How to train Finnish Lapphund? More and more people like to raise dogs at home. In the process of raising dogs, in addition to giving the dogs a good living environment, they also need to train the dogs more.

The influence of the owner

Among the various factors that affect dog training, the owner has the greatest influence on training. In the daily life and feeding and management of dogs, dogs live with their owners all the time and have the most contact opportunities. This increases the dog's attachment to the owner and is controlled by the owner to a large extent. The owner's expression, actions, sounds, smells, etc. can all become various stimuli to the dog and form various conditioned reflexes. If not handled properly, they can directly affect the training effect. During the training process, dog owners should prevent the following problems.

First, excessive demands are placed on dogs, which often results in frustration in training and even damage to dogs. If the dog does something wrong unintentionally, use a threatening tone to make the dog come to you, and use a rope to show punishment. In this way, when the dog hears the "come" command in the future, not only will it not come, but it will run away.

Second, confuse training commands with sentences for talking to the dog. In this way, on the one hand, it is difficult for the dog to form a conditioned reflex to the command. On the other hand, unnecessary language becomes a new stimulus for the dog, causing the dog's exploration reflex and affecting the dog's normal training steps according to the command. Therefore, training must be conducted in a quiet venue.

Third, in training, the principle of teaching and treating dogs differently cannot be implemented. Instead, dogs with different IQs should be trained using the same method and the same conditions. In this way, the dog can only perform a very simple execution of the signal.

Fourth, exceed limit training. The so-called over-the-limit training refers to making the dog repeat the same action or the same subject for an excessively long time. This can lead to excessive fatigue of the dog's nervous system, which not only fails to shorten the training process, but delays the training time, and some even cause the dog to be eliminated. This situation often occurs when other dog training subjects progress quickly while your own dog progresses slowly, resulting in impatience and over haste.

Fifth, inappropriate rewards. Rewarding food, petting or the "good" command can reward and strengthen dog training. However, unscientific use of rewards can cause the opposite effect and blur the boundaries between right and wrong. Therefore, rewards must be clearly purposeful and targeted.

Impact of climate and environment

1. The impact of climate on training Wind direction, wind speed, and wind force can all affect the training effect, especially the dog's sniffing ability and odor identification. For example, wind direction and force can affect the transmission of odor, change the direction of odor traces and reduce the concentration of odor, or confuse the smell of identification items. Wind direction can also help or hinder the propagation of the command sound.

2. The influence of temperatureWhen the temperature rises beyond the dog's normal adaptation limit, it will cause fatigue in the dog's nervous system. For example, when the temperature is 25°C, the dog's breathing speeds up and the excitability of the nerves decreases, which affects the training effect. When the temperature is below 0°C, the odor not only fails to rise and evaporate, but gradually sinks and floats to the surface, even freezing with the ground, which significantly affects tracking, search and other training.

3. Effect of humidity: Excessive humidity affects the retention and transmission of odors. Heavy rain and snow can not only wash away the odor on items, but also cover the odor and make it disappear; too little humidity, such as long-term Drought can speed up the transmission and volatilization of odor and shorten its retention time.

4. Environmental impact The surrounding environmental conditions of the training venue are complex, such as areas with a large flow of people, vehicles, livestock and poultry. Various stimuli are not only numerous, but also complex, difficult to identify, and can also be masked by other smells. Additionally, different zones retain odors to varying degrees. Generally speaking, grassland, loose soil and woods retain odors better, while cement floors, asphalt fields, bare mountains without vegetation, etc. retain odors for a shorter time.

The impact of feeding and management

1. The impact of feeding on training Breeding and training are closely related. Only correct feeding can enable dogs to participate in normal training. If the tableware is not clean and disinfected, the feed is stale, irritating, or fed with spoiled food, the feed is too hot or too cold, is not rationed, certain nutritional standards are not maintained, and drinking water is not provided, etc., it can all affect training. and use.

2. The impact of management on training. Failure to follow training regulations, allowing dogs to bite and fight with other dogs without permission, or allowing dogs to chase prey and other animals, etc., should be strictly prohibited. In the management of dogs, you must not leave them to others to raise and manage at will. You must pay close attention to the dog's actions to prevent accidental bite accidents; cultivate the dog's good habits, do good hygiene, and prevent private mating to improve the training level.
