Pit bull Training- made easy here...
The pit bulls are very aggressive and ferocious; there is no denial on this. This aggression can be mitigated to a great extend by proper training. Pit bull training is not an easy task.
Many owners are of the opinion that the pit bull training is the most difficult part of the pit bull rearing. But the training is imperative as these dogs are overly aggressive. Poorly trained dog is a potential danger to the other dogs as well as the children in the near vicinity.
The house breaking is the first lesson or step in pit bull training. The bladder of the pit bull young ones is very weak. As the result, there will be emptying of the bladder every one hour. Hence the pit bull pups must be taken out of the house for urination.
Take the puppy to the same place for urination. After some time the puppies will find out the place for urination on their own by the smell. Till the time the puppy develops the habit of going out of the house for urination, one needs to have patience. Of course it is difficult to take the dog out for urination at the night till it is on its own.
As the dogs become adults, the bladder gets strengthened and hence can hold the urine over night. There is yet training called paper training. Here the papers are spread at different places of the house and the puppies are trained to urinate on the papers. Some feel that this is not a good technique as the urine soils the house.
As these pit bulls are very athletic, they require sufficient strength and stamina. The stamina of the dog is boosted by driving and tracking. String and a ball are sufficient for this training. The trainer must show the ball the dog and after arousing the interest of the dog, the ball can be thrown on the floor. The puppy will chase the ball and try to catch it. The string can used to pull the ball back.
Pit bulls are certainly intelligent and they respond to the commands very well. Simple commands can be tried at first like the ones sit, run, catch, fetch etc. These commands needs to repeated till the dogs rightly respond, which will make the learning faster. The dogs respond to calling it by name very well. The other important training is obedient training which very essential for the life of the dog.
As discussed earlier, the training a pit bull is not a fun. The trainer requires patience and love for the animal. These dogs are highly sensitive and hence yelling must be avoided in total. If yelled these dogs may try to attack the trainer and will never obey his commands.
A very strong and bold “no” is more than enough for these dogs to stop doing the disliked activity. Continuity in training is very much required. Any break in the continuity of the training will affect the training done till that moment. Hence one may have to restart the training again.
However there are some plus points in pit bull training. The dog is made to behave well, al right. Besides that the owner too gets some exercise. This kind of mild exercise rejuvenates the owner very much. It gives the much needed diversion from the hectic routine.
