A dog trained in a targeted manner can understand what the commands of the owner means. The most common is the military police dog training. The smart military dog can understand the meaning that the trainer wants to express and make accurate and correct actions. If there are some instructions that have not been trained, then the clever military dogs will not understand. They may turn their heads sideways and think: Do you not follow the routine today?
There are many dogs in my family, two German Shepherd Dogs, four Chinese Rural Dogs. I used to do related training. I want them to understand what I mean. In addition, I also want to know which is smarter,the german shepherd or the chinese rural dog?
I trained the six dogs in the house separately. The two German shepherds were trained in about three months and performed very well in training. Although sometimes they are distracted and do some small moves, they are very focused after being guided by snacks.Two hours trainings each morning and afternoon, and let them rest and play with them. They took a week to sit and stand up, which is very skilled.
The elder Chinese Rural Dog was two and a half years old at that time. She was not interested in sitting on the sidelines, just perfuse me. But I tried another method. When I pointed at the target, I let it bite, she is very skilled in just one day. I thought this was just a special case. But,the results of the rest three Chinese garden dogs trainings was still the same. They all not interested in sit and stand up.However, they can understood other commands such as: getting on the bus, taking slippers, and returning to the nest. These non-action commands can be learned quickly.
Therefore, I think that German shepherds is very easy to train, IQ is indeed higher, and has good training enthusiasm and memory. Chinese Rural Dog learn faster about non-action training, and can also make rapid conditioning, but they don’t have much enthusiasm for action training. Is this the same for your dog? Can your dog really understand you ?
