了解你的犬種特性
在過去，人們期望狗狗能與主人一起工作。牧羊犬負責聚集牲畜。㹴犬擅長追逐和挖掘，用來保護財產免受人類或動物入侵者的侵擾。包括黃金獵犬和拉布拉多犬在內的運動犬，會在陸地和水中協助獵回鳥類與魚類。現代生活中很少需要這些犬類工作，但你的狗狗依然保有這些天性。先研究你的犬種特性，再安排合適的活動。例如，你會發現牧羊犬很擅長狗狗運動，㹴犬喜歡敏捷訓練和你丟我撿遊戲，而運動犬則天生愛游泳。
每天幾次短暫散步並不夠
如果你的狗狗會啃咬桌腳或咬爛拖鞋，顯然牠需要另一個發洩精力的方式。請每天帶牠長時間散步。對某些犬種來說，30 分鐘已足夠；但精力旺盛的狗狗可從至少 1 小時或更久的高強度運動中受益。你也是！如果不確定你的狗狗是否適合健行或慢跑，請諮詢獸醫。
回應狗狗的吠叫
你會要正在吠叫的狗狗安靜嗎？別這麼做。吠叫是狗狗溝通的方式之一，因此請花點時間了解牠想表達什麼。如果狗狗走近你、直視你的眼睛並吠叫，也許牠需要上廁所。有些狗狗會在肚子餓時吠叫，或是想讓全家人在同一個房間相聚時吠叫。另一些狗狗會為了提醒你有陌生人靠近，或是在你還聽不見之前就警告雷雨即將來臨而吠叫。狗狗一吠叫，就立刻回應牠，例如說："你需要出去嗎？"或"謝謝你告訴我送貨員來了。"你即時的回應會讓狗狗知道你已聽見並理解牠，未來也可能減少牠的吠叫。
許多犬種是群居動物，與其他狗狗互動時會更快樂。只要狗狗已完成必要疫苗接種，造訪狗狗公園是不錯的第一步。到了那裡，務必留意牠的狀況。如果牠搖著尾巴、享受追逐與被追逐，也會一起玩鬧摔角，那就很好。如果牠看起來害怕群體，或表現得過度具有攻擊性，就試試其他社交方式。你的狗狗可能更喜歡一次只與一隻狗相處。可以安排牠和朋友的狗狗一起玩，或邀請鄰居和他們的狗狗在晚餐後與你一起到附近散步。
帶著狗狗一起出門
許多人外出辦事或去看孩子比賽時，會把寵物留在家裡。但牠獨處的時間越長，就可能越無聊、破壞力也越強。只要天氣不會太熱或太冷，而且場所允許寵物進入，就帶著狗狗一起去吧。牠會很享受你的陪伴，而接觸各種不同情境最終也會讓牠感到疲累。此外，回家時你也不會發現牠把狗床拆得亂七八糟！
讓狗狗自由奔跑
你們在戶外散步時總是繫著牽繩嗎？不妨開始嘗試不繫牽繩探索世界。專業訓犬師建議採取循序漸進的方式，尤其是對於過去很少不繫牽繩的狗狗。先從不易受人群、動物和車流干擾的地方開始，例如你的庭院或當地公園較僻靜的區域。在口袋裡放些肉塊，邀請狗狗與你同行，並不時以零食獎勵牠。這類外出訓練可能會持續數週，每次僅進行 15 分鐘。關鍵在於讓狗狗能持續穩定地回應你的指令。接著再逐步將散步地點移至干擾更多的區域，例如社區人行道或熱門步道。準備好額外的零食和牽繩，以防狗狗發現某樣太誘人的東西，忍不住熱情上前打招呼。隨著時間推移，反覆進行不繫牽繩的探索活動，將大幅增進你與狗狗之間的默契，並讓牠更願意聽從你的引導。
面對狗狗調皮搗蛋的行為，不需要花錢請訓犬師。相反地，請依照牠的犬種與性格，帶牠體驗新奇有趣的事物。只要你願意讓狗狗嘗試不同的體能活動，並增加牠的社交機會，就能培養出一隻更乖巧的寵物

My dog is a shepherd mix and a people pleaser. He's perfect except if he's bored too long. For example if we don't play with him off and on throughout the day or if we don't go for a walk at least 3 times a week. He will dig holes in the yard. We bought him a femur bone at the local feed store and that really helped too. He has an inside bone and an outside bone.
Dogs need 2 walks a day, if they aren't getting that it's no surprise they are bored.
My dog loves to escape over the fence when we are not here. We have a one acre block where she can sniff and roam, she has lots of attention and love, warm beds and a companion to spend time with. We take her for a walk most days where she can explore but she still escapes when the mood takes her and despite altering the fence, she manages to get over it although we've never caught her.
We are at a loss to know how to control her urges.
my dog used to obey my husband and was well mannered . after kicking my ex husband out the dogs mannerisms changed completely, can no longer walk him as soon as we get out the gate starts bucking like a bronco and has like a panic attack.
wont do commands unless its food or something he really wants , starting to snap at our other animals as well, getting quite frightening. he is a 4 year old Blue Heeler.
I acquired a small unwanted dog when she was 3 years old. Over the past 2 years I have learnt to communicate fairly well with her and she has become a loving pet. I would love to let her walk without the lead but she heads for home instantly and she doesn't seem to have any road sense. We went to a large park one day and she took off for home and tried to cross a busy road. No amount of calling would persuade her to stop. I would be devastated if I lost her.
