Basic essentials for training German Shepherds to stand

Training password: "Stand".

Training gestures: The trainer stretches his right arm straight forward from bottom to top, with the palm facing upward.

Action requirements: The dog quickly makes the "standing" action according to the command, and maintains the persistence of "standing". The "standing" posture should be natural and focused.

Training the German Shepherd to stand method

Training the German Shepherd's "stand" command conditioning reflex trainer brings the dog to a quiet, flat place to sit down . The trainer holds the dog's neck with his right hand and stretches his left hand toward the abdomen. Give the "stand" command and raise the dog to stand up. When the dog stands, it should be rewarded in time. So train repeatedly until the dog can do an action. After training, you can combine it with gestures to gradually extend the command distance.

The method to cultivate the dog's ability to delay standing is: the trainer makes the dog sit down and is one step away from it, and uses commands and gestures to command the dog to stand. If it does not stand, the trainer can use a threatening tone to issue commands, accompanied by mechanical Stimulate until it can stand more than 20 meters away from the trainer and delay for about 5 minutes, this subject will be considered as meeting the requirements.

Notes

Standing subjects should be trained separately and should not be associated with "sitting" and "lying" to avoid generalization.

In the early stages of training, the trainer cannot ask the dog to come forward and ruin the action, but can return to the dog to reward it.

When a dog has trouble walking forward after standing up, the trainer should immediately pull it back to its original position and appropriately lower the requirements, but cannot accommodate it to avoid a bad relationship.
