dog training In Detail
To command sit, stand and face the dog then make the command.Difficulty training 'sit' varies by breed, individual and training style. But they don't reason out or get context the way humans do. You want the dog to associate the position with good feelings - his and yours.Dog Training - Down Command - Dogs have a natural inclination to adhere to a hierarchy with an alpha (leader) at the top.Some dogs likely are what would, in humans, be called obstinate. Just dont EVER do it. You have to be geared up to repeat the same order, day in and day out, and occasionally not get the same outcome. So, the dog hasn't evolved to understand why you're hitting them. Now bring out other techniques.Most dogs won't go own the first few times. Fortunately, almost every dog can learn 'sit' quickly. Hold off on food treats until you really need them. Talk to them like they were a human child.As a last resort, for the stubborn or slow learner, give the command and at the same time push gently on the back near the tail as you lift his chin.Make the hand gesture, issue the voice command and move a treat or toy from the dog's chin to the ground while pulling gently on the leash. Try to be away from other voices. When the behavior is complete, praise lavishly. It's easy to use physical punishment as the first route of correcting a dog's behavior. So, here's how NOT to train your dog:- Forget that your dog has a nature unlike yours. But a nearly equal number will underestimate the time, skill and elbow grease it takes to do it as it needs to be done - Especially if they are a new dog owner and have bought a high energy breed when

OK, with all those changes I think I ought to comment. All these breeds are recognised by one or more of: the Fédération Cynologique Internationale, the American Kennel Club, the Australian National Kennel Council, the Canadian Kennel Club, the Kennel Club (UK) or the New Zealand Kennel Club. I've listed the name most commonly used by those organisations. Where only the FCI recognises the breed (and so its not clear if the English name is commonly used), I did a Google to find the most commonly used version on English language pages. Which is why we have "Greek Harehound" but "Deutsche Bracke".
I've also checked the capitalisation of the names. In some cases "terrier", "hound" and so on are part of the breed name and so are capitalised. I used the same checks as above to decide whether it was part of the name or not. If not, I didn't include it in the name listed here ("Azawakh" rather than "Azawakh Hound" and "Maltese" rather than "Maltese terrier" etc.)
I'm not sure what to do about listing alternative names. Should we have something like:
- Patterdale Terrier - see Lakeland Terrier
or:
-
Patterdale Terrier
- see Lakeland Terrier
or:
- Patterdale Terrier (i.e. using a pipe to hide that the link is to "Lakeland Terrier")
I don't like the last option myself, It would make it look as though there are more breeds than there are.
Including variations would make the list very long, but perhaps more useful. It's possibly too long already, and doesn't yet include unrecognised breeds. Maybe it needs splitting already. Any advice or opinions welcome! -- sannse 20:39 Mar 22, 2003 (UTC)
What about making a genealogical tree of dog breeds? I always wanted to know how do they evolved from the wolf. What are the more primitive breeds? Do all terriers share a common ancestor? And... is it possible to make such a tree? Or is a megalomaniac job? Muriel Gottrop
