Age Limit In Training Dogs Is Purely Myth
It is vital for the dogs training to be steady. Naturally, missing out on an aspect is unacceptable - there should be physical, mental, and emotional aspects for the dog to improve. Having such balance will surely keep your beloved dog nurtured and potentially add more years to the life they will be enjoying with you. You must have extra budget for more food and stuff!
The Mental Needs Of Your Adult Canine
It would be suggested to incorporate more stuff when teaching your dog, don't think that one breed, age or personality is better. All living creatures, particularly animals needs a purpose, having tasks to perform gives exactly this to your dog. Learning an advanced skill takes your relationship higher, and the dog ceases to become a pet. Who knows what the possibilities are if your dog learns enough great skills...he might just as well be your work partner.
Learning more and acquiring new tricks allows your dog to perform many skills without your assistance. Responding properly to your commands opens up more opportunities for your dog. It means that your dog won't be just stuck at home, but also be able to accompany you with your trips and other planned vacations.
Similar to human beings, your dog's self gratification will improve when you teach him new tricks at least once a week. Keeping his mental level alert by thinking clearly will greatly benefit your adult dog until such time he reaches old age.
If your dog is of higher-than-average intelligence or is an energetic working breed, you will have to train him extra throughout his life. Highly intelligent dogs need a job to do, to keep them sharp and occupied and to stave off boredom which, if unchecked, can spiral into highly negative behaviors. And, as we all know from comic books and action movies, the extremely intelligent, when left to their own devious devices, can become frighteningly destructive indeed!
Working breeds require extra training and plenty of mental activity. They also need to be worked more in general. These dogs would pack a lunchbox and punch a clock everyday, if they could. Unfortunately, their paws can't fit through the handle or slip the timecard into the slot! A few examples of working breeds are Great Danes, Australian Cattle Dogs, Border Collies, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Old English Sheepdogs and Australian Shepherds.
Regardless of the amount of skills and training your dog acquired during puppyhood and adolescence, he is likely to develop destructive behaviors in adulthood if you don't give him a job to do. Unfortunately, you can't send him in to work to take your place entering spreadsheets in a cubicle!
As with human beings, a dog who doesn't practice old skills is bound to lose those. There should be a continuous process of learning new skills as well as reviewing the past learned skills and constant practice of their talents as well. It is your responsibility as the owner not just to feed them but to be the mentor, protector and coach as well!
