Rescued Yorkie's Transformation: A Novopolotsk Training Success Story
Novopolotsk Woman's heartwarming story of training a rescued Yorkshire Terrier. A resident of Novopolotsk, Belarus, recently shared her successful experience training a rescued Yorkshire Terrier to walk calmly on a leash. The dog, an adult male, initially exhibited challenging behavior, pulling and running ahead during walks. "He absolutely didn't know how to walk with a person," the owner explained. To address this, she employed a simple yet effective method: positive reinforcement using treats. Over two weeks, she gradually reduced the amount of treats given, rewarding the dog only when it walked calmly beside her. The result is a noticeable improvement in the dog's behavior, showcasing the power of patient training. The story highlights the rewarding experience of rescuing a pet and the dedication required for successful training, offering hope and inspiration to other dog owners.
