German Train
How do I train my puppy german shepherd to follow me?
I wanna know how i can train my german shepherd pup to follow me so when its older i can take it to the beach without it running away.
If I spend everyday all day with it looking after it Loving it all that stuff will it just follow anyway or does it need training?
Being nice is an absolutely essential first step. Your pup should regard you as the centre of its universe. It should know that you won't call it except for something nice - praise, pats or rubs, tidbits, games such as fetch or tug-o-war, meals, to put it on-lead for an interesting walk where it can do lots of exploring at the end of the leash.
But being nice isn't enough.
Merely following you soon gets boring.
No matter how nice is the person you like most at present, I'll bet you don't spend all your free time adoringly following that person. And I'll bet that sometimes you do things that that person DOESN'T want you doing - especially when you are in an exciting place.
I require my buyers to attend training classes and send me their first graduation certificate.
The majority of your pup's training should be done at home, a couple of minutes at a time, but being in a class is essential. It's the only way you are going to be observed by experienced trainers and given advice that helps you improve whatever needs improving, such as your use of "the voices" and of your posture, your timing, your choices of rewards & reprimands. And it is the safest situation in which to find out whether your pet still obeys even when there are distractions. Until it does, no way should it be off-lead in any public place.
And it should NEVER be off-lead anywhere that has vehicles moving through.
[andreav4...]'s brain needs assistance, starting with learning what our breed is called, and why. Dogs have instincts, and different breeds have been selected for particular instincts to reliably be present (until show-is-all breeders and breeders-from-pets breed those instincts out...), but training is necessary if the way they use those instincts is to properly match our requirements.
