When the national living standards improve, many people will choose to keep pets to add fun to life and make life more diversified. Dogs can bring happiness to people, but they can also bring troubles. When they see other people’s dogs being so obedient, pet owners will inevitably compare their own dogs with other people’s dogs. Isn’t there a lot of them? Pet owners think that obedient dogs belong to other people's homes, so why do they feel that their own dogs will "break up the family"? In fact, as long as the dog is effectively trained, it can also obey commands and become very obedient. Today I will teach you Learn the "sit" command that your dog understands.

Dogs will never understand words the way we do. It can only understand the behaviors we teach it, and it understands many words the same way. For example, you might tell your dog that "come down" means lie down, but you might also say "come down" when you want it to get off the couch.

However, your dog not understanding the difference will only lead to confusion. This example proves how important it is that when training a dog, it should correctly understand our intentions. In addition, it is also important for the dog to understand our verbal commands because it pays more attention to our body language than verbal commands. If dogs can get the information they want from our body language, they won't focus on our verbal commands.

When teaching a dog a verbal signal, do not allow the dog to simultaneously hear the command and see any conflicting body signals. This is the only prerequisite for it to understand the importance of verbal instructions and learn actions.

“Sit” command

Start by saying "sit" without moving your body. Give the dog a hand signal after 1 second (e.g., using your index finger as an emphasis cue), and reward him as soon as he sits.

Wait 3 seconds between the verbal command and the hand signal. It won't be long before the dog sits down before you give it the hand signal and immediately rewards it with food.

Reinforcement steps: Turn your back to the dog, or stand in another room and give verbal signals to the dog. Use a mirror to help yourself check if the dog is responding to your commands, or if you are in another room have a helper check that the dog is doing what is asked.

Finally, change your body position each time you say "sit" so the dog learns to focus on your spoken command rather than your body position.

After reading the above explanation, do pet parents suddenly realize that training a dog requires a little effort and you need to teach it calmly? After all, its IQ is just like a child. As long as you use the right method, I believe in your pets. AllCan become very obedient.
