• Alabai is very stubborn in nature, so the owner of the dog must surpass the pet in this capacity. The dog must learn that all that a person says must be unconditionally fulfilled, and it doesn’t matter if the dog wants to do this or not.
• It doesn’t matter if the puppy needs to learn the Sit! Command, or it is necessary to examine his paw for a wound, the dog must obey unconditionally. Should not pay attention to it resistance, if necessary – use force. No matter how I try the pet breaks out, the owner must calmly continue started.

Peculiarities of the education of alaba boys and girls

Having fought for a while and met with resistance, a small male (boy) Alabai will still give up. Yes, he will still be some time look for opportunities to rectify the situation, try not to comply or snap. But still, over time, such thoughts will leave him. head if he understands the futility of his ventures. Naturally, the owner must not show slack.

As for bitches (girls), then everything is not so simple. Being by nature more cunning, Alabaiks achieve their goal, but to others by way. Using all their intellect, I must say, they have it and highly developed, they come up with a ton of ingenious ways to Avoid completing assignments. For example, often females upon hearing team, immediately pretend to be sick and weak animals. It turns out they have it so well that often experienced dog breeders “bought.”

The owner panics that he brought the animal to such a state of his drill and, of course, lets your darling rest. Pleased and happy, the dog, in front of his eyes, is recovering and has fun running to play with the other four-legged brethren.

If at least once she has this number passes, then everything, she will constantly manipulate the owner, coming up with ever newer combinations. It can be sudden weakness, panic fear in front of an obstacle, flattery, ingratiating glances and stuff, stuff. Such machinations of a beloved pet must be stopped immediately and be more attentive to the behavioral characteristics of the bitch.

Adult Education Alabai

Thrown by the previous owners, transferred from hand to hand, remaining from deceased relatives – but you never know the reasons for that so that Alabai gets into the family, already being an adult, independent dog. What you need to know about how to gain Asian confidence Shepherd dogs and become for her a full leader?

The first step is to clarify that this breed is not suitable for leash, as it disgusts her natural flock lifestyle. Such a dog needs to be kept in an aviary in which there should be a booth. But this does not mean that the animal is not needed. let out a walk around the territory. Hard limits can apply only when visiting strangers at home, exclusively in as a precaution. If the house is very welcoming, visit strangers come constantly, then you should not start alabai-guard, as he will greatly complicate life.

In addition, the fence must be very reliable, strong and tall, able to withstand the 70-80 kilogram giant, and to he could not jump over it. Especially trying to urgently leave the territory of males, smelling a flowing bitch, and a flimsy fence will not be able to stop.

The second important point – you will definitely need make contact with a new pet. To do this, it is recommended to go to territory yourself and let the dog go there. It’s better not to pay attention to the shepherd, she must take the initiative herself. It will be easier for the dog if the owner sits, but is on one level with her. Any step towards a new owner with a view getting to know should be encouraged by an approving glance.

It is worth noting that girls are more contact and get used to faster to a new environment and people. It’s more difficult for males in this case to leave more time for the adaptation period.

No need to put pressure on the dog, it can only aggravate stressful state. The pet may not eat at first, refuse put on a collar, do not let yourself touch. All this is quite explainable, and you should give the animal time to get comfortable.

In the process of getting used to it is impossible to do the following things:

• try to feed the dog by any means, it will only cause aggression;
• put on a strict collar and pull the animal against it will;
• constantly keep the dog in the aviary without releasing on territory.

As soon as the Alabai is accustomed, it will calmly respond to putting on a collar, will allow itself to be stroked, you can display it walk. At this moment, it is important for him to show his superiority by leading him to unfamiliar places.

You should calculate your strength, as the Central Asian Shepherd Dog negatively treats other animals and, having seen another dog, will try to attack her. Not everyone can at this moment hold on.

Do not believe the tales of the Alabaev eating children. Shepherds dogs, which is the Central Asian, have long been considered pets, suitable for home maintenance. They are distrustful of strangers, but to their attitude is quite friendly, and with proper education Alabai get along well with children. But there is one caveat. For asians there is only one boss – the leader, the rest of the family will they are considered the same as the owner.

If the family is not all right, scandals are not uncommon, then the dog this will necessarily be taken into account in their attitude to household members.
