How long does it take for a dog to reconcile with its owner after being beaten?
It is generally not advisable to punish a dog with beating, as each dog is an independent individual with a different psychological state. The emotions generated after being beaten will also vary among dogs. Long-term beating can cause a dog to develop a reflexive fear, making it difficult for the dog to reconcile with its owner. Therefore, it is not recommended for owners to educate their dogs in this way.
During the growth process of a dog, there will inevitably be some behavioral problems. Most owners educate their dogs through beating, but not all dogs are suitable for this method. Moreover, some owners do not know the correct way to educate their dogs, causing some dogs to not understand why they were beaten, and instead developing a victim mentality due to the pain. In some cases, dogs may even repeat their mistakes out of confusion, leading to more beatings and causing them to develop fear and avoidance towards their owners. Some outgoing dogs may even develop a rebellious mentality after being beaten, leading to deliberate acts of refusal, such as not eating. Dogs with gentle personalities may exhibit signs of depression when subjected to long-term beating.
By comparison, it is more advisable for owners to adopt positive reinforcement and train their dogs to develop good habits. Patience is required during training, and dogs should be given enough time to understand. This method not only helps dogs develop good habits but also fosters a close and trusting relationship between dogs and their owners.
