Methods to train dogs to guard things

1. Food guarding training

We first use the things that the dog values ​​​​to teach the dog to guard. First push the dog food to the place where it wants to eat but almost eats it. At this time, pay attention to the "watch" command, and then bring the dog over and pretend to eat its dog food. If the dog barks anxiously, the owner should reward it in time and then give it food. Next, train the dog to guard the food bowl, guard the bones and other behaviors, so that it knows that guarding the things in front of it will be rewarded by the owner.

2. Training the dog to guard objects

First tie the dog to a fixed place, place items in front of it that are easier to pick up, and then give the "guard" command. At this time, you can ask someone to help you and pretend to take away the object in front of the dog. If the dog barks and bites, the person helping you should leave quickly. The owner comes over to pick up the items and reward the dog. If the helper comes over, the dog will watch it without barking or biting, and the owner will give the "bark" command.

3. Chase training

After tying up the dog and putting items on it, ask the helper to run away with the items in front of the dog. At this time, the Han people untie the rope and take the dog to chase. If the friend drops the object, let the dog carry it back to where it was before giving him a reward.

4. Off-leash training

Let the dog sit on the spot without a leash, then put the object in front of it and give the "guard" command. After 10 to 20 minutes, ask a friend to come over with a protective sleeve to get the item. If the dog takes the initiative to chase and bite, it proves that the training is effective.
