But by putting up with behaviour in a little dog, that will be fully unsatisfactory, even frightful, in a large dog, were promoting tiny dog syndrome - the inclination of little dogs to be yappy, snappy, protecting and typically sad to anybody but the owner. There's no reason why a little dog cant be as highly trained, quiet and dog-like as any other dog. Do not forget, theyre all the same species, from Chihuahua to Great Dane.
Chihuahua breeds. Its us, as owners, who cause little dog syndrome. They cant agree on anything, they do not get along, they usually do not like one another, and they have totally different philosophies on the way that life is to be run. The truth is, you can train a dog or most pets so you can live your life with a certain continuity, you can started to expect things from a dog, things you can count on. Remember that DOGS are pack animals What does this mean? Pack animals are split up into leader and pr oponents.
Begin by ignoring him when he barks to get picked up or for a treat Do not pick him up all of the time Designate a bed or open-door crate for his space and inspire him to go there when you are busy Don't let your dog jump up on you - a pointed no and / or tiny water gun will put a stop to this Do not feed your dog from your plate, or let him raid your nibbles three.
( In reality its possibly actually exasperating to folks around you so you may want to drop it altogether. ) Stand tall, give your commands in a firm, calm voice. Calm-assertive energy is the term dog expert Cesar Millan uses to explain this mind-state you've got to take to let your dog know, theres a new leader in the town - me. ( Where you put the dog on his back and stare him down ).
