Kā apmācīt suni valkāt suņu siksnas?

Vai jums kādreiz ir šķitis, ka suņa aprīkošana ar jaunām siksnām vairāk līdzinās cīņai ar aligatoru, nevis sava labākā drauga ģērbšanai pastaigai?

Why don’t dogs like dog harnesses?

First things first: why do some dogs treat harnesses like they’re the worst fashion faux pas since socks and sandals? Understanding this can be a game-changer. Dogs might feel confined or scared because a harness is unfamiliar and more restraining than a collar. The trick is to make the harness a symbol of fun times, not fear!

Kāpēc sākt suņu jostu apmācību?

First off, why bother with a harness? Unlike collars, harnesses distribute pressure more evenly around your dog’s body, reducing strain on their neck and back. Great for controlling pullers and essential for ensuring your dog’s safety and comfort.

1. solis: Veidojiet pozitīvas asociācijas

Ievietojiet siksnas mierīgā laikā, kad suns ir priecīgs - iespējams, pēc ēšanas vai rotaļu laikā. Novietojiet to netālu no viņa, ļaujot viņam to aptaustīt un mijiedarboties ar to savā tempā. Jūs vēlaties, lai suns uztvertu siksnu kā vēl vienu ikdienas priekšmetu, nevis kā kaut ko, no kā būtu jābaidās vai jāsatraucas.

2. solis: Pozitīva pastiprinājuma izmantošana

Every time your dog sniffs, touches, or shows any interest in the harness, give them a treat. This creates a strong association between the harness and something pleasant. It’s the foundation of positive reinforcement training—you’re rewarding the behavior you want, which is their acceptance of the harness.

3. solis: Pieskāriens un apbalvošana

Once your dog is showing interest in the harness, start touching them with it gently. You’re not trying to put it on at this stage, just getting them used to the sensation. Touch the harness to their back, sides, and underneath them, rewarding with treats and praise each time.

4. solis: Inkrementāls ievads

Now, you’re ready to start putting the harness on your dog, but do it incrementally. Place it over their head or have them step into it (depending on the harness style) and then immediately reward them. Take it off after a few seconds before any discomfort or anxiety can set in.

If it’s a head harness, or you can take the approach of letting your dog take the initiative. Place the harness on the floor and sprinkle some tasty treats around it to associate it with good things right from the start. As soon as they are happy with it, lift it up and feed your dog some of their favourite treats through the head hole, allowing the dog to initiate the head hole, which will greatly reduce resistance.

5: Pielāgošana

This step is critical. A poorly fitted harness can be uncomfortable and cause your dog to dislike it intensely. Make sure you can fit two fingers under all the straps. If it’s too tight, it can chafe and be uncomfortable; if it’s too loose, they may be able to wriggle out.

6. solis: Īsa, pozitīva pieredze

Keep the harness on for short periods initially. Maybe during a play session or while you’re giving them a few treats. You can gradually extend the time as your dog becomes more comfortable. If they show any sign of distress, remove the harness and try again later, always ending on a positive note with treats and praise.

7. solis: Novērst uzmanību un iesaistīt

Kamēr suns ir piesprādzēts, iesaistiet viņu viņa iecienītākajā spēlē vai iedodiet viņam kādu rotaļlietu. Mērķis ir nodarbināt suņa prātu, lai viņš sasaistītu četrkājaino siksnu ar jautrību, nevis ar kaut ko ierobežojošu ap ķermeni.

8. solis: Iepazīšanās telpās

Let your dog wear the harness around the house. They can learn to walk, sit, and play with it on, which reinforces that the harness doesn’t impede their normal activities. Keep these sessions short and sweet, with lots of praise for calm behavior.

9. solis: Atlīdzība Mierīgums

If your dog remains calm and behaves well while wearing the harness, it’s important to recognize and reward that behavior. This tells your dog that they’re doing exactly what you want them to do when they’re wearing the harness.

10. solis. Pāreja uz staigāšanu

Once your dog seems comfortable wearing the harness indoors, it’s time to take the show on the road. Start with short walks outside, ideally in a familiar, low-distraction environment. Keep the mood upbeat, and continue with treats and praise to reinforce how good and fun wearing the harness can be.

Remember, every dog is different, and patience is essential. If your dog seems uncomfortable or anxious at any stage, take a step back, slow down the process, and ensure they’re completely comfortable before moving on to the next step. With time and patience, your dog should come to accept wearing a harness as just another part of their daily routine.
