5. Yelling At Your Dog
Dogs have a heightened sensitivity to loud noises and yelling, which can evoke fear and anxiety in them. Shouting or scolding your dog is not an effective form of communication and can result in negative consequences. Instead, positive reinforcement and reward-based training methods should be employed to encourage desired behaviors.
By focusing on rewarding good behavior with treats, praise, or affection, we create a positive and encouraging environment for our dogs to learn and thrive. Positive reinforcement helps build a strong bond of trust and understanding between us and our furry companions, leading to better behavior and a harmonious relationship.
