Brain Training For Dogs
Brain Training for Dogs, a brand-new course, combines dog training and stimulation to unlock the natural intelligence of your dog. When this happens, problematic behaviors disappear and more pleasant behaviors erupt in their place.
The program was created by Adrienne Farricelli who is a certified CPDT-KA trainer with a wealth of experience in the field of canine behavior modification. She is the founder of Brain Training for Dogs, and author of many dog training books.
Exercise
Exercise is vital to an animal’s mental and overall wellbeing. It helps keep them fit and healthy and reduce the risk of heart disease hip dysplasia, hip dysplasia, and obesity-related diseases like cancer or diabetes.
They will also be active and content. Exercise together strengthens your bond and helps to encourage socialization.
If a dog is not mentally stimulated, their brain can get cluttered with time. They may start chewing on things or scratch furniture.
Training can help avoid these problems and can improve your dog’s behavior around dogs and people. In some cases it can save your dog’s very life!
Additionally, mental exercises can delay the onset of dementia and memory loss. It helps form new connections in the brain and protects nerve cells from degeneration.
Play the Game
Games are a great option if you want to give your dog a bit of mental stimulation. These games are also a great way to keep dogs fit and as active as they used to be or recovering from an injury or operation.
Simple brain games can be played in a small area like a garden or house. For instance, you can hide bits of your dog’s favorite treat within the house (or outside when it’s warm enough) and let them go hunting for it.
These brain games are enjoyable and can be played for just some minutes each time. They can also help your dog to remain focused and sharp as you train them. This helps them learn faster and keep mentally sharp. This can help them improve their ability to focus on their commands and strengthen their relationship with their owners.
Treats
One of the most effective ways to teach your dog to provide treats. This can be an effective method to increase the effectiveness of obedience training and also to stimulate their brains. However, you need to be cautious not to overdo it.
During training it is important to be consistent in your commands. Only give them rewards when they follow the instructions in a correct manner. This will help prevent your dog from getting confused by mixed signals.
Some of the most popular brain training options for dogs include games, puzzles, and mental exercises. These toys are an excellent method to keep dogs engaged and to help them develop confidence.
One of the most beloved brain games for dogs is hiding treats in different containers or cups. The dog has to guess what container the treat is supposed to be in, and if it’s correct they will be awarded a reward.
Socialization
As a dog owner it is your responsibility to make sure that your dog has confidence, flexibility and capability to deal with a variety of situations. In this regard the importance of socialization.
In their early years, puppies have to be introduced to all types of animals and humans, and also different environments. If they don’t get exposure to these types of things they can be scared and anxious.
They may even develop negative behavior, such as aggression or fear of heights.
Socialization can ease these problems and make life easier for your dog.
If your puppy is rough-mouthing other dogs, then allowing them to play with them for long periods will teach them to control their bite.
Socializing your dog with other dogs, people, and in different environments can help reduce anxiety about separation or temper tantrums when you leave to go to work. It is important to start small, and then work your way towards greater problems over time.
