Chihuahua Training

You can try some simple things the book recommends yourself to see how they work, like making it look like you have eaten some food first and then giving your dog his/her food to eat. Then, if after five minutes or so the dog has not eaten the food, take it away. This lets the dog know that you are in control of the food supply...a classic top dog role! And the next time you feed your precious pet they wil be positive to gobble up whatever leftovers you have provided for them. With a little breed like the Chihuahua it is also important not to overfeed them, but that is a subject for a Chihuahua Health news story.

There is book that I highly recommend (I wish I had written it!) that goes well beyond what most dog trainers speak about and gets to the heart of how your dog feels about and experiences life. In the book The Dog Listener by Jan Fennell, you'll read that canines naturally feel like they still belong to a pack and they need to interract with you as part of the pack.

Another thing to try is to ignore (this can be hard with Chihuahuas since they are so cute!) your dog for the first five minutes after you come home. The top dog never makes a fuss over the pack when returning home. But it is OK to worry about and make a fuss over your Chi when it returns home (like after going outside to "do it is duty").

It is brilliant to see the difference in Yoda's behavior when they follow a few simple rules of how to live life in a [Chihuahua] dog pack. Chihuahua training becomes simple!
If you are like me (I am not known to be a patient shopper...I need it now!) you'll be wanting to go out and pick up the book at your local bookstore today or check out your local library to see in the event that they have a duplicate. I don't know the author and the only reason this was written is they both feel it can do a lot nice for so plenty of people and their pets.  in the event you may be thinking your dog is out of control and may must be put down.
