Chihuahua Training - Let's Get Started
- 18/06/2013
Chihuahua Training can be a real cumbersome thing if you don't get it right. Therefore, most people prefer to have a trainer come in and train their Chihuahua. The thing that you need to bear in mind is that you should get the Chihuahua Training started right away in order for it to understand what is accepted and what is not. In case you opt to do the Chihuahua Training yourself, then you can keep these pointers in mind.
First of all, remember that as soon as you get home your Chihuahua, you need to start the Chihuahua Training right away. Many people do not know this and keep on putting off the training until later and then it does not work to be effective.
So, the first thing that you let your Chihuahua know that it should not spoil your house but go on to do its business outside the house. This is the first thing that you should ensure that you do inculcate in your pet before you move on to anything else. For some Chihuahua this might take time and others might learn it in a jiffy. Therefore, what you need as a pet owner is great patience to be able to get your pet properly trained to do its job outside.
The next thing that really works for Chihuahua Training are commands that are consistent. Make sure that you have a particular time of the day to conduct the training, at a specific spot in the house and also use the same commands all the time. Chihuahuas can understand the timber of one's voice very well and so you need to vary your pitch according to the instructions that you give out.
Chihuahua Training also needs a place where there isn't a lot of disturbance and distraction. These little pets can be extremely energetic and distracted and one sound and you will have your Chihuahua bounding off rather than listening to you.
What works for adults also goes on to work for your pet. The carrot and stick approach to Chihuahua Training has been tried and tested. It works really well if you go on to give your Chihuahua the right kind of praise and appreciation every time that it follows your instruction. Keep aside a particular treat that your pet enjoys and reward it with it when it follows your instructions. This will set aside a feeling that it needs to follow your commands in order to get the treat.
Another thing that Chihuahuas love is lots of attention. Pet your pet and allow it to be able to know that you care for it. A Chihuahua that has praise and attention lavished on it is a far more happier and well-trained pet for sure. Also, let your pet know about what makes you happy and what goes on to displease you. This way both of you will be on the same wavelength and you will have a happy well-adjusted and of course, a well trained pet on hand.
