When you work with the shih tzu, it is important to keep training sessions short at first. This is particularly important when working with a young shih tzu puppy, since puppies shih tzu tend to have much shorter attention span than dogs older shih tzu. Keeping training sessions short and fun is essential appropriate training.

Beginning training sessions should focus on the most basic commands. The heel command is one the most fundamental, and one of the easiest to teach. Start by putting the dog or puppy shih tzu shih tzu in a properly fitted collar training. Be sure to follow assembly instructions and color calibration to ensure it works as expected.

Start walking and allow your shih tzu to walk beside you. If the shih tzu begins to pull, gently pull on the leash. This will tighten the neck of training and correct the dog. If the pressure Freshwater is ineffective, it may be necessary to increase the pressure slowly. Always be careful not to over-correct the Shih Tzu.

If the opposite problem occurs and the shih tzu is late, the owner should gently encourage it until he walked beside the owner.

Most shih tzu figure the concept of slope fairly quickly, and they quickly figure had to walk beside their owners, or delays, or get ahead. Once the shih tzu has mastered heeling at a moderate pace, the owner should slow his pace and allow the shih tzu to settle with him. The owner should also speed up the pace and allow the shih tzu to accelerate so. Finally, walking along and changing pace often will reinforce the lesson that the Shih Tzu should always walk on the ankle of the manager.

From lodging, the next step should be to halt on command. This command works well as a stop as an adjunct to heel. As you walk, stop and you look shih tzu. Many shih tzu immediately realize what is expected to stop when their master does. Others need a reminder in May the leash and collar training.

After the halt on command has been mastered, the handler should encourage the shih tzu to sit on command also. Once the shih tzu has stopped, the handler gently pushes on the rump of tzu che to encourage the sit. Usually, after the march, stop, sit procedure has been done several times, the shih tzu will begin to sit on his own whenever he stops. Of course, it is important to give great praise, and perhaps even a treat each time the shih tzu is what is expected.
