How old is the Irish Canyon Terrier to start training

Generally speaking, dogs between three and six months old are the most suitable for training, because dogs in this period have strong receptive abilities.

How to train a dog not to pick up food

When training, first place the food in an obvious place, and then lead the dog to wander there. When the dog approaches the food and expresses its desire to eat, immediately use a threatening tone and give the "no" command, accompanied by a sharp pull. Bring stimulation to stop. When the dog stops picking up food, reward it. Just train multiple times.

Food refusal training

During training, the assistant approaches the dog naturally and gives the dog food. When the dog wants to eat, the owner immediately gives the "no" command and taps the dog's mouth. At this time, the assistant will give the dog food again, and then give a stronger stimulus when the dog still shows signs of wanting to eat. At this time, the owner gives the "bark" command and pretends to hit the assistant to encourage the dog and stimulate the dog's active defense reaction. When the dog barks at the assistant, the assistant should take the opportunity to escape, and the owner should reward the dog. An assistant can also be used to throw food in front of the dog. When the dog wants to pick up or pick up food, the owner should immediately give the "no" command and jerk the leash to stimulate it. If the dog does not pick up food, reward it.
