Before training a Labrador, first make sure it remembers its name, then use food to entice it to participate in training. For example, when training a Labrador to sit, first establish the command. When the Labrador sits on its own upon hearing the command, reward it with a treat to reinforce its memory. Training should be gradual and patient.
Methods of training Labradors
Training a dog requires a lot of patience. First, before training your puppy, make sure it remembers its name. For example, call its name every time you feed it, and only give it food after you see it react.
For example, when training a Labrador to sit, you can first give a command, such as "sit," then press down on the Labrador's bottom to make it sit, and then give it food. Repeat the command until it sits on its own.
It's also important to manage training time. Dogs tend to get distracted if the training sessions are too long; around 15 minutes is ideal. When a dog performs a correct action, reward it with food or a pat on the head. If it does something wrong, you can use a stern tone to reprimand it, letting it know it made a mistake. Be careful not to punish it too much.
