It is common for dog owners to wonder why their pet is not listening to them or responding to their request. When is there a communication problem? We tell you everything!
There are several reasons why a dog may not obey.
  • a lack of clear communication: a dog may not understand what you want from him if you don't clearly communicate your requests

  • distractions: dogs can be easily distracted by their surroundings, which may cause them to ignore your orders. For example, a park with congeners, ducks, a person eating next door...



  • fear or stress: A dog that is feeling anxious or stressed may not be able to focus on your requests and may not obey.

  • a lack of motivation: If a dog doesn't see the point in following a command, it may choose not to obey.
How do you solve these problems?


Use clear and consistent signals to communicate with your dog. This makes it easier for your dog to understand what you want from him and to respond accordingly.

En rewarding desired behaviors With congratulations, caresses, or treats, you reinforce the idea that obedience is good for your dog. This motivates him to obey more regularly.

Work gradually in increasingly distracting environments, helping your dog focus on you despite distractions.



By using caring education techniques and by avoiding punitive methods, you're helping your dog reduce stress and anxiety, which can improve their obedience levels.

Be patient and persistent, Dog training takes time. Don't expect immediate results and be prepared to repeat the exercises as many times as needed.

Stay consistent, Always use the same commands and signals to ask your dog for a behavior. This will make it easier to understand and respond.

Work in short sessions, dogs learn best during quick and frequent training sessions. Plan for 5 to 10 minute workouts several times a day, rather than long, casual sessions.

Don't forget to reward your dog each time he responds positively to an order. This will strengthen the connection between the desired behavior and the reward, making it more likely to repeat that behavior in the future.

Work on socialization by exposing your dog to a variety of situations, people, and animals to help them feel comfortable and better manage stress. Good socialization will make it easier for your dog to obey in a variety of situations.

If you are having trouble getting your dog to obey despite your best efforts, consult a dog trainer for advice and additional support.

Your dog does not have to eat after you!

The alpha male theory is a widely held belief that suggests that a dominant hierarchy must be established between owner and dog, and that the owner must eat before his dog to assert his leadership position. However, recent research has questioned this theory and has shown that establishing a relationship based on trust and cooperation is more beneficial for dogs and their owners. It is therefore no longer appropriate to have your dog eat after yourself. We explain to you why!
