Training your pet does not necessarily has to involve a pet trainer.
There are simpler ways of pet training. These include showing the pet
what you want it to do. Pointing at an object is the best way of pet
training. An example is pointing at its cage when you want it to go to
sleep or rest. If you want it to eat, you should point at its feeding
bowl. While pointing at the object you want the pet to use, you should
say the name of the action or object clearly, so that the pet hears the
name. After a number of days repeating the same routine, you can test if
the pest has learned the routine by saying the name without pointing.
If the pet responds correctly, then you know that your pet training has
worked. Other conversational signals are easy for pet training.
Shaking your head or your palm sideways is a refusal signal. At first
you should do it and then hold the pet and make it do whatever you want
it to do. When you repeat the signal a number of times, the pet realizes
that the signal means refusal and you do not have to touch it. It moves
away on its own. The easiest signal for commending the pet is a smile.
This is given when the pet has done something good like catching a
rodent or pushing a trolley closer. Other complex signals are learnt as
derivatives of the simpler ones and it should be a step-by-step process. Pets should learn how to behave whether they are inside or outside of your home. Pets
have the ability to learn behaviors that the owner desires. Instead of
using schools for obedience training, the pet owner can learn to teach
behaviors on their own time. Clicker training is one very effective form of obedience training that can be taught at home.
Clicker
training is not your run of the mill dog training method.It is a form
of conditioning that helps the pet develop actions that are desired by
the owner while keeping focus on the target end results. This dog
training may be different but shows to be quite successful. Signals
and rewards are the key to this behavior conditioning. Clicks of the
tongue and snaps of the fingers, for instance, are great signals to
direct the animals attention to the task being asked of it. Rewards
are also great incentives to drive the pets desire toward the owner's
desire. This lets the pet know that there is a great treat reserved for
them when they finish the task.
After a while the task becomes natural
to the animal. Another aspect of the clicker training is that
corporal punishment is never used when the pet does not perform the
desired action properly. This is one reason why this sort of training is
so much different from classic pet training. Although punishment is
carried out, the scolding is never physical; it is also verbal. Physical
scolding can mentally inhibit the pet and halt training. The sensitive
mentality of the pet is hindered by physical punishment and can cause
severe scarring to the pet's psyche. Verbal scolding and reprimands can
simple warn and encourage the pet all at the same time. This moves both
pet and owner much further toward accomplishing the desire behaviors. Even with the many many conversations we have with our pets, they
really don't know what we are talking about. They only know tones and
sounds, which is why our commands have to be consistent. Please do not
stop talking your pet though. The animal always knows when we are being
loving and compassionate to them by the sound of our voice. When
you are ready to have a well trained dog examine yourself first. Do not
get into the habit of repeating commands to your dog, or they will never
take you seriously. The main objective of this article was to get you
to understand consistency is key! However you decide to go about
training, stick with it and you and your pet will be happy as ever!
