A combination of conditioned and unconditioned stimuli must be used in training Greyhounds to establish and strengthen conditioned reflexes. Conditioned reflex is the result of the combination of conditioned stimulus and unconditioned stimulus. Without unconditioned reflex, conditioned reflex cannot be formed.

For example, taking the title is the Gree dog's instinct, which belongs to the unconditioned reflex of the Gree dog, and is the basis for establishing the conditioned reflex. In the training, as long as the appropriate grasping objects and passwords (conditioned stimulus) are matched, the clinching actions required by the training subjects can be trained.

Judging from the acting time of the two stimuli, the effect of the conditioned stimulus should be slightly earlier than that of the unconditioned stimulus. In this way, the conditioned reflex is established quickly, and it is also consolidated. Otherwise, the conditioned reflex is difficult to form, and even if it is formed, it is very slow and unconsolidated.

This requires that when we train a dog, the conditioned stimulus such as passwords and gestures to the dog must precede the unconditioned stimulus of pulling the leash and pressing a certain part of the dog's body. Only in this way can the Greyhound quickly learn the movements taught.

If both stimuli are given at the same time, the establishment of the conditioned reflex is slower. If the unconditioned stimulus precedes the conditioned stimulus, it will be difficult for the dog to learn the actions taught.

The intensity of the stimulus must be correctly controlled. Stimulation that is too strong or too weak will not have a good effect. certainly. The nerve type of the dog and its sensitivity to stimuli should be taken into account. Often when the same intensity of stimulation acts on different dogs, the effect is different. In general, conditioned reflexes can only be established when the physiological intensity of the conditioned stimulus is weaker than that of the unconditioned stimulus.

To establish a good conditioned reflex, the puppy's cerebral cortex must be kept awake and undisturbed by other stimuli. If the Greyhound is dozing or depressed, the formation of conditioned reflexes will be very slow. Not even possible.

6 The unconditioned reflex centers related to the establishment of conditioned reflexes must be in a fairly excited state. Unconditioned reflex is the basis for building conditioned reflex. If the unconditioned reflex center lacks sufficient excitement, it is very difficult to establish a conditioned reflex.

Precautions

In training the conditioned reflex of the dog, pay attention to the dog's running speed not too fast hurry to avoid muscle strain.

For better training, Gree dogs need wonderful nutrition
