Above we introduced a unique golden retriever walking training method, then let’s take a look at how to train golden retriever obedience.

Everyone must have seen the following scene often: "A strong dog rushes forward with all its strength, and the owner holding the dog leash is being pulled and chased behind." What does this situation mean? It means that the dog owner cannot control his dog. For example, when he sees other dogs, he glares or yells, or even rushes out to fight, causing bites (regardless of whether he wins or loses), or It was the master who was pulled and fell. The dog will go where it wants to go without authorization, and the owner cannot control his dog. He can only chase the dog under the leadership of the dog. He cannot control the dog's actions at all, and problems are prone to occur.

1. Dog’s sense of territory

During a walk, the dog will urinate on this tree and then on that telephone pole (especially male dogs, who seem to be unable to finish peeing). This marking behavior must be familiar to everyone. To the dog, this behavior signals to other dogs that this is his territory.

Dogs are group animals, and walking with their owners is also a collective activity. Even if it is not hunting, dogs will feel excited, especially when the walking route is fixed, which will cause the dog to develop a strong sense of territory, such as "This is me." "territory"! So when you see others (dogs) invading, you will naturally adopt an aggressive attitude. Only when the owner is in a leadership position will the situation not get out of control. Therefore, usually the owner must take command and lead the dog to where the owner wants to go. Don't let the dog walk in front of the owner, so that the dog is chasing people instead of people walking dogs.

If the dog owner believes that "marking" is the dog's nature and does not stop it, allowing the dog to do whatever he wants, it will lead to the dog's power instinct continuing to expand. A dog's power instinct is inversely proportional to its obedience instinct. The growth of the "power instinct" will lead to the atrophy of the "obedience instinct". The "obedience" here does not mean blindly suppressing the dog or abusing the dog. In fact, when a dog obeys its owner, it will feel comfortable and can spend every day peacefully without any pressure.

2. “Leadership Training” Method

Foreign dog trainers often use the "lead training" method. The key to this method is that you must not make eye contact with the dog, you must completely ignore it, and you must not talk to the dog. Don't pull the dog leash and keep the dog leash at a certain angle. Loose, when the dog walks in front, immediately change direction and move in the opposite direction. ‘

whenThe dog's leash will tighten the moment the person changes direction, and the dog's neck will feel uncomfortable. However, because there is no exchange of sight, the dog does not know that the owner is "operating in secret", so it will follow the person's direction and move forward. When it walks in front of its owner again, it has to change direction again and follow the person's preferences. If this training is continued by different people, the results will be more ideal.

Of course, the owner must first treat the dog with deep love, and then the dog will obey the owner. When a dog's power grows, it will definitely cause great trouble to the dog owner due to its disobedience. In order to facilitate the training of the dog, the dog owner must take control during the walk and stop letting the dog mark everywhere during the walk. The dog owner can also keep the environment clean and tidy.

If unfortunately, your dog will make noises with you at regular intervals every day, or pretend to be cute, bite the chain, and wag its tail to beg you for mercy, please firmly refuse and ignore it. This will regain your authority and change the relationship between you and your dog. affiliation between them.
