To train Tibetan Mastiff, you should start with easy subjects first, and then proceed from easy to difficult, and gradually advance from easy to difficult; some more complex combined movements need to be trained separately and then combined.

Three stages of training from easy to difficult

1. In a relatively quiet environment: conduct simple training such as walking and following, use language and gestures to let the Tibetan Mastiff complete the actions, and reward the dog when it is completed.

2. In a slightly complex environment: For example, if other people are present, let the Tibetan Mastiff complete the above training subjects. In addition to rewards, it is also necessary to reduce conditioned reflexes, such as only giving commands and not making gestures until the Tibetan Mastiff completes the action.

3. In a complex environment: for example, in a place with a lot of people, give the command so that the Tibetan Mastiff can complete the movements even if there is interference, and the training will be declared a success!

Eleven basic training methods:

①:‘Brief’

It is very easy to make Tibetan Mastiff bark. You can hold food in your hand and let the Tibetan Mastiff smell it to make it want to eat it. Then put your hand to your mouth and learn to bark a few times. If you repeat this, the Tibetan Mastiff will feel the meaning and bark.

②:‘quiet’

After the Tibetan Mastiff learns to bark, how to make it stop barking? Especially when it calls endlessly, what methods should be used to stop it.

You can hold your thumb, index finger, middle finger, and three fingers together and straighten them. The index finger and middle finger press on the thumb to form a clamp shape. The ring finger and little finger are bent, stretched forward and raised, and the command "quiet" is issued in your mouth. If the Tibetan Mastiff cannot understand it, you can threaten it. Stop until the Tibetan Mastiff understands what it means.

③:‘Come’

You can hold the food that the Tibetan Mastiff likes, and then make the hand gesture to make the sound of the word. After doing this a few times, the Tibetan Mastiff will understand its meaning.

④:‘Go’

It is to train the Tibetan Mastiff to walk away. You can straighten your fingers downward, palm inward, and swing your palm outward to make the sound of "go". If the Tibetan Mastiff doesn't respond, you can pretend to be stern or make a move to hit it.

⑤:‘Let’s go”

Just let the Tibetan Mastiff walk with its owner. You can pull the Tibetan Mastiff with your hands to walk, then stop, make a walking sound, and then walk again. Just repeat this.

⑥:‘Run’

When taking the Tibetan Mastiff for a walk, you can suddenly call its name and then shout the command to run.

⑦:‘Come up’

Take the food that the Tibetan Mastiff likes and put it on a high place, and make an upward sound to the Tibetan Mastiff below. Repeatedly.

⑧:‘Come down’

The principle is actually the same as when training. You can let the Tibetan Mastiff stand high. If you stand down with food and speak to the Tibetan Mastiff, the Tibetan Mastiff will immediately rush down when he hears the sound and food from a high place.

⑨:‘Jump’

Set up obstacles, lead the Tibetan Mastiff in front of the obstacles, and make jumping sounds. Let the Tibetan Mastiff jump over until you find the Tibetan Mastiff and can jump over alone.

⑩: ‘Get down’

Call the Tibetan Mastiff’s name and say lie down in a gentle tone, while your colleague moves his hands up and down. After doing the play commands and actions, immediately push the Tibetan Mastiff down.

11: ‘Stand’

After giving the command to stand, you can grab the Tibetan Mastiff’s legs and force it to stand up. Results can be achieved with multiple training sessions.

Tibetan Mastiff is spiritual, so it is very smart. As long as you have the patience to repeat it several times during training, it can remember these passwords and quickly achieve the purpose of training. After patient, meticulous and unremitting training, you can do it, be obedient and listen to what you say
