Achieving Dog Training Success with the 18 "Don'ts"
A well-trained dog enjoys a happier, healthier life, and their owner benefits from a trouble-free lifelong companion. Basic obedience, housebreaking, and potty training are essential to a dog's education.
While many dog training guides focus on what you should do, understanding what not to do can be equally important. Here are 18 key "don'ts" to keep in mind, each based on canine psychology:
1. DON'T punish your dog when you're angry or out of control.
2. DON'T use the leash or any training tools as punishment. These should be associated with positive experiences.
3. DON'T approach your dog sneakily or grab from behind.
4. DON'T chase your dog. Instead, have him come to you.
5. DON'T coax then punish. It breaks trust.
6. DON'T trick or taunt your dog. It’s unfair and inconsistent.
7. DON'T step on paws or twist ears. Avoid hitting sensitive areas like the back or face.
8. DON'T make sudden grabs. Your dog should feel safe and understand when punishment is deserved.
9. DON'T nag. Avoid constant orders or shouting.
10. DON'T be inconsistent with praise and scolding. If you praise an action today, don’t scold for it tomorrow.
11. DON'T train immediately after meals.
12. DON'T lose patience with puppies under six months. Never throw, kick, or lift them by the head, legs, or neck.
13. DON'T train in complex tasks requiring strength before six months.
14. DON'T skip rest periods. Five minutes of rest for every fifteen minutes of training is ideal.
15. DON'T allow everyone to command your dog. During training, he should focus on one person.
16. DON'T prioritize tricks over usefulness. Foster acts that align with the dog’s natural instincts.
17. DON'T expect instant perfection. Training can take four months to a year. It's a worthwhile effort.
18. DON'T underestimate your dog. He might just expect more knowledge from his trainer.
By keeping these 18 "don'ts" in mind, you can make training an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Enjoy the process, and most importantly, have fun with your furry friend!
