Tips: “Best Training Period”

The best training period: 3-5 months for beginners, especially for large dogs, this time is light and easy to complete the initial training of the movement.

At the beginning, the best thing you throw out is something that your dog retriever likes to eat, and gradually you have to change it to something you like to play with. This way, you will get used to it, and it will pick up anything you throw!

When the puppy is about 3 months old, you can start training this movement. Dogs will sit down after standing for too long. But they still need to be trained to act on the owner’s command.

At first, the puppies did not understand the “sit down” command. Therefore, during training The human should squat on the right side of the dog, issue the command. Put the left hand on the dog’s back, and gently press its hind legs and buttocks. , prompting the puppy to sit down. Repeat this several times, when the dog can complete this action independently and give a reward.

Because some dogs are active, they may not master it after several repetitions, and they can be trained in another way. Take some food that the dog likes and move it back from the front of its nose. The puppy raises its head back unconsciously because of the movement of the human hand, and finally sits down naturally. At this time, hold the dog’s waist and give “Sit”. “down” command.

In order to facilitate the command of the dog from a distance, in the process of training the dog to learn to sit down, it can combine with extending the right hand, the back of the hand is upward, and the posture of pressing down. while issuing the command. When issuing commands with gestures, let the dog face the owner, pay attention, and see the owner’s gestures. After the dog responds to the gesture, try making the gesture alone, issuing commands at intervals, until you don’t rely on the command at all.

Repeated training until the dog formed a conditioned reflex for the “sit down” password and gesture, and gradually extended the distance until it could listen to the command at a distance of 50 meters. At the same time, you should also gradually train the sitting time, from a few seconds to more than 5 minutes or even longer.
