Some dog owners think that their pets should be extremely obedient, while others see consolation in every prank.

Only experts suggest looking at the problem at its root, that is, first the reason for its occurrence, and then ways to solve it.

Why a dog does not obey its owner and what to do about it, writes "Dobro.Zhurnal" with reference to an expert.

Disobedience is expressed in different ways. The dog can bark loudly, jump on passers-by, misbehave at home, on a walk, and so on.

The main thing in such a situation is not to swear, but to understand the reason for the behavior.

What is the reason?

It may be stress due to lack of understanding with the owner or lack of training, uncorrected dog behavior or health problems.

What to do

If the dog damages furniture, you will have to train it to wear a muzzle.

This habit will come in handy on the street – the dog will not pick up food from the ground or bully passers-by.

It is also worth considering buying a toy for your dog that would be interesting to your pet - this will come in handy in case the dog spends a lot of time alone.

Inexperienced dog owners should seek help from a specialist who will correct the animal’s behavior over the course of several sessions.
