How to train Finnish hounds? Generally, pet dogs that are raised will give them some basic training. Training them can help them develop good living habits and be more adaptable to human life. However, pay attention to training skills, scientific and reasonable training methods can achieve twice the result with half the effort. How is the Finnish Hound trained? Let’s learn it.
Using the appetite reflex: Before feeding the dog or when the dog is hungry, the trainer picks up the food bowl or holds the food, and stands outside the kennel door to lure the dog. The dog is very excited because of the eagerness to get food. At this time, issuing commands and gestures, while teasing in front of the dog with food, the dog can bark. In the early stage, as long as the dog barks, the dog should be rewarded with food immediately. Eat a little less, and then let the dog bark, and after the bark, give it some food, and train it five or six times in a row. This is more effective in dogs with a dominant food response. In the future training, the food lure can be gradually reduced until it is completely cancelled, and the training site should be changed frequently, so that the dog barks completely according to the password and gesture.
Use defensive reflexes: When dogs bark when they find strangers or other dogs approaching in the barn, the trainer can issue commands and gestures in time to direct the dogs to bark and reward them. You can also lead the dog to your side, and let the trainer slowly approach the dog from a distance and tease the dog. When the dog’s attention or alertness is aroused, the trainer points to the trainer with his right hand and “barks” to the dog. ” password to stimulate the dog’s excitement. When the dog barks or barks, it should be rewarded immediately with a “good” password and petting, and the trainer will stop teasing or concealment by taking the opportunity of the trainer to reward the dog. Then continue to make the dog bark. In this way, after several trainings, the basic conditioned reflex can be formed. Later, the trainer’s teasing can be gradually reduced and eliminated, and the dog’s barking can only be caused by passwords and gestures. This method is more effective for dogs in which the active defensive response is dominant. But it should not be used too much, so as not to make the dog develop a bad relationship with people barking.
(3) Use of attachment: Take the dog to a strange and quiet place and tie it to a firm object. The trainer first tries to arouse the dog’s excitement, then immediately leaves the dog and walks a certain distance, calling the dog’s name while walking. The dog barks in a hurry when it sees the trainer walking away and hears its name being called. At this time, the trainer should immediately command the dog to bark with passwords and gestures. After a few barks, the trainer will run to the dog and give pets and food rewards. In this way, the frontier training is carried out two or three times, and then the dogs are released. Later training, you can gradually shorten the distance away, until you can make the dog bark without leaving.
(4) Use of free reflex: When the dog was imprisoned for a long time and could not move freely, the dog showed the desire to get out of the kennel. Therefore, it should be used to direct the dog to bark with barking passwords and gestures before releasing the dog. If the dog barks, the dog will be released from the kennel to reward the dog.
(5) Utilize the hunting reflex: The most convenient and quick training method for the excited dog is to use the desire to acquire. After using the object to guide the dog, use the dog bark password or gesture to command the dog bark. If the dog can bark, reward the dog with an item; if the dog does not bark when excited, you should tie the dog to a fixed object suddenly at the same time as the dog is adjusted, and leave the dog to continue to guide and command the dog to bark. If the dog can bark, you should immediately return to the dog to reward the dog.
