How to train a dog to accompany you

dog training methods

1. Put the dog on a leash or rope

As always, let the dog come to you. Bend down and carefully place the loop of the rope or leash around the dog's head. Make sure the dog is comfortable. The leash or rope should not be too tight, or the dog will suffocate, but it should not be too loose, as an active dog will simply break free from the collar and run away. All you have to do is put the leash or rope on the dog gently, without any fuss.

2. Leading

Let the dog stay with you as usual. If it starts tugging or jerking at the neck holster, you can stop and calmly stand your ground. Have the dog come back to you and repeat the exercise again. If the dog doesn't tug all the way to the end this time, you can praise it, or reward it with a treat. Then it deserves its reward.

3. Learn to turn

There's no such thing as walking straight ahead. Dogs will definitely face turns, so it is imperative that they learn to turn under your control. These little tricks should be practiced before leaving the house for a walk outside.

4. Stop and let the dog learn to stop suddenly

While at home, the environment you and your dog face is safe and predictable. Yes, the outside environment is different, you must be able to stop the dog immediately, this kind of control may save the dog's life in a pinch.

Precautions for dog training

1. Do not feed the dog enough before training. It is best not to have eaten within two hours before training (the same should be done before all kinds of training in the future). Of course, training the dog when it is eating will have a better effect.

2. Before training, the dog should be let loose for a while to eliminate defecation. In order to eliminate the "external inhibition" of the dog, the training can be carried out more effectively (the same will be done before all kinds of training in the future).

3. You can’t beat and scold your dog. When you beat and scold your dog because it can’t learn a certain skill, it won’t think it’s because it can’t learn the skill. Being beaten and scolded made me even more afraid to learn this skill.

4. The best way to train a dog is to use the reward mechanism to let the dog quickly equate the training content with the reward. For example, when it does a good job, immediately reward it with a snack, so that the efficiency of dog training will be higher.

5、但是不要过度依赖食物，零食虽然作为训练中的必需品之一，是非常重要，但是过多的零食奖励会导致狗狗只要有零食才服从，没有零食了就不做动作，我们应该让狗狗建立食物是惊喜，主人抚摸也是奖励的心理 。
