Dog Training Tip - Maternal Care Provides Basic Training To The Pup
Well, you do not know how to speak dog language, right? So, you obviously would not be in a position to teach certain things to the pet in a very simple and clear manner. When the pet is being fed by the mother, it will automatically be scolded if it bites too hard.
If it plays rough with its siblings, the mother will automatically step in and punish the pet with a sharp bite. These are small gestures which the pet will very quickly decipher and understand. So much so that a glance from the mother is sufficient for the pet to understand whether its behavior is acceptable or not.
Once the pet has learnt that unnecessary biting or over aggressive behavior is not acceptable, it will automatically learn the lesson from you as well. On the other hand, if you try to fulfill the role of the mother and if you try to teach the pet dog right from scratch, you are going to face many obvious disadvantages.
For starters, you do not know the language of the pet dog. Secondly, you are not going to bite the pet or bit it, right? These are problems that cannot be overcome by employing an expert. Hence, try to take advantage of the fact that the mother also trains the pet for you.
If you want, you can make sure your training process runs simultaneously. However, do not take it away from the mother as it is only going to create problems at a later date.
If you intend to have more than one pet at home, you should make sure that the pet spends some time with its siblings. Otherwise, the pet will grow up presuming that it is a part of a human family and will treat other animals as aliens. This is only going to create difficulties when you try to have all the pets at home all at once.
These are small things which should be given a lot of importance. Make sure you do not make such basic mistakes and regret at a later date.
