What should I do if a dog beats someone? How to correct it?
When a furry dog runs towards you and jumps on you to act cute, few people will think that this is a very wrong behavior. On the contrary, many people will feel happy and excited, and will praise their beloved words or pick them up.
In fact, if dogs jump and jump and jump, it is often bad if they over-develop: especially large dogs, they not only easily hurt their owners, but also easily scare visitors. So how do you change the habit of dogs slapping people?
1. How to correct dogs’ pounces on people?
1. First of all, you have to find something that the dog really doesn't like - such as a water gun or a spray drum full of water.
2. Then, try to make the puppy associate the water gun with the signal "can't do this again" (you can use the password "can't"). For the puppy, the password "No" is to tell it that "this behavior will be punished." The timing of "no" is very important: you must tell the puppy at the moment when it makes incorrect movements that the water spraying action can be delayed for several seconds before doing it.
3. Training process: 1. The puppy pounces on the human body; 2. Say "No" to it; 3. Spray water on the puppy; 4. Ignore it for the time being (about one to two minutes); 5. Continue this process until the dog stops jumping; 6. When the puppy starts jumping again next time, say "sit down" to it; 7. If it sits down obediently, give it a prize.
2. Key points supplement:
1. The most effective way to overcome this behavior of dogs is: circular training. When the puppy jumps towards you, retreat and immediately lure it to sit down. When he sat down he praised it and gave a reward. This will quickly make the puppies understand that to get attention, you must sit down instead of jumping onto someone.
2. When a dog sits at your feet and looks at you, you must be clear that it wants to be paid attention to. If you ignore it, it will jump on you again. On the contrary, if you reward the puppy as soon as it sits down, this behavior will soon disappear.
