How to teach a dog to give me something

Teaching a dog how to hold objects

1. Train to bite objects first

Before taking the dog for a walk, you can train it to bite and put down on the road. At first, use something that the dog is interested in, such as baseballs, bones, etc., to tease it in front of it, and don’t force it to bite. When you are happy to play, throw the ball out and let it bite.

2. Use props

Hold the toy in your hand and play a passing game with the dog. After the dog learns to pass the toy to the owner, reward the snack in time. Repeat this several times, and the dog will learn to hold the object and put it in your hand.

3. Attract the dog's attention

Under normal circumstances, dogs will chase toys forward. If they don’t bite or bite halfway or are not interested after sniffing, or bite somewhere else, they should be taken to the place where the ball is picked up and put into the dog. in the mouth.

4. Moderate training

The time to train the dog should not be too long, and the number of times of training per day should not be too much, five times is enough, and then play again, otherwise the dog will develop rebellious psychology and will not cooperate with your work.

5. Do not use violence

If the dog is more resistant and unwilling to pick up the ball, the owner should not force the ball into its mouth, as it will make it feel rough and afraid of training. Positive training methods such as rewarding snacks can be used. Praise if you are right, or give snacks (goat cheese), the effect will be better than beating and scolding.
