How to train a Weimaraner to sit down? Do you also want to let the Eskimo follow you when you go out? Then the editor below will share with you the training techniques for Weimaraner dogs to sit down.

Weimaraner sit training tips:

First: Establish the Weimaraner’s basic conditioned reflexes for commands and gestures.

1. The training method of "sit on the left side" is: the dog owner first asks the Weimaraner to stand on the left side, then gives the "sit" command, and at the same time lifts the collar with the right hand and presses the waist corner with the left hand. When the Weimaraner is forced to sit under the action of this mechanical stimulation, the owner must go over and reward the little Weimaraner. After repeated training like this many times, Songsong dog gradually formed a conditioned reflex.

On this basis, combined with gesture training, that is, while giving the command, make the "sit on the left" gesture to instruct the Weimaraner to sit. When the dog has initially formed a conditioned reflex to sit on the left, then Continue training in combination with walking, that is, stop and sit sideways on the way, and then follow again, and train again and again.

2. The training method of "front sitting" is: the dog owner holds the leash with his left hand, guides the Weimaraner to the opposite side of him, makes a gesture with his right hand, and then gives the command, and at the same time lifts the leash with his left hand. Force the dog to sit and reward the Weimaraner immediately as soon as he does. Through repeated training in this way, Weimaraners can form a conditioned reflex to "sit frontally".

Second: Train the Weimaraner to learn to sit for long periods of time.

After the Weimaraner learned to "sit on the left side" and "sit frontally", the dog mainly began to train the Weimaraner to learn to sit for a long time. Generally, after making the Weimaraner "sit on the left side" or "sit frontally", hold one end of the leash and slowly leave the Weimaraner one or two steps away. If the dog stands up and wants to move when the owner moves, If the dog behaves, the "sit" command should be repeated, accompanied by the stimulation of pulling the leash, so that the dog can sit back in its original position.

In the early stage of training, the Weimaraner is only required to be able to sit still within 10 seconds, and it should be rewarded immediately. Later, the dog can be gradually extended to sit for five minutes, using the method of consolidating and improving at the same time. While cultivating sitting delay, the distance between the dog owner and the dog should also be gradually extended, and the method of alternating from near to far and far to near should be adopted until the dog is hidden 20 meters away from the dog and the dog can still sit still. This is more successful.

Third: Things to note when training Weimaraners to “sit down”

1. During the training process, the position of pressing the waist corner of the Weimaraner must be accurate., in order to obtain the training effect.

2. Be patient. Especially for Weimaraners who are more easily excited, you need to be patient when cultivating a sitting delay. The requirements should not be too high each time, and the range should not be too large.

2. In the extended distance sitting and delay training, the dog owner must return to the Weimaraner every time to reward it, and cannot save trouble by calling the dog to come and reward it. At the same time, pay attention to step by step when training.

Training Weimaraner puppies to learn to "sit" is an important part of daily basic training for Weimaraners, and it is also the basis for mastering other skills in the future. If the Weimaraner cannot learn to "sit", then future "walking" training and "walking" training will be impossible.
