Why Native Dogs Don't Get Lost Easily, While Pet Dogs Frequently 'Leave Their Hands'
These two dog training methods are different.
One: Most native dogs are raised through free-range, and they are not usually leashed. Furthermore, native dogs are bred to be guardians of their homes while their owners are away, and they will protect their property independently. They also know how to do it themselves.
Two: Because they are free-range, the benefit is that dogs will naturally play on their own. Although they may not be able to go far at first, they will gradually expand their territory and remember the surrounding roads. We often see dogs playing freely in rural areas, even if they are familiar with the route. They will suddenly stop at a certain place to urinate. This helps them to better understand their surroundings and take short walks on their own, just like their own backyard. No one would get lost in their own backyard.
Three: Unlike pet dogs, which are like flowers grown in a greenhouse. They are also taken out on leashes by their owners, and they only recognize the routes they are frequently taken around. They have a limited understanding of their surroundings and rely on scent recognition. Therefore, they are easily lost in unfamiliar environments, often going further and further out of fear and a desire to return home.
