Expert Answer

The Tibetan Mastiff is very stubborn and irritable, so when training keep it leashed, stay patient, tire it out first, and only when it is calm do simple training like sit, down, stand, and walk. If it cooperates, reward it with food to build training enthusiasm. When it shows bad behavior, stop it firmly; if the owner is too soft and gentle, the mastiff will not recognize or obey..
