Yes, you read that correctly. It's highly likely that you have some habits that are making your dog irritated and less obedient. Ingrid Jungerman, a dog trainer, quoted in BestLife, cleared up the doubts and recommended simple solutions to solve the problem.
For example, she advises that you don't repeat a command many times, even if the dog is not following it. It's simple.
"Instead of repeating this command, you should say it once, use the leash, a snack or something that allows you to guide the dog to the position" she explains. When the dog follows the command, you have to acknowledge it with praise.
You also shouldn't call the dog in an aggressive way when it's distracted. "When you're frustrated and show frustration in your tone of voice, this will not be appealing to your dog", she adds.
This means that "you have to be more exciting than what your dog is interested in, this doesn't imply a harsh tone".
