Standard Lithuanian Hound Obedience Tips
Training should be a pleasant and rewarding situation for both you and your Lithuanian Hound. If you are not in the right mindset for training, do not even think of starting. Always treat the Lithuanian Hound for heeding your orders to the letter! A treat is anything that your Lithuanian Hound desires and is willing to earn. Food is a great prize but different rewards could be oral admiration and playthings. Multiple shorter sessions are much better than a single long one. Training must not contain any degrading comments or punishment. There should be no yelling, no hitting or smacking, no chain yanking on training chains or collars, and absolutely no electricity! Each training opportunity is to be enjoyed and reinforcing with treats for jobs well done.
