" to him obediently. At this time, Yuwan cannot reward the dog with meat. Dog, then it will misunderstand your "come" as "eat". If you repeat this many times, the dog will understand that the so-called "coming" is a process of walking to the owner from far to near. No meat is needed, and after a few more trainings, your dog will definitely be able to understand your "come" command accurately.
Coercion refers to a method that uses mechanical stimulation and deterrent commands to force the dog to successfully complete a certain action. The so-called mechanical stimulation refers to behaviors such as pulling the traction rope, pressing, tapping and tapping.
