Standard German Pinscher Obedience Tips

Training should be a positive and enjoyable experience for both you and your German Pinscher. If you are not in the right mindset for training, don’t even think of beginning. Always commend the German Pinscher for heeding your commands promptly! A prize is anything that your German Pinscher desires and is willing to work for. Snacks are a great reward but different rewards could be verbalized commendation and toys. Multiple shorter training sessions are typically more effective than one long one. Training should not contain any degrading components or punishment. There should be no shouting, no smacking or hitting, no chain jerking on training chains or collars, and absolutely no electric fences! Each training session must be pleasant and confidence-building with rewards for jobs well done.
