The Doberman is a breed that is named after a famous German breeder. He made it his goal to breed guard dogs, but over time, representatives of this breed began to be used only for official purposes. These are dogs, perfectly amenable to education and training, with reduced pain sensitivity and good instinct.
Instructions
Step 1
The basic rules and methods of training a Doberman puppy are standard, as for all dogs of service breeds. From the first days of the puppy's appearance in the house, determine a place for him to rest and a place to feed. By accustoming him to them, in a couple of days you will teach him to understand and execute the commands "Place" and "To me" when you bring him to a place to rest or call for feeding.
Step 2
The Doberman puppy has a passion for learning and following your commands. Sometimes it is enough for him that you just praise or caress him after the correct execution of the command, he will be ready to carry them out even without any tidbits. Such activities bring real pleasure to the Doberman.
Step 3
Read up on how to handle dominant dog breeds like the Doberman. To continue to enjoy the authority of the grown dog, and so that he unquestioningly fulfills your commands, you need to remain a "leader" for him. Feed him after you have eaten yourself, go out the door earlier than he does, do not allow him to lie on your bed, be consistent and always get your commands done. This is the only way you can achieve submission and obedience from the Doberman.
Step 4
Never do a training session if you are irritated or tired of something. The dog will immediately feel this, and any activity will be useless. Try to practice some new command for a short time so that the dog does not get tired. Usually, 10-15 minutes is enough, consolidate the skill on the next walk. Get what you want from him. Dobermans are very quick-witted and, at times, can imitate misunderstanding, checking their master for consistency and firmness. Only the owner should train the dog in commands.
Step 5
A lively and playful breed, the Doberman pinscher can hardly tolerate being kept in confined spaces. Suffering from this, he can begin to spoil furniture and gnaw on shoes. You can wean him off by punishment - raising his voice, sending him "to the place" or, in extreme cases, "lightly hitting the croup with a folded newspaper. But keep in mind that the dog should be punished immediately after it has committed a "crime". And do not abuse punishments, the Doberman is very sensitive to communication, use intonation more often and try to maintain emotional contact with him.
