The Correct Method of Walking Your German Shepherd

German Shepherds should be trained for appropriate behavior when out walking with you. The sooner the training begins the better, this helps to correct or pick up on any bad habits or eliminate them from forming. They need to understand your level of authority and know exactly where they should be at all times when you venture out, by your side. Take advantage of their natural instincts in following you, you inadvertently become their mother figure. To teach them the correct methods you’ll need a collar and leash. You may need to introduce these items by putting them on their neck for a few moments. Do this regularly so they get accustomed to the feel of them. Teach your German Shepherd to walk on you left hand side and walk around. If they move away from you call them back by your side and reward with a treat. Even practices walking with them at your hip to avoid zig-zaging in front of you, as they improve allow them to move ahead of you. This approach also sets up the foundation when teaching them to heel if you so choose to later. Continue to work with them either inside or in the backyard until they are comfortable on the leash. Repetition is the key, when it comes to dog training and positive reinforcement by rewarding correct behavior with a treat. Reprimanding them only confuses them. Socialize them from a young age to avoid any aggression towards other dogs or animals when out walking. Once you’ve established comfort-ability walking around at home you can venture out the yard. Try to avoid distractions like other dogs deposits such as poo, vomit or piddle. Direct them to a dog free area or one with plenty of people and vehicles that of a safe distance away. This gives them a chance to explore, see and hear new things. If they pause, let them, they are probably thinking of something new and its all part of the experience for them. If they happened to be startled allow them to hide behind you and wait till they are ready to come back to the front. Remember to praise your German Shepherd allow the way too. With most German Shepherds, it takes time, patience and repetition in order to achieve a task such as walking appropriately when venturing out. Early socialization will also balance their temperament on these outings. With a bit of dog training you’ll find going out with you pet a pleasurable and relaxing experience you’ll both enjoy.
