“Rewarding pieces “are intentionally mentioned the last thing,
because they turn to be useless when you have to deal with not
very gluttonous dog. On the contrary, cooperative staying with
close person, playing with him is always more attractive
encouragement for dog Doberman.
We should remember this peculiarity, always bear it in mind and
practise in order to succeed in education and training of our pet.
Reasonable alternation of pleasant moments with unpleasant ones is
necessary for pursuing an educational goal.
Amicable nature of Doberman is such a wonderful benefit
that, besides all other measures, every owner of this dog is just
obliged to keep up it in the first instance and of course not to
spoil. Before buying Doberman you should arrange a place
for its sleeping.
In new housing conditions Doberman puppy must immediately have a
place specially designed for it. In order to allay wrench of
separating with its mom it is recommended to take along a thing
redolent of a Kennel; it may be either a toy or a piece of a
blanket which smells of native nest.
It will help the puppy to get accustomed to new surroundings
sooner. Naturally, absence of brothers and sisters as well as
familiar medium may cause heart-break in the dog. During this
period it needs to be with Doberman puppy as often as possible
and not leave it alone as far as possible.
Generally necessary educative process may not last only for 5
minutes a day–you should spend much more time with dog Doberman.
One should lead the puppy out and drive it unleashed for short or
long walk. At that the triple effect is achieved:
necessary regimen is provided;
meetings with unfamiliar people, animals, transport
distract and excite the dog and gradually it becomes assured;
only we can protect Doberman dog from all
dangers during walk and this intensifies its devotion, trust.
If such first walks are successful one should start habituating
to leash step by step. It does not mean that you should bear lead
the baby applying a brute force; you had better lure it stepwise
at that speak highly of the dog, talk a lot and lend it support.
During this period Doberman puppy should get as much
various and entertaining impressions and not to gain unpleasant
experience. If it turns out well the dog will get bang out
of every walk and its relaxedness, its self-confidence
will be preserved and even increase. At first these walks are
short and correspond to physical capabilities of Doberman
puppy.
Following a bicycle is a good occupation but only when the dog is
9 months old not earlier. Bathing is very useful for strong
athletic body development. But you should beware of negative
experience.
You should not throw the dog into water if it does not want; the
goal objective can be met much easier if an owner himself takes a
departure offshore and then calls his dog.
During common pastime any wanted behavioral peculiarities are to
be always rewarded and confirmed. It is always recommended to
praise largely for every properly made instruction and not to
hurry to repeat a requirement.
