Standard Sloughi Obedience Tips
Training should be a positive and enjoyable situation for both you and your Sloughi. If you’re not in the best mindset for training, don’t even begin. Always reward the Sloughi for heeding your orders precisely! A reward is anything that your Sloughi desires and is willing to earn. Food is a great prize but different treats could be verbalized admiration and toys. Many brief sessions are demonstrated to be better than a single long one. Training must not involve any negative components or consequences. There should be no shouting, no smacking or hitting, no leash jerking on training chains or collars, and absolutely no electricity! Every training opportunity is to be pleasant and confidence-building with rewards for jobs well done.
