Trainability

Welsh Terriers are smart little dogs, but they can be strong willed at times. As such their training has to be consistent and always fair. They need to be handled with a firm, yet gentle hand so they understand their place in the pack and who is the alpha dog in a household. These little terriers need to know who they can look to for direction and guidance. They also need to know what an owner expects of them to be truly obedient, well-balanced dogs.

Their training has to start early paying particular attention to the “recall” command because if a Welshie picks up an interesting scent or see something in the distance, they might not be able to resist taking off so they can investigate what it is. Like many other breeds, they are sensitive little terriers and therefore they do not respond to any sort of harsh correction or heavy handed training methods. They do, however, answer very well to positive reinforcement which brings out the best out in Welshies every time.
