How to Train your SKYE TERRIER

Training Your Skye Terrier

The Skye Terrier is a long, elegant, and highly dignified breed known for its immense loyalty. They are cautious, independent thinkers.

Key Training Tips:

• Intense Socialization: They are naturally highly reserved with strangers. Massive early socialization is required to prevent them from becoming overly suspicious or aggressive.
• Respect Their Dignity: They do not tolerate being teased or handled roughly. Use gentle persuasion, positive reinforcement, and mutual respect.
• Leash Manners: They have a strong prey drive. Loose-leash walking and secure fencing are absolute requirements.

They are deeply devoted to their owners and make wonderful, quiet companions for calm, experienced households.
