Educational problems of a working puppy are solvable
Education through
prevention
This is one of the most important principles of professional dog
trainers. If you follow this one you will be able to solve the two
problems:
- You will bring up a puppy which at the age of one year
will behave well not only when being in house but also in the
yard.
- You will protect your property which is subjected to a
big danger when a puppy is ill-behaved.
In order to understand this principle and use it successfully
you will have to set aside all preconceived opinions and try to
look at the world from your dog eyesight. There are some
peculiarities of canine psychology you are recommended to know
about:
- Dog is able to comprehend cause-effect relations. Of
course it is unable to understand that gnawing of your shoes
is an awful occupation. Value of objects is a purely human
category. Dog is unable to tell the difference between your
dress shoes and a stick or a bone. Nevertheless, if using an
association method you may teach your dog not to touch your
things and at that the method you use during training of your
dog matters a lot.
- Dog will never accept a beating as a deserved punishment.
Flaps and blows lead to the pitiable result-a dog will start
being afraid of you and will be too obedient but it is quite
undesirable for a working dog. Do not ever beat a dog! This
will not do any good for you.
- Dog studies by trial and error method. If one day a dog
attempted to do something and got a kick out of it or was
rewarded for that it would try to do that again. In some cases
this behavior turns to be a stable acquired reflex because the
dog has acted like that several times and that action has
already became a habit. If the result is negative a dog will
not be likely to repeat it one more time.
