Har lärt mig mycket om Rhodesian Ridgeback och insett hur viktigt det är att verkligen förstå sin ras….Här är en bra förklaring på hur en RR "fungerar":How does one train the RR??
You use positive reinforcement (clicker training, clicker training, clicker training), NOT negative reinforcement.
A border collie can and will take a lot of heavy-handedness, correction and mindless repetition from an owner. A Ridgeback temperament is the antithesis of a herding or working dog. They are independent thinkers, and cannot be forced to do anything simply because you want them to. The more you force, the more they resist. They will never approach the level of biddability you want and expect from the BC, nor should they. That doesn't mean they won't or can't be well mannered; it just means that they think for themselves, and you must outthink them.
You must outthink them – herlig beskrivelse!!!
