Basic Chinook Obedience Tips
Training has to be a positive and rewarding experience for both you and the Chinook. If you are not in the best mindset for training, don’t even begin. Always commend the Chinook for heeding your orders expeditiously! A prize is anything that your Chinook wants and is happy to work for. Snacks are an obvious reward but other prizes could be verbal admiration and toys. Multiple brief training sessions are demonstrated to be more effective than 1 long one. Training mustn’t contain any negative components or consequences. There should be no shouting, no hitting or smacking, no chain jerking on training chains or collars, and absolutely no electricity! Every training session is to be enjoyable and confidence-building with treats for jobs well done.
Training Chinooks with head collars
Pulling on the leash is one of the few displeasing experiences of bringing up a new Chinook puppy. Utilizing a head collar for Chinook training has become very popular throughout the last decade. Training with a head collar does have some unique advantages over the usual training collar. Although very easy to use, it is vital that head collars are fit properly and your Chinook properly introduced to the collar. Head collars are pretty much more simple to use than a regular training collar. Head collars are very powerful when controlling Chinooks in tricky situations.
