Labrador Training: What You Should Avoid During Training

It isn't shocking to encounter someone who thinks
that labrador training isn't as tough as training
other breeds. This breed, well-known for its good
working ethics, is considered to be one of the
most intelligent breeds in existence hence many
people are becoming fond of it. Proof to that is
the growing number of registered owners in
addition to being famous working breed that
excels in disabled-assistance, hunting,
tracking, detection and therapy works.

While you marvel at this breed's learning
ability, it helps if you are aware of what
training pitfalls to avoid so as you will be
able to get your preferred training outcome. One
of the most undesirable things every dog owner
needs to avoid is the utilization of physical
abuse. Although you have been itching to hit
your dog for peeing beside the sofa, refrain
yourself from doing so since it will only
intensify the issue rather than correct it.
Instead of inflicting pain as a form of
punishment, it would be more helpful to give
correction using reward system. If you catch
your dog in the act of peeing at the wrong
location, distract him quickly, bring him to the
appropriate spot and let him finish there. Praise
and reward him for completing his business. The
same it goes when you catch him in the act of
chewing or digging. Distract immediately and
give him toys or take him to spot allowed for
digging.

Another thing that needs to be avoided is
uninteresting and very long labrador training
sessions. The labrador retriever is recognized
as even-tempered breed but like any other breed,
they do get bored too. To prevent boredom, that
often ends to behavior issues, training sessions
should only carry on for five to ten minutes.
Although it helps to include challenging lessons
and training routines, always make sure to finish
on a positive note.

If you or your furry companion is not in perfect
condition, training ought to be avoided as well.
A labrador retriever, though an intelligent
breed, won't learn successfully if he's ill,
nervous or stressed. In addition, a dog can tell
whether you're irked or angry that is why
training when the the two of you are not
physically and emotionally well is best avoided.

Every labrador training has objectives and goals
and obviously, every pet owner wants these
objectives and goals attained quickly. This
breed may be the most intelligent breed but
remember, training a certain command may take
days and even weeks hence it is best not to
expect too much too soon from your pet. Doing so
will only lead you to frustration thus prompt you
to give up your pet.
