遛狗指南：6 個建立領導地位的秘訣
無論您是一次遛一隻狗，還是同時遛 10 隻狗，只要您已確立自己作為狗群領袖的地位，就能讓牠們乖乖聽話。以下提供六個遛狗小技巧，幫助您建立自己的領導地位。

1. 使用短牽繩
使用短牽繩能讓您更容易掌控狗狗，這對確立自己作為狗群領袖至關重要。將牽繩扣在狗狗頸部上方，這樣您就能更輕鬆地引導牠。

2. 走在前面
如果狗狗在散步時感覺自己掌握了主導權，牠就會認為自己是狗群領袖。但當您走在牠前面時，狗狗就會把您視為狗群領袖。
從離開家門的那一刻就要開始。請確保您先走出門，狗狗可以走在您身後或身旁。

3. 早上至少散步 30 分鐘
不要在狗狗排泄後立刻結束散步。每次散步至少預留 30 分鐘，若可行，最長可達 60 分鐘。不同犬種的需求各不相同，請諮詢獸醫，並觀察狗狗的行為，以確保牠的需求都得到滿足。
 

4. 按照您的規則獎勵狗狗
狗狗排泄後，可以讓牠四處聞聞、自由探索。 不過，「獎勵」時間的開始與結束都應由您來決定。如果牠抗拒您輕拉牽繩，就稍微加大力道，直到牠遵從您的「指令」開始行走。
千萬不要猛拉狗狗。輕輕拉動牽繩，應足以讓牠跟隨您的引導。

5. 保持領先
即使散步結束後，也要保持領導地位。在您解開牠的牽繩和／或脫鞋時，讓狗狗先等待。

6. 散步後再獎勵牠
散步後再給狗狗正餐或零食，牠會明白自己必須為食物「努力」。
以上只是幫助您踏上成為狗狗明確狗群領袖之路的一些入門建議。確立這個領導角色有許多重要原因，而成功的唯一方法，就是在做法上保持一致並嚴守原則。

    I used smiliar things when walking my cat and they worked very well.

    He has passed on and I miss our walks.

    I've heard the rule several times that the dog should go after you through a door. This is not good practices, especially when returning to an empty quarters. The dog should be the first to have an opportunity to discover intruders.

    Hello.
    I would like to thank you for the promptness of my previous orders. They have been delivered reasonably quickly and it was great to get a reminder when my product (flea control) was due to be purchased again. This reminder came early enough for me to be able to organise my finances which was also fantastic and the price had remained low :)
    Once again thank you. I think you run a great business and I would definitely order from you again.
    Merry Christmas to all.

    I have read these guidelines over and over again, specifically about making your dog walk behind you or beside you. This simply doesn't work for me and my dog. He is well behaved, leash trained, not at all neurotic, mature, loving...but he prefers walking in front of me. He never pulls hard or "walks me"...it almost seems like I'd have to "break his spirit" to force him to walk behind me. In spite of reading this instruction many times I still don't totally get it, and I do believe quite strongly that my dog knows that I am the alpha, the leader, and he does obey. He will walk behind me or beside me if I insist, but it just doesn't seem natural to us. My dog is a 7+ year old Shiba Inu. Comments are welcome.

    Good point Ernie.
    My dog instinctively waits for me to go first, but, there are times when she has crossed my path to block me, in these cases, she's been allowed to go first and it's paid off. I'm constantly heeding my dogs body language a that's their way of communicating.
    We watch each others back.

    I totally disagree with these guildlines. I prefer my dog to walk in front of me as I can see if they pick up something and eat it that they shouldnt. Also. I want them to confront an intruder and protect me, so therefore I prefer they are in front of me. I do not allow them to walk me or pull if they do I use a choke to gently tug them back and firmer yank if they ignore my commands.
    I would much rather my dog enter my house first and catch any instruder in the act rather then interupt an intruder myself and possibly get hurt. My dog is my companion but also my protector. I either want her by my side or infront. never behind me. She knows who the Alpha Dog is. Animals are smart. she knew who was boss the first day I brought her home. She sees who feed her, she sees me drive a car. she sees all of these things she Cant do therefore I Must be the Alpha or Leader. I pick up and grasp things she cant do and I take care of her she Knows who is the Alpha by instinct and when she trys to inforce her own will I quickly let her know I am the Leader.
