Training

Dogs that are more intelligent can sometimes be stubborn and resist training. However, the Mi-Ki is lucky because it is both smart and really wants to make its owners happy. They are quick to understand and follow basic training commands. However, it is important for them to receive ongoing training to keep their minds occupied and their physical health in good condition. Mi-Ki dogs are very good at learning tricks and being disciplined in activities like agility training. Surprisingly, they can also be trained to use a litter box. A Mi-Ki's training should include enough socialisation from the beginning and continue throughout their life.

Mi-Kis are very friendly dogs, but they might need help learning how to act in busy places. Socialisation is very important for people to learn how to fit in different situations and to take care of their mental health.

To effectively train Mi-Ki dogs, it's important to be consistent and repeat the training. Using the same commands and techniques all the time during training and practising regularly helps to make sure the behaviours you want stick.

It is important for Mi-Kids to be socialised because they might not be very friendly or outgoing with people they don't know at first.

It's important for kids to meet new people, go to new places, and try new things while they're young. This helps them feel more confident and grow up to be successful adults.

Using positive reinforcement like giving treats, praise, and toys can really help to encourage and reward good behaviour in Mi-Ki dogs. It's better to not punish or hurt your dog because it can actually make things worse and damage your relationship with them.

If training is difficult or if you need help with advanced behaviours, you can consider getting professional obedience training. Getting a Mi-Ki dog into a program with a good trainer can give helpful advice and support to help the owner and dog succeed in their training.
