General Beagle-Harrier Obedience Tips

Training should be a positive and rewarding situation for both you and the Beagle-Harrier. If you’re not in the right mood for training, do not even think of beginning. Always treat your Beagle-Harrier for following your commands precisely! A prize is anything that your Beagle-Harrier desires and is willing to work for. Edible treats are a great prize but different prizes could be verbalized praise and toys. Multiple shorter training sessions are typically more effective than a long one. Training must not involve any degrading comments or punishment. There should be no yelling, no smacking or hitting, no leash jerking on choke leashes or collars, and absolutely no electric shocking! Every training opportunity must be pleasant and reinforcing with rewards for jobs well done.

Utilizing a head collar for Beagle-Harrier training has become very popular during the last decade. Training with a head collar does have some unique advantages over the regular training collar.
