Often people, having brought home a puppy of a Labrador, are so fascinated by it that begin to perceive it as a soft toy, absolutely forgetting that the dog is the animal having the congenital instincts given by the nature which in a certain way affect his behavior otherwise. And when one day it becomes clear that the kid has sharp teeth, and he can bite quite sensitively by a hand or for a leg, at once there is a puzzled question, and what will be farther?
Instruction
1. Up to 4 months of a jaw of puppies are still rather weak and teeth are used not for the purpose of protection, and for games. At this age it study communication with relatives, acquire the relations in pack. If, playing with tribespeople, bites too strongly, then in reply hears unpleasant squeal and understands that hurt. So he learns to commensurate sting force. People among whom the kid lives are perceived by it as relatives, his pack. And, having already own life experience and a habit to bite at games, it transfers it to the relations with owners.
2. When the puppy wants to play with the owner, he begins to bite it slightly. If the person pushes away him, then he perceives it as continuation of a game. Stings amplify. If you did not push away the kid, began to play him, it will be apprehended as encouragement, stings will proceed and amplify. Such game behavior demands correction from the owner as it can develop into a serious problem.
3. If during the game your pet bit you, do not beat and do not abuse him. React as other puppy would make it - loudly and unpleasantly scream. It you will let know that to you it is painful. Stop a game, depart. If you constantly react to game stings thus, then will soon notice that to bite the puppy became more rare and is not so strong as earlier.
4. Such method is effective during the period up to 4.5 months. Later at dogs second teeth grow, and there is a domination problem. The puppy begins to consider himself by the main thing in family. Your task is to explain who is a leader of pack and what place he in it takes.
5. Do not beat a dog and you do not shout at her. Sometimes such actions are perceived as continuation of a game. Stings at the same time can become even stronger. Take a puppy for withers and press a muzzle to a floor. Look in eyes and strictly say: It "is impossible". Within 15-20 minutes do not react on any its actions.
6. Do not allow a puppy to sleep on a bed. You enter a door and walk upstairs ahead of him. Force to give way to yourself. You feed after all family eats. Let know that he has to earn food. At first give any command and achieve its execution but only then feed.
