Some novices may have some misunderstandings when training dogs to sit and lie down, and they will not provide any assistance. Instead, it is completely up to the dog to follow the commands given by the owner. And they often have a question, that is, how long does it take to train a dog to sit and lie down? The answer we gave is just a time statistically analyzed by professional trainers when training them to sit and lie down. But the specific time needs to be judged based on the belief of the person and the dog's learning status. 1. Choose a suitable environment for training.

At the beginning of training, it is best to choose some indoor relief that can make dogs feel at ease and concentrate. Because when training outdoors, we cannot kill the dog’s playful nature, so some new things from the outside may affect their learning and training. 2. The instructions issued must be single. When we give commands to dogs, both the command and gestures need to be single. For example, when using gestures to indicate, do not give commands to the dog. When giving the command, do not give the dog gestures to give instructions. If you give a command along with a hand signal, it will cause confusion for the dog. Overwhelm them. 3. The time and place chosen for training should be consistent. It is best for us to maintain three unities when training every day, which are unified time, unified place, and unified environment. This can gradually promote his training, because most dogs prefer things that are expected. A fixed pattern, a step-by-step environment, and unified instructions are the most useful training for them, and the dog's receptive ability is also very high. 4. Don’t be stingy with your praise.

This is the most critical point, and it is something that everyone who trains must remember. Even the stupidest dog has its own self-esteem. Don't use corporal punishment just because your dog seems to have poor learning ability. Here I hope everyone can use a scientific method for training. This scientific method is to train through praise or encouragement. This will make it easier for the dog to accept your training and accept you as his master. Most of the dogs trained through punishment have psychological or character defects. In more serious cases, it will cause irreparable mistakes to the owner. We can prepare some more snacks, toys that other dogs like, or their favorite places to go. When they perform well or learn an action quickly, we can give them some encouragement and rewards. Of course rewards and encouragement are not limited to material, but can also be spiritual.
