There are some dogs, who think it is there job to chase everything that moves. They chase children, cars and any other moving vehicle. These dogs run the risk of being in an accident or causing one. In many times they are injured or may even in the worse case scenario; die in one of their chasing activities. Each dog that chases cars also proves to be an annoying aggravation to people who are driving and kids on bicycles. In the case of cars, it can also jeopardize the lives of many people.
The reason that the dog chases cars or the particular danger that could stem from it is just half of the problem. When the dog is hurt, you and your children could possibly lose your best friend and loved family pet. However, you can help your dog curb the need to chase after cars and other vehicles with proper training, and keep your dog safe.
When you start to train your dog, one of the most important things you need to remember is that you'll have to be patient. Don't expect results overnight. Refrain from yelling at your dog as well as this could do 1 of 2 dangerous things, firstly it could make the dog run away even faster, or it could make your dog stop suddenly in the middle of the street - neither is a desirable outcome. What you should do to start with is buy a leash. Start using the leash to teach your dog to walk calmly.
The next step in training is to make your dog heel on command. When your dog heels on command before crossing a street, give a little praise but no more than this. Excessive praise will make your dog excited and less responsive to your commands. For the extra piece-of-mind consider using a long leash even once your dog has proven that it can obey your instructions.
The best way to teach your dog to heal is to walk around with your dog and to stop on occasions and request that it "Heels". Give your dog a small treat when he follows your command. Little by little he will learn the heeling is a good behavior. If this training simply isn't working for you, I suggest you get your dog to a professional dog trainer or use a dog training guide to train it not to chase cars.
When your dog has mastered the heel command you will be able to walk your dog with much more confidence. It's important that you don't get too carried away in praising your dog as this will only make him excited and possibly revert back to bad behaviors. - 20511
