What are the steps to train the Universal Terrier to get down?

The Universal Terrier has many advantages, such as loyalty, liveliness and agility, and at one time in history it appeared as a messenger dog and became an important role in the battlefield. However, this dog has a stubborn side in it, and if it cannot be trained strictly, it may get into a lot of trouble, so it needs to be trained from its puppyhood so that the dog has good obedience. I share some of the key points of training the Terrier by taking the dog down as an example. 1. Let the Terrier sit first, then the owner squats sideways in front of the dog, kneeling on one knee and stretching the other forward, so that the kneeling leg forms a knee nest. 2. 3、Shout the command “lie down” or “lie down”, the Terrier will be induced by the food to drill through the bowed leg and try to get the food, basically forming a down action. 4、At this time, you can move the food a little further away, the Terrier will continue to extend its body until the whole body is all down, then the food can be rewarded to the dog. During this process, the owner can use the other hand to pet the dog and slowly press its body down. 5. Repeat the training until the owner does not need to make the action of kneeling on one knee and does not need a snack to induce the Terrier to get down, but only needs to call out the command “lie” or “down”. “The dog will naturally get down when the owner does not need to make a single knee action and does not need a snack to induce the Terrier to get down. In the process of training the Terrier to learn to get down, some dogs will appear to resist or not be induced by food, owners must take coercive measures, loudly scold him, so that he realizes the importance of this training. At the same time, the owner must remain patient enough, because training a dog is not a quick thing, but comes from repeated training over time.
