How To Get Your Dog To Like Being Groomed In 1 Straightforward Step!
Are you a dog lover that is fighting to groom your dog? Is your dog consistently fighting you during grooming her while giving him a bath? The answer is simple; you just have to condition your dog to like being touched during grooming and washing.
The best way to do that is by associating the enjoyment of a treat with being touched. This is extremely simple to do with dogs of any size, breed or age. What I am going to show you is an one-step process that you can practice daily and it will only take 5 minutes.
The first thing that you need to do is get some truly exquisite dog treats that your dog loves, or that he doesn't constantly get. For example, you might need to get some chicken sausages or tiny pieces of cheese. You want to make sure that the treats are cut in very small pieces. (The perfect size should be about the scale of a pea.)
Next, you will need to do his touch your dog and then ONE 2nd LATER give him a treat. Your timing needs to be precisely precise otherwise your dog will not learn the touch really earns him the treat. You need to take care and pay very close attention that you Don't touch and feed at the same time. There should be a very distinctive one 2nd period between two.
I recommend that you start by touching a place that your dog is already cushty like his back or on his head, depending on how much he likes that. Ultimately you are going to need to continuously move from his back and head and move on to more sensitive areas, like his paws and nails. Then as you progress, touch your dog's ears, his tail, and nose and lips.
Think of each area that your vet touches when you go for a visit. You wish to train your dog to accept being touched to all of those places so that next time you go your dog will be really comfy during his examination. I also advocate that you ask a pal or somebody that your dog does not know to practice this exercise so that your dog learns to also love being touched by strangers.
It will not take that much time until your dog essentially learns that touch = treat, which means heaps of pleasure! This will work for dogs would are very scared of folk or who've had something horrid happened to them as puppies. I have personally condition a local dog who didn't permit anybody to touch her head and after only a week of practicing this exercise, I could do most anything to her. It was like a totally different dog but all it took was 2 training sessions per day for a week.
So practice this each day for approximately 5 to 10 min. And ask a family member or a friend to tell you if they see any differences. If they don't, then ensure that your timing is perfect. Take care to not pressure your dog with this exercise, pay very close attention to your dog body language and if you find that he is assertive, talk with a reputable dog trainer immediately.
