At first glance, a dog of the Alabai breed seems terrible and terrible, but in reality these animals are very kind and affectionate. A feature of this breed is its independence and wayward character. These dogs are considered one of the oldest breeds and were bred to protect the herd of cattle from wolves and territories.
Alabai education at home
Alabai puppies should be raised from an early age. Considering the fact that Alabai is distinguished by its uneasy, independent character, from the age of two months it should be shown that you are predominant over him, and you are the master in the house. Show the dog that you are in charge, and let him know that the commands should be carried out without question. When communicating with an animal, special calmness and restraint must be observed. This dog respects poise, and if you raise your voice while training it, then it will be regarded by her as your weakness, which she will later use. At the initial stage of education and training Alabai you can learn such commands:
- "Lie down" ;
- "sit";
- "vote";
- "beside";
- "a place".
You will need a lot of time for the animal to learn the material, but in the future, the dog will instantly obey and follow directions. Training is best done in places where there are no distractions, then from the dog can be achieved special concentration.
Alabai, or the Central Asian Shepherd, as they are also called this breed, has an excellent mindset and a high level of intelligence. Therefore, with proper care and education Alabai can count on excellent protection of your home and the attention of a devoted friend. Unlike other breeds, these dogs guard not only the owner, but also all the territory assigned to him.
