Standard Elo Obedience Tips
Training has to be a positive and enjoyable situation for both you and your Elo. If you are not in the right mindset for training, do not even start. Always reward the Elo for obeying your commands promptly! A treat is anything that your Elo wants and is willing to work for. Snacks are a great prize but different rewards could be oral admiration and toys. Several shorter training sessions are demonstrated to be more effective than a long one. Training must not contain any negative components or punishment. There should be no shouting, no hitting or smacking, no chain yanking on choke leashes or collars, and absolutely no electric shocking! Every training opportunity should be pleasant and positive with rewards for jobs well done.
Training Elos with head collars
Pulling on the lead is one of the few unpleasant tasks of raising a new Elo puppy. Utilizing a head collar for Elo training has become standard during the last decade. Training with a head collar does have some unique advantages over the usual training collar. Even though it is quite simple to utilize, it’s crucial that head collars are fit correctly and your Elo properly introduced to the collar. Head collars are typically more easy to use than a traditional training collar. Head collars are very effective when controlling Elos in difficult situations.
