Dogs - Understand How To Get Them To Obey You
How to Make Your Dog Obey You?
Most people contend that dogs are created to obey their masters.
That is why they are considered a man's best friend. However,
obedience is not an innate quality in dogs. That is why it is
important to teach them how to obey commands in order for them
to know in what manner they should behave.
In reality, obedience training is created to impose control over
dogs. These canine friends should know who the master is and who
the follower is.
However, the concept of training dogs how to obey may vary on
styles, equipment being used, or on the principles being
implemented. Nevertheless, all of these things are focused on
making dogs obey their masters.
The question is: How do trainers or these concepts make the dogs
obey their masters? What is the reason that lies beneath the
idea considering the fact that dogs are not humans who can
logically understand why they have to obey?
What people don't know is that there are only two keys in order
to make their dogs obey them: consistency and compassion.
Consistency is extremely important in every training program.
This is because as mentioned earlier, dogs are not logical
thinkers. This means that they don't know and they don't
understand why they have to obey or what does their master
want
from them. That is why it is important to let them know the
things they should do and the things they shouldn't do.
In this way, people should be consistent on distinguishing the
things that should be done and those that are not appreciated.
On the other hand, compassion is needed in teaching dogs to obey
because they are not like humans who will immediately understand
what is wrong or right. This means that people should be a
little more patient when teaching dogs to obey in order for them
to gain the dog's trust.
There are instances wherein trainers get impatient after
repeating one command several times. In the end, they tend to
hurt the dog. In turn, the dog gets hurt and may no longer trust
his trainer.
The bottom line is that, dogs are not humans and they don't
behave like humans. That is why training them to obey needs more
time, more patience, and more understanding from people who know
better.
