Joel Silverman,
infamous dog trainer and a Bil-Jac
advocate, believes in an open-minded approach to dog training. Bond to the dog
with your heart, but train with your brain. In other words, don’t get emotional
about your training efforts. Make it fun for the dog. Sometimes the dog will
need correction. He views the correction as merely an “interruption” of the
undesired behavior.
According to Silverman, It is most crucial to build a relationship with your
dog first. Find out what he likes and dislikes. You are uncovering your dog’s
personality in this phase, which important in order to begin the training
process. Below are five dog
training tips that will make training for successful and enjoyable for you
and your best friend.
- First, get to know your dog and build a relationship with him. Find out what he likes and dislikes. Even notice where in the house he prefers to build the bond.
- Second, set a goal of what you want to accomplish. If you display any doubt, your dog will pick up on that doubt and be less responsive. Have a game plan.
- Third, understand that you will train only part of the behavior in each session. Keep the training sessions short, about two to three minutes. Repeat the session several times a day.
- Fourth, keep it as positive as possible when working with your dog, but understand there is a right way and wrong way for a physical correction. Corrections are merely “interruptions.” Be open-minded.
- Fifth, always end on a positive note. You want your dog to look forward to the next training session. When it ends, go play with him, take him out for walk and just have a good time with him… maybe he give him a treat.
