Shih Tzu (introduction to details)
The most fundamental thing to train dogs is to train their conditioned reflex, so we often use a certain gesture or password to train dogs to do a certain action. In fact, the dog's reflex can be divided into two types: conditioned reflex and unconditioned reflex. So what is the dog's unconditioned reflex? Unconditional reflex is an innate instinctive behavior of dogs, such as feeding milk and breathing. Unconditional reflex is the basis of dogs' acquired learning and training.
There are the following kinds of unconditioned reflexes related to dog training:
< strong > first, food reflection < /strong >
It is a reflection to meet the needs of dogs' metabolism, so that they can live normally. Food can be used to lure dogs to make corresponding actions, and food can also be used to praise the correct posture of dogs.
< strong > II. Defensive reflection < /strong >
It is a reflection of dogs' own protection from harm, which can be divided into active defense and passive defense. In training, we should make full use of the dog's active defensive instinct and cultivate aggressive actions such as barking and biting. For dogs with strong passive defense, timidity and timidity, it is necessary to strengthen environmental exercise and turn them into active defense through encouragement and help.
< strong > III. Hunting reflex < /strong >
Dogs are a kind of nature to keep alive and catch prey. After dogs have been domesticated by humans, this hunting behavior has evolved into the search and possession of toys and articles. Hunting reflex is the premise of all dog homework training.
< strong > IV. Free reflection < /strong >
It is a reflection of dogs breaking away from the limitations of their own activities. Often taking dogs for a walk and play outdoors can enhance the relationship between people and dogs. When the dog in training is in a low mood, it should be released immediately, so as to relieve the dog's stress and tiredness from training.
