I don't think he has any intelligence or memory. He forgets the commands too fast. I spend 45 minutes daily from 1 pm to 1:45 pm trying to train him but my energy and efforts get wasted.
Reward Dog Training
Recommended Answer:
Chows are intelligent. Training takes time with them because they are intelligent (some say they are cat like) and will tend to do what they want to do. Keep at it, it will take some time, but eventually it will all fall into place. Remember consistency and patience.
Aggressive Dog Training - Expert Advice
- maybe the mutt is ashamed of it's name.
It likes Ginger better. - try clicker training.
- The chow chow is a very difficult breed to train, as they are "stubborn" (for lack of a better word) and independent-minded by nature (think "cat"). I learned this when chow chows were featured on our local news due to difficulties that a family were having with their chow chow.
When you open a door, do you let your dog go in ahead of you?
After a play "battle" with you, do you let him "win" by letting him have the toy in the end?
Then congratulations, you have allowed Cinnamon to think he's the leader and you're the pack, so he doesn't understand why he should listen to you. - Some dogs are just independent and don't like to be told what to do. It doesn't mean they are stupid.
- I found a website that may be of some help to you. I put the link below. When you get there, scroll down to where in RED it says, "My major concerns would be...", then scroll down to number three. There is a box after the first paragraph that says, "To teach your Chow to listen to you, "Respect Training" is mandatory." It goes on to provide a link to their Chow Training page. Here's the link------>>>http://www.yourpurebredpuppy.com/reviews…
It just may be that you need a little more help training your Chow Chow. You could also check with your veterinarian clinic and see if they recommend trainers in your area that have classes to work with dogs and their owners.
Good Luck to you and Cinnamon. - My mothers friend had a similar problem. It was solved by sending the dog to doggy boot camp XD for $1000 bucks. She said her dog came back diffrent and listens to commands and dosent pee in the house and all the good stuff. You could also get training lessons at PetSmart or PetCo that should work. My dog is a keeshound/chow chow, never trained her due to the fact that I was 6 when we got her but she listens but not to commands you will most likely be able to get cinnamon tranied to be a great dog your just gonna have to do it his way (the hard way) I hope this helps you out good luck with your chow chow.
- HEYY!! I have 2 chows myself 3 all my life and they are the most obideint dogs ive ever had and i have 5 dogs right now! it will happen give it time. You shouldnt just spend your 45 mins or whatever with him Chows are stubborn and very very dominant! he just doesnt want to listen he probably knows exactly what your saying hes just being a brat! just work with him all day or at least as long as your around him.
Make it known to him that your the owner and hes the pet.. make sure to use basic commands i mean unless you want him to be an agility dog i think you will be fine. work with him over and over repetition is the best way to learn something. I dont think books are what you need maybe use them for tips but just do what works. If he sits for a treat then carry treats with you for a while and reward him when he does good and use it for other commands too. then after a while he will do it without the treat, im sure he will exspect it but he'll do the trick even without getting one. But the #1 thing for you to remember is you have chosen a very bratty breed so you MUST make him listen to you..they are stubburn and will not want to listen for anything in the beggining but when he matures he will realize whos boss and if he acts out put him in place let him know you wont stand for the way hes acting..
A few things to consider, maybe adding his age to your question.
Or if he is nuetered?
and if there are anyother dogs in the home, that can cause a distraction for him.
Another thing that might be helpful and im not just being an A** his name is long try choosing a nickname for him short names are better for getting a dogs attention and names that have a distinct sound like, Mack or buck or something like that , something short and sweet. Just an idea tho..
Good luck if you have any other chows Questions I'll be happy to help to the best of my Knowledge! Good Luck. - Maybe he just isn't the training kind.
Some dogs are like that. but Chow Chows are so cute :D :D - A 5 month old puppy chow trained for almost an hour straight? No, that is not going to happen.
You need to try short bursts of training throughout the day.
