Ki jan yo anseye chen ou kontwòl tèt ou nan prezans jwèt li pi renmen

Some dogs just lose their heads when they see their favorite toy. They start jumping on the owner, grabbing his clothes, barking – just to get what they want as soon as possible! This is a behavior that gives owners a lot of unpleasant experiences. How to correct the situation and teach the dog self-control in the presence of his favorite toy?

You need to teach your dog an important rule. To get a toy, keep yourself in your paws! To get what you want, do what the owner asks. The dog may sit down, stand with all four paws on the ground, or offer some other behavior that indicates he is in control. And as soon as she does, immediately hand her a toy.

Give your dog a chance to play, then exchange the toy for a treat and repeat the exercise.

Gradually, you can increase the time during which the dog demonstrates the wonders of self-control. And also complicate the situation by waving a toy in front of the pet, throwing it on the floor, running away with it, etc. Remember only an important rule: the complexity of the task increases very gradually! Move in small steps so as not to provoke a four-legged friend to make mistakes.

Do not forget also that this exercise is difficult for excitable dogs. So take into account the individual characteristics of the dog when planning classes. However, for excitable dogs, the ability to keep themselves in their paws is especially important!

However, the ability to control themselves is necessary for absolutely all dogs. And it is necessary to teach self-control both puppies and adult dogs.
