How to train a German Shepherd? The German Shepherd itself is a working dog and needs socialization training and behavioral training. However, some German Shepherds are difficult to train, which makes our training more difficult. In fact, if we can judge whether the German Shepherd is easy to train when purchasing, then training the German Shepherd will be much easier after buying it home.

Parents have a very good saying: "Three years old is considered old, and seven years old is considered old." The same applies to German Shepherds. Some living habits developed in childhood can directly affect the living conditions of German Shepherd dogs in adulthood.

German Shepherd training methods:

Parents can use the dog's growth period, transition period, influence period, and socialization stage to conduct different training.

1. Growth period

It refers to the two weeks of the first week after the dog is born. At this time, the puppy has no sense of smell and zero vision, so it can only crawl around where it is placed. At this time, parents basically don’t care about it.

2. Transition period

At this time, the puppies have opened their eyes, have social activities, and can lick each other with other puppies. If parents have raised a litter of German Shepherd dogs, they can be trained and educated at this time. When the puppy wants to escape from the kennel, you can hit the puppy in a very rough and direct way, but it should be gentle. Let him understand that the world outside the kennel is very cruel and full of dangers. You can't leave casually.

3. Influence period

That is when the dog reaches four weeks old and seven weeks old. Parents must train its behavior. This is a period when all the dog's living habits are formed. At this time, parents can simply train them to urinate and defecate at regular times and at certain points, so that they can develop a good habit.

4. Socialization stage

At this time, the dog has grown to eight weeks old and continues to 12 weeks, which is the socialization stage. Parents can use this stage to carry out some continuous training on it, such as teaching it to sit, stand, follow and obey. However, the dog at this time can only have a shallow consciousness, so it is still difficult to do it, and it needs to be transitioned slowly.

Summary: More and more parents are raising German Shepherds, and they should also pay attention to the training of German Shepherds. German Shepherds are handsome and cute, loyal and smart, and they are very kind to their families and animals weaker than themselves. Gentleness makes people feel safe when there is danger!
