Chapter 385 Several reactions of dogs to balls of yarn (subscribe)
Li Yuan: "Haha, so...there's nothing wrong with it."

"Dogs with a strong personality have indeed had obvious characteristics since they were puppies. This kind of dog is generally not afraid of people."

"And this kind of dog generally thinks that he is the master, and you are its follower. Generally, when walking the dog, the dog walks in front, more or less will have this problem."

In fact, although a dog's personality can be seen from an early age, it can also be changed through acquired training.

It's just that this process will be a little troublesome, and it requires professional and systematic training.

For example, on the Internet now, there are many institutions that specialize in training adult dogs to get rid of their bad habits.

It's just that Li Yuan feels that if he puts more thought into the dog's growth process, and exercises with goals and measures, these bad habits will not be formed at all.

Even if it has just been developed, it can be easily corrected.

"One more thing is to test the temperament of the puppies."

"After completing the suppression test, you can immediately put the puppy in front of you, stroke it gently all over the body, and talk to it softly."

"In the process of talking, you can try to get closer to the dog so that it can look directly at your face. And in this process, if the dog already remembers what you just suppressed, it proves that Dogs tend to 'hold grudges', and their temperament is naturally not very good, so even the later training is more difficult."

"There is one more thing, which is to improve."

"You can hold the puppy in your arms, put it on your chest, and then stand up for about half a minute."

"The purpose of this action is to see how it will react in an uncontrollable environment."

"If the puppy can still lie in the arms comfortably in this situation, it will easily adapt to the unfamiliar environment even when it grows up."

"And if the dog is not only struggling, but also reacts very strongly, then such a dog will generally not like to accept the master's domination."

"The retrieval test is also very simple. It is to pick up a small ball of wool that dogs like, and then run and throw it a few meters away in front of the dog."

"Attention, the toy should not run too far away at this time, about three meters is the best."

"And after throwing the ball of wool, the dog has relatively several reactions."

"The first type, the dog will run directly to the direction of the ball of wool, pick it up with its mouth, and then slowly bring the ball of wool to our side under our guidance and encouragement. This kind of dog is the most A good dog that is easy to train."

"The second type is that dogs are not very attracted to toys. Even when they walk to the toy, they just sniff it and don't even pay attention to it."

"A dog like this is a dog with a relatively low level of training."

"The third type is that they are very interested in toy balls, and they like to bite and play with toys, but this process is all by themselves, not with the owner."

"This kind of dog is generally enthusiastic and independent. Relatively speaking, it also needs a professional dog breeder, or an experienced owner to raise it."

"And the last three items left are touch, smell and hearing."

"You may be a little curious, what can be tested in these three items?"

"Actually, it's not the case. The previous items all tested the character and obedience of a puppy, but the remaining three items tested the sensitivity of a dog."

"Like some dogs that are working dogs, the scores of the last three items must be very good, because in the work and life of a while, these three things determine whether the dog can perform well. An important performance for the mission!"

Studio.

"I know, I know. Does the host mean that the better these three items, the better the dog?"

"I can understand the sense of smell and hearing. After all, for animals like dogs, these two are very important in themselves, but the sense of pain..."

"I don't understand either. What is this pain for testing?"

"It doesn't matter what he tests, anyway, is it right to get a high score?"

"No! If you're overly active, it's not a good thing!"

Li Yuan: "Naturally, not all scores are as high as possible. The so-called extremes must be reversed, this is the truth."

"A dog's personality is actually like that of a child. If the energy is too strong and it is noisy every day, then correspondingly, its concentration and patience will be slightly worse. The reason is the same. .”

"These dozens of tests are just for a more specific understanding of the dogs' personalities."

"The first of the three items I just mentioned is the tactile test. During the test, we need to use the wooden and index fingers to pinch the position of the fur web between the middle toes of the puppy's front foot."

"And while you're pinching, count the time."

"Every second, the degree of force of the two fingers is gradually increased, and the reaction of the puppies is observed during this change."

"If a puppy struggles violently initially, it will become overly sensitive to headbands, restraints, and training later on."

"Naturally, if a dog struggles at maximum strength, its trainer needs to be even stronger."

Li Yuan continued: "The so-called hearing test, you can first make a loud sound from the sounding device. When choosing the device, choose some metal sounds at the end. This kind of sound is better for puppies to distinguish."

"After making the sound, we can hide in a place where the dog can't see it, and then tap the device that just made the sound again. At this time, we take the opportunity to observe the dog's reaction."

"After the sound, the average puppy will be a little frightened. If the dog doesn't respond, you should take it to the veterinary clinic immediately to check the dog's ears to see if it is a deaf dog."

"And if the puppy can quickly return to normal under panic, and can accurately find the direction of the source of the sound, then this dog is a very smart dog."

"There are also some dogs that may be frightened by such a sound, and will not be able to come to their senses for a while, so everyone should pay attention, such dogs are generally relatively timid, and relatively speaking, they are more suitable for growing in a quieter environment .If it is too noisy, the dog will feel uncomfortable."

"For the visual test, you can take some cloth strips and wave them in front of the dog."

"At this time, the confident puppies will quietly study what it is, and their eyes will keep turning."
