Hello!
I would be very interested to seehow you schedule your dog's training. I have come across lots of different views on that matter and I don't really know what method is the best.
I am teaching him lots of different commands at the same time - but he has already learnt most of them and only few need to be strengthen. But what I don't really know is how to schedule commands in his daily routine. So now I'm trying either: 1. to teach all of them 5-6 times during one session 3 times per day (so let's say 6-7 commands x 5 repeats x 3 times a day) or 2. Sometimes I focus on less commands per session but dedicate more time to them, for example 2 commands in the morning 10-15 each, then 2 next in the afternoon and 2 in the evening.
I don't know if any of these are correct - On one hand I wonder if he can remember the commands if I teach all of them during one session because It seems to be a lot for him and if this really can be learnt well by him but on the other hand teaching only 2-3 per session and then trying to do another set in the other session may not really strengthen the previous ones and I don't know if he still can remember what we were doing in the morning if we have another set of commands in the evening.
What do you think?
By the way - I have recently met a lot of french bulldog owners. All of them kept asking about our training and the surprising thing I heard was that their dogs weren't really keen on training and were really stubborn. I know frenchies can be obstinate but apart from certain situations I think my dog is very willing to learn, easy to train and he would really do a lot of for some good snacks. What is your experience?
Best wishes!
