Komondors are smart dogs and when their training starts early enough, in the right hands and environment, they are easy to train. They can be strong willed and stubborn which is why they are best suited to owners who are familiar with the particular needs of this type of guarding dog. As such, they are not the best choice for first time owners who might find it too challenging to train them.
The key to successfully training a Komondor is to make their training as interesting as possible and to avoid too much repetition. It's also a good idea to keep training sessions shorter which helps dogs stay focussed on what it’s being asked of them, bearing in mind that the more intelligent a dog is, the faster they get bored and Komondors are very smart dogs. They do not answer well to harsh correction or any sort of heavy handed training methods, but they do respond extremely well to positive reinforcement which always brings the best out of these intelligent and quick witted dogs, especially when there are high value rewards involved.
