Secrets to Dog Training Reviewed
Recommended Answer:
I am assuming you are joking about the air gun. If not, please be aware that in many parts of the USA it is a crime, punishable by imprisonment, fines, etc. to abuse an animal in such a manner. Shooting your dog with an air gun is NOT -repeat NOT - a "safe" thing to do.
Any time you use force to train a dog you are also teaching it not to trust you.
If you are seriously in need of training help, check the information at http://cattledog.com/training/index.html There are many other online sites that have excellent training tips. You can also try searching by your dog's breed, as some breeds learn some things faster than others. For example, herding breeds usually excel in Obedience classes while hunting dogs excel in retrieving and tracking. All dogs can easily learn basic obedience if you are willing to be consistent, caring, and committed to working with your dog for at least 15 minutes a day.
I have trained more than 3,000 dogs over 30 years. I specialize in rescued dogs and dogs with major behaviour issues. The biggest problem most dogs have is their owner. I work with a lot of very big dogs - Rottweilers, Dobermans, Mastiffs, Pit Bulls, etc., down to tiny dogs. One of my own dogs stood over 7' tall on his back legs. I can assure you that I do not use force of *any* kind when I train. (I am a tiny, older woman.) ANY dog can cause physical harm to you if it chooses. You really, really don't want to go down that road training your dog. Many dogs trained with force as puppies learn that the end of the leash using the most force wins any argument - and you will just teach your dog to be mean and disrespectful.
I'm sure someone will think that I train dogs to be wimps. Untrue. Any dog that respects its owner will be loyal to that person and defend them with its life. The real meaning of training a "protection" dog is being able to call the dog off - not "teaching it to attack." (Yes, I have trained protection dogs, too.) In a dog's mind, you are superior if you are the source of what it needs - food, water, shelter. If you provide these basics on a daily basis, your dog will respect you.
The type of force humans use (like physically causing pain to get a temporary response) really is not the fastest or most dependable way to train a dog. I've repeatedly proven this by working with dogs for half an hour that have been "well trained" by force by their owners. If we both call the dog at the same time, the dog will come to me. I know which method I'd use if my life depended on it.
It takes time to train a dog. They don't speak human -we don't speak dog. You need to work together to find a way to communicate. Most dogs learn faster than most children - how long did it take you to learn multiplication? And you want your dog to learn to perform a complex task that is alien to its instincts in under an hour? Be realistic. Most people who don't succeed in training their dog simply don't spend time with the dog, or lose their temper when they don't get instant results.
If you get frustrated with your dog, take a break.
My best wishes to you. I hope you and your dog form a long lasting, respectful, and even loving relationship.
Understanding The Concept of Dog Training
- Obedience training is the foundation for establishing a better relationship between you and your dog. Obedience training helps establish the owner in the role of "pack leader". Obedience will lay down clear behavior guidelines that your dog can follow. A well-behaved, obedient dog is more than just a pet of pride. The difference lies largely in the training, and good training can save a dog's life.
