How to train a Japanese Tosa Dog 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 method of training a Japanese Tosa Dog to sit down.

Japanese Tosa Dog sit training method:

First: Establish the Japanese Tosa Dog’s basic conditioned reflexes for commands and gestures.

1. The training method of "sitting on the left side" is: the dog owner first asks the Japanese Tosa Dog 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 Japanese Tosa Dog is forced to sit down under the action of this kind of mechanical stimulation, the owner must go over and reward the little Japanese Tosa Dog. After repeated training like this many times, Songsong dog gradually formed a conditioned reflex.

On this basis, the training is combined with gestures, that is, while giving the command, make the "sit on the left" gesture to instruct the Japanese Tosa dog to sit well. 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 Japanese Tosa Dog 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 once the Japanese Tosa sits down, reward it immediately. Through repeated training in this way, the Japanese Tosa Dog can form a conditioned reflex to "sit frontally".

Second: Train the Japanese Tosa Dog to learn to sit for long periods of time.

After the Japanese Tosa Inu learns to "sit on the left side" and "frontally sit", the dog mainly begins to train the Japanese Tosa Inu to learn to sit for a long time. Generally, after making the Japanese Tosa puppy "sit on the left side" or "sit frontally", hold one end of the leash and slowly leave the Japanese Tosa puppy 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, it is only required that the Japanese Tosa Dog can not move within 10 seconds, and it should be rewarded immediately. Later, the dog's sitting time should be gradually extended, and the method of consolidating and improving should be adopted to reach five minutes. 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 Japanese Tosa dogs to “sit down”

1. TrainingDuring the process, the position of pressing the waist corner of the Japanese Tosa Inu must be accurate to achieve the training effect.

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

2. During the extended distance sitting and delay training, the dog owner must return to the Japanese Tosa Dog 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 Japanese Tosa Inu puppies to learn to "sit down" is an important part of the daily basic training of Japanese Tosa Inu dogs, and is also the basis for mastering other skills in the future. If the Japanese Tosa Inu cannot learn to "sit down", then future "walking" training and "walking" training will be impossible.
