Basic Braque Francais Obedience Tips
Training must be a positive and rewarding experience for both you and your Braque Francais. If you are not in the right mood for training, do not even think of starting. Always reward the Braque Francais for obeying your commands precisely! A reward is anything that your Braque Francais wants and is happy to work for. Food is a great prize but different rewards could be verbal commendation and playthings. Multiple shorter sessions are usually better than a long one. Training must not contain any degrading comments or consequences. There should be no shouting, no hitting or smacking, no chain jerking on choke chains or collars, and absolutely no electric shocking! Every single training session should be pleasant and reinforcing with prizes for jobs well done.
Training Braque Francaiss with head collars
Dragging the leash is one of the few negative requirements of bringing up a new Braque Francais puppy. Using a head collar for Braque Francais training has become very popular in the last decade. Training with a head collar does have some benefits over the standard training collar. While quite simple to use, it is vital that head collars are fitted properly and your Braque Francais gradually introduced to the collar. Head collars are generally more easy to use than a regular training collar. Head collars are quite effective when controlling Braque Francaiss in tricky situations.
