To speak of dog training I must first say what it is. I have read several different definitions, there appears to be a common understanding to describe this discipline, but I think the best fit is that of Rodrigo Trigosso of Dog, which considers:
The training dogs is the process by which a person achieves a dog to learn and acquire skills in something and keep that skill.
this in mind, issues that I have spoken and the socializing of the puppy and the family dog \u200b\u200band human have a training component. In the stage of socialization we are making our puppy acquire skills related to social behavior, which accompanied him throughout his life the same way that when you educate them to interact properly with their human family we are also training them in some way. With these two examples we can see the importance of training our dog to be seamlessly integrated into our society.
Although I have often joked that our educated Wolf Hess as a puppy, training itself has to do a person, much as there are things you learn one or other dogs. This training process is not only to get the dog to learn a skill, but should be trained to maintain and do not forget learned. Areas
training
When we train our dog we always imagine him running through a circuit, learning to locate drugs or attacking a thief to immobilize it. Nothing is further from reality, probably our dog does not need to learn any of those skills, but others are also part of one of the four areas of dog training:
- canine Education: it is the set of behaviors that will allow the dog to live in our society, showing what you can do and what not to do. Part of this area of \u200b\u200bsocialization, to educate them to make their needs in designated areas or walking on a leash. Are basic things you should teach any dog.
- Basic Obedience: while in the previous section that teaches the dog you are behaviors, obedience is a series of exercises to do when asked, such as sit, lie or go to our call , among others. Improved communication between owner and dog and is also a type of training recommended to avoid disruption of nesting. Sports Training
- : is intended for participation in dog sports like agility and canine freestyle.
- Working Dogs: of the four areas is perhaps the most specialized training includes the dogs that made human functions: guide dogs for the blind, rescue dogs, drug detection dogs, etc.
To conclude this introduction, we will discuss the three training techniques used today. These methods to teach the dog that reinforcements are based on different types to get to learn different skills. Although applied here summarize the dog, most can be used and are used with other kinds of animals.
- Traditional Dog training: it is the oldest of the three, since it is based on the techniques used to train military dogs in the first world war. The medium of instruction are negative reinforcement and punishment. The s negative reinforcements are to strengthen the conduct that is intended to learn the dog to provoke an unpleasant situation if it can avoid running such conduct. Put another way, punishment is applied to the dog it will take off if it does what we want. The punishment are an unpleasant situation that provokes the dog if he does something he should not. Besides all this, are also used collars barbed, drowning and electric shock.
- Dog training positive: back to the traditional development, began to operate commercially in 1942, but began to have some spread to 90. It is based on positive reinforcement , consisting of rewarding desired behaviors to increase the interest of the dog in such behavior we want to learn. If however the dog has done something wrong, does not apply punishment, but he notes with a signal.
- Clicker Training: is a method developed in the 60 and little known even to the training of dogs, but perhaps is the best results can give us. It is based on a "clicker", which is nothing more than a little box "clicks." In a first step must be the dog to associate the sound of the clicker to something pleasant, such as food. Then each time the dog performs the behavior you want to teach, we click and reward, so learn it and perform frequently. It is then that before you make such conduct, we give the order and do the rest of the sequence.
