Dog-dominants
You have to understand that dogs are absolutely dominant in all the rocks, even in the smallest can be born an animal, which will terrarizirovat the whole family.
The true dominants are born rarely, and that's good, because such a dog should only be in experienced hands,
otherwise, it could end in tragedy. Dogs, as we all know, gregarious animals. Servants' family they perceive as a flock, where there is a leader, and then through the ranks.
When the owner is faced with trying to quickly understand the dominance of a few simple things and just re -
life.
The first thing that should "absorb" the owner is, "I am leader of the pack, I'll decide when you eat when you sleep when you play ...
If I do not want to, you will not play, you do not eat, you will not sleep ....
I do not want you to play, so you are not going to play now "
(remember now, "watchdogs are on the sunny lawn." lounging like "The Lion King, sedately dremet leader, and suddenly
careless teenagers cleans the game if the leader is annoying and he does not want that to someone at the moment it broke
blessed peace, he is not dirty, he gets up and asks bashing instigators games, until he not be in the position of subordination
and all the others in terrible fear, do not scatter to the corners)
By focusing on these words, giving me this particular setting, breathing in deeply (sticking out her front), owner
should approach a dog-dominant.
A good thing would be that the owner would have presented themselves as "king" or "tsarevishnoy" with a crown on his head, not seeing that the fines had there
underfoot, without lowering his eyes difiliroval past the puppy.
If the puppy is on the road "king" or "tsarevishny", these "royal" person should be lightly poke the "royal"
foot, what would this "trifle" with shustro boxes cleared out from under his feet, freeing the road "Her Majesty".
Only with such an internal installation should begin work with a puppy-dominant.
A few rules to help in the fight for a warm spot in the sun-highest rank in the pack:
1.igry-winning dog is given need, but start and finish the game to master.
2.krovat-not to let the dog sleep on the bed is not Blessed sissy. dog bed is perceived as a "royal" bed
where the leader sleeps. if the dog lying down to join the "royal" bed, she imagines himself to be worthy of the highest rank.
3.stol-table dog is perceived as a huge bowl. in a dog pack leaders eat first, ie If you feeds in
eating dog from the table, you elevate it to rank.
4.otnosheniya-regulate relations in two ways.
-when the dog is responsible for the behavior of 1 is the only leader, and it regulates and sets the rank of the dog.
, where each member of the pack governs the relationship with the dog himself.
For families with children: a dog owner explained how she should behave with the child and at the slightest violation of rank
punish her himself, or if the child has grown, the very darling child may ask sobanke bashing in order to explain to her eynoe place
in the pack.
5.mozhno try to get up, sit, lie down on the place of dogs. ie with the host expressing desire sobanka be playfully
to move and slip away from his place, giving its leaders, to as much as the leader wants.
6. Through doorways, you can not allow the dominant to go first, the more you repel
7. Dining - dine themselves at first, then feed the dog in the pack of dogs is the case.
8. Walks - as said VV Gritsenko "It's you only think you are walking a dog ..." in fact it is you
are walking! Ie leads the pack, namely you go where she wanted. Change of direction abruptly and without predprezhdeniya,
force your dog to follow you and at a pace in which anything for you.
Raising a dog-dominant should begin only after cramming these guidelines and the internal construction of the world
"princes.
Another would be good to remember such a thing-in dog pack, the leader can wallop the offender poses to the submission, or until death,
and the guilty dog never opens his mouth on the leader, even if we see "death" before his eyes.The leader decides every minute
live this slave or not.
Nikita Verkhovskii:
For all the above I want to note the following:
1. Food landmarks - a completely different role in the pack, in no way connected with this dominance. Normally, food
dominants can sometimes challenge even the leader of food, sometimes even successfully. On leadership vozhka is not affected.
2. Therefore, if a person is certainly not meant to be the dominant food to his dog))),
not just any power, but even just a credible solution, do not pass. The role of the dominant food in the pack is not very respected,
it allows no more than to eat more than others. It is unlikely that someone from the owners want a dog with him such a relationship)))
3. To solve this problem with understanding the social behavior of dogs in general are not very useful. No need to exaggerate
this factor in building relationships with a dog at all. Of course, just ignore the social behavior of dogs is not possible,
But we need to understand that the dog sees us at all and do not always like another dog. If, of course, we do not descend
to her knees up))) for examples here not far to seek. For example, everyone knows that the defensive reaction to
another dog and a stranger in dogs is different, these things are not even linked. Ie if the dog is well
fights with other dogs, it might not work for man, and vice versa. The same is true of all other relations between
dog and man.
4. This means that any "dog" means action by the owner will only exacerbate the conflict.
Actions should be purely human, not occurring in the canine social behavior. Variants MBmany, but the basic,
in my opinion - is to develop a dog's unconditional trust in your presence at a time when she eats. I like "kavkazist"
faced with such behavior puppies often. The problem is always solved by roughly the same way:
If the dog finds out that I pull her hands to her bowl with the sole purpose to put there the most delicious and a big piece
it ceases to be protected. Ways to bring to the MB different, depending on the problem of neglect, age dogs, it
physical capacity, etc.
How do I deal with a dominant dog?
Many people, including experienced animal trainers, misunderstand the meaning of dominance in dogs. These people believe that dominance is always suppressed only by force. In most cases, this approach is wrong.
In addition, many believe that we should worry about the problems of dominance only for large dogs, but not in young - and these people are also mistaken. While a large dog (as in photo above) is able to send you to the hospital, the little dog is able to send your child to the hospital. With dominance in all forms must be fought, and if it is inevitable, then at least be kept under control regardless of what your dog.
Over the past 25 years I was the owner of a very large number of dominant males, and so I was simply compelled to explore dominance at least in order to live side by side with some of these breeding dogs, breeding which I did. Now I look at the issue of dominance is not so, as I did 20 years ago. I realized that dominance is controlled by your consciousness and the environment in which there is a dog.
Nobody wants to be bitten: I looked at the scars on the hands of many of my friends and considered himself lucky. I've never had any serious dog grabbed, although I had to work with a very dominant aggressive animals. When I asked friends about their scars, I always got the same answer: "I made a mistake with this dog." Dog bites always come from mistakes in how we treat the dog in a particular situation.
Dogs - are gregarious animals, and the best way to learn more about dominance, this study gregarious behavior. In order to understand better to turn to the research conducted over the wolf packs. In the wolf pack there is always a dominant pair of animals. Wolves maintain their dominant position without fighting with members of the pack every day, they do so with the help of skillful, subtle ways. Body position and posture play a major role in establishing a dominant position in the pack.
Training for obedience
Control means to establish your dominance rule as leader of the pack. The rest of the article will be devoted to how to achieve this in various aspects of the dog. The easiest way to begin this process is through dog training at obedience. Understanding the ideas of praise and correction will be the beginning of a long way to establishing a working relationship and close communication between you and your dog.
I'm a fan of sports Shutzhund since 1974. Unfortunately, for many years, many beginners in Shutzhund people hear: "You do not have to train your dog obedience, until then, until she was a year or until it is otdressirovana to protect." Nothing could be further from the truth than this allegation. In the early years of the Germans, who came and conducted seminars, usually said: "There is no obedience in the first year." What was lost in translation is the fact that they only meant that the coach should not deal with the dog jumps, power apportirovkoy and exercises with the use of coercion, before the dog becomes more mature. It was impossible to transfer that you do not have to engage in obedience to the first year, but, unfortunately, many people have taken this particular translation and tried to live by using this advice. Delaying dog training for obedience has created some problems in dominance for some people and their dogs.
There are many elements of obedience, which can be taught with the help of motivation during the first year of the dog's life - see my tape "Education for a number of walking events" and "Fundamentals of obedience, where there are ideas on how to do it.
While in order to keep his dominance of most dogs require only äðåññèðîâêà of obedience, there are dogs for which additional efforts are needed to confirm the owner as the leader of the pack. What I noticed is the fact that most owners often negligently allow such things to happen that will help develop a dominant behavior in dogs. Later in the article and will address the types of situations.
Understanding the subtleties of the dominant behavior of our dogs will help you understand how to establish yourself as the leader of the pack in their own home. Here are some examples of conduct that they say about a particular dominant behavior in the house:
- The dog sleeps in bed with the master
- Do not allow the owner to enter the bedroom after he returned from a business trip
- Roars around food or toys
- Do not allow you to select toys, showing aggression
- Always the first place in the door
- Makes you play when you are busy with something else
- The dog is very aggressive.
- Shows aggression to some friends of the family and well disposed to the others.
Bedroom.
Controlling dominance begins with the house. The first thing we should do is to take control of the place where dogs are allowed to eat, sleep and play. The dominant dog is not in any case should not be allowed to sleep on the bed. The best bed is always reserved for the leader of the pack (for you). Let your dog sleeps in a dog cage in another room in the house. Of course, if the dog lives in a kennel outside the home, the council is not suitable.
Toys.
At the time, until the puppy grows, he can not afford to become owner of the toys. Owner must be able to pick up any toy dog at any time, the dog must not show aggression. If the puppy growls, the owner should firmly shake him by the scruff of the neck while berating him.
If the dog is older and can bite, you need to fasten the leash and correct (to make a series of sharp falls) for the leash near the toys. If at this moment the dog is growling, it should be a strict dress down in a low voice. Once the dog throw a toy, the owner must get him away before they raise the toy. Before the dominant situation is not under control, this toy can not give the dog again. Only the owner manages the world of dogs and the dog must understand this. One of the points of this scenario is: "You decide what toys to play and for how long."
If the dog does not give a toy, even after adjusting leash, and the owner is not convinced that he can safely pull the toy from the jaws of a dog, there are two options for further action: Ignore the situation - engage in battle only when the will to win. When finally release a dog toy, lift it and remove all. The dog must never play with this toy. If you have decided to speed up the achievement of results and win the war for the toy dogs have a strong need to conduct some preliminary training. First, put on a strict second collar on the dog. Second, tie the leash to a solid sturdy object - "post" (which would not be shifted). When the dog takes the toy, move it to the second leash leash that is attached to the post. Fasten the second for the second strict leash on the dog's collar. Now on a dog leash wearing two, each of which is attached to its strict collar.
Now tell me to throw a dog a toy, and he went away, pull, so that the dog was between the posts and you. Apply enough to spit the dog toy. Once she does, praise her. If you can come without fear of a bite, come and praise the dog a sedative. If she is again trying to grab a toy, when you come, do not go crazy, but just move back again and pull. From the owner of this process should not be a sort of wild, or too hectic. Control yourself and stay calm. Continue to pull the dog as long as it continues to attempt to return the toy when you come. If you do not feel the courage to raise a toy, just toss it with his foot, so the dog could not reach her before.Always remember that to get involved in the fight is only when you can to win it.
This procedure is necessary only for large dogs. Small dog, simply lift off the ground and kept in a limbo until until it does not release the toy. Some kind-hearted owners this may seem terrible, but it is nothing more terrible than the dog biting a child in person.
If you do not plan to teach your dog to a protective service, then play tug of war with a puppy - not a good idea. This produces a dog's sense of ownership in relation to her toys.
If you plan to do sports training; Schutzhund or make a dog a bodyguard or police dog, then you have a lot to play tug of war with a puppy. Necessary to develop a sense of ownership, first to a rag, then with respect to the sleeve or suit dressing. What should be done at an early age, so this relationship to work out that after a dog can win the game several times in the tug of war, the owner can pick up the object in the dog. I realized that to give the puppy a piece of goodies after you took the object pulling - this is the best way to pay for Sacrificed thing. This is also the beginning of training the dog the command "Give.
In his last visit to Holland I saw his Dutch friend, who ruled with his police dog from overdominance KNPV (Royal Dutch Police Dog). This dog went through the hands of multiple handlers before they got to my friend Yupu. The dog was biting all of its owners, including Winterfylleþ until he figured how to treat this dog. Now, when they are engaged in defensive work and Jupp commands the dog "writing", it feeds the dog a piece of meat. Many coaches are serious nose turned away from this method, but I invite them to volunteer to handle this dog is different. Summing up, we can say that we should think and do exactly what he can show the dog who's a leader.
Lunch time.
Dog with the problem of dominance must never allow to be in the kitchen or dining room at a time when the family dines. The worst thing you can do is feed the dominant dog from the table.In addition, the pack leader always eats first and takes his best pieces of food. If your dog lives in the house, always cover it in a cage or another room in your lunch time. Feeding off the table - the worst thing you can do. This will only increase your problems.
Food.
Dominant dogs often behave aggressively outside of its food. Puppy, you can overcome growl and get the dog to allow you to pick up food or to keep your hands near the bowl, until the dog eats. With the older dog, I'm not sure that is to join the fight. If I buy a dog that is aggressive around their food, I usually did not struggle with this, but then this is my dog lives in a kennel.
If I have to correct this point, the dog, which will have in the house, where there are children, I would always feed her in a separate room and only himself.
