Consistency during the training of domestic dogs – a mandatory requirement
It is very important to instill consistency in your approach when training your pet dog. But what does consistency mean? Are you limited to spending 30 to 45 minutes on a daily basis for training? Or is it more than that?
Consistency should not be measured in time alone. Consistency should also be measured in how you plan your training session. Does each training session start with a few exercises that are very easy to perform and then progress to progressively more difficult exercises before ending with an easy exercise?
Well, it’s a consistent approach. On the other hand, if there is no logical basis for your training plan and if you start with difficult exercises in the beginning and then switch to easy exercises and then go back to ultra-difficult tasks for your pet dog – it is obvious that the animal will get confused a lot.
So how do you make sure you’re consistent? It is very important to get a proper understanding of your pet dog’s likes and dislikes. If you know that the pet becomes very energetic in the afternoon when everything is quiet and when it is fed and watered, then you can conduct your training when the dog is most energetic.
On the other hand, if you always choose a point where the dog is very lazy and lethargic, you may need to put in extra effort. Consistency is not limited to the dog. You also need to be very consistent. If you forgive big mistakes made by the dog, but if you overreact to small mistakes, this will obviously lead to confusion.
Eventually, the dog may think that the little things are more important, while the big mistakes are acceptable. You don’t want to present such a scenario, do you? Do you need to log in with one or more than one trainer at a time? It is important to be consistent.
If you are starting with more than one trainer then you should stick with this approach and continue with the same number of trainers. Also, don’t switch sneakers in the middle. Try to keep it still so the dog doesn’t get confused.
If you often find yourself teaching the dog the same thing over and over again, there’s a good chance you’ve neglected this important rule. Focus on these aspects to keep you safe and your workout going well.
