How To Train War Dogs
Dogs in the battlefield have struggled to be appreciated for a long time but that is still to be achieved. As a trainer building trust between you and the dog should be your priority if you want it to follow your instructions. War dogs use non-verbal communication so when training them to think like soldiers concentrate more on the action and not on your words.
It is very expensive to prepare them for the battle depending on the special training it should receive. Training can only start if they follow those small commands you give it like to stand or sit down. You must be consistent on the place you will be training this soldier. Let it be trained in a fenced area where no distractions take their attention away.
If you want them to be obedient take it to the training ground severally. It helps in familiarizing the place such that when the dog gets to the place it knows it is training time. Make it enjoyable and not like a task they must carry out. Every time you go there they will follow you simple commands like sitting, standing or grabbing a ball.
As a trainer let the dog respect you. Respect is essential between a human being and a dog because that will be the only time it will adhere to your instructions. Taking the dog for a walk and giving it nice treatment will not make the animal respect you. That is love therefore respect is acquired when you show the animal that you are ready to protect it in times of danger.
During training one needs to separate their emotions from commands to train effectively. Dogs unlike humans will not respond they can only act. Most people do not get it and end up overworking themselves thus trainers should focus more on what they are doing not the words. They respect someone who seems powerful and in control therefore take charge during training.
Appreciation is essential during the training period. It motivates the dog to have the urge to learn more. Treat them with nice meal or their favourite game after a successful training day. When a dog does the desired behaviour mark it in a certain sound that they can understand and keep doing better. Let them understand that the sound you make gives them a reward afterwards.
In case a dog misbehaves during training you should punish it accordingly. Most training camps are against punishing them but it is just like you would discipline a child. However it should not be brutal and emotional. Make the dog understand what they did was wrong without screaming or whipping them. Let them know you angry click.
Dogs are the future law enforcers and protects of a country. It means they should be treated well and appreciated often. During the training period teach them how to relate with different environments and different people for them to fit in anywhere. They should also be fed with a good meal and exercise often to help in their mental growth.
