A dog handler has revealed a way to build an ideal relationship with a dog

The rules in the house and the establishment of communication between the owner and the dog are necessary in order to build an ideal relationship with the dog, says Vladimir Golubev, President of the Russian Cynological Federation.

First of all, he noted the need to establish rules in the house according to which the pet will be able to determine the boundaries of what is allowed, will be able to know exactly what can be done, and for what I can scold him. At the same time, Golubev noted that a dog will begin to trust its owner if he himself follows these rules.

In an interview with Radio 1 on Friday, April 4, the dog handler said that the owner's behavior should be predictable for the dog, then it will be comfortable. It is necessary to maintain a constant equal attitude towards different actions, as well as behave confidently and not show unmotivated aggression.

It is also important to praise the dog, because thanks to this, the pet will be able to understand what he is doing right. Praise will increase the chances that the dog will repeat the behavior for which he receives encouragement. In addition, the behavior of the owner also makes it possible to improve contact with the animal.

In addition, Golubev noted the importance of walking with pets, which are designed, among other things, for dogs to communicate with their relatives, as well as to explore the world around them. Walking also allows the dog to learn commands, play and communicate with the owner, which ultimately also strengthens the bond.
