Dogs, like TV remote controls, they must be programmed if you want them to work properly. Your dog is capable of doing what you would like him to do, but you have to train him the right way. The potential is already within your dog, you just have to use the tips below to bring it out.
There are different tricks you can try when you are crate training your dog. To entice a hesitant puppy into the crate, give it the incentive of a toy or bone inside, with the door shut. As soon as they smell the tempting treat, they will want to get into the crate to enjoy it. Give your dog some praise when he gets inside, so that he further associates being in the crate with good behavior.
Only reward your dog if they are calm. Once your dog follows your command, reward his behavior. If you get excited, the dog will become excited and everything will be out of control. Stay calm, require calm from the dog, and give the reward.
Chew Toys
Teething is painful, and providing chew toys helps alleviate the pain. Keep items that are potentially more painful out of reach. Give it one of his chew toys immediately. Try a frozen washcloth to alleviate the pain of teething for your puppy.
It is easy to train a roll with treats. First, place your dog in the “down” position. Then, use the treat to draw his head from one side to the other. The dog ought to follow his treat with the nose, prompting him to flop his entire body over. As he rolls over say out loud, “roll over.” Repeat this until he rolls over with the command alone. This may take time, so don’t become frustrated.
Don’t waste your money on expensive training products, such as shock collars. Most of the time these don’t function as they should and can cost quite a bit of money. In addition, shock collars and some similar items can actually discourage your dog from practicing good behavior. These tools often do more harm than good.
Be prepared to reward the dog as soon as it completes a positive behavior. It is important for your pet to understand that you have certain expectations, what those expectations are, and that he will be rewarded for complying. This is the proper way to make sure the dog knows the difference between good behavior and bad.
Walk Properly
You should train your dog to walk properly on his leash. Learning to walk properly on his leash will keep you both safe when you are outdoors.
Use a steady and commanding tone when speaking to your dog. Dogs can easily sense how their owners or trainers feel. Use a stern voice when you are correcting your dog.
A training program that pushes the limits of a dog’s attention and endurance is not likely to produce good results. Puppies have short attention spans, therefore keep your sessions short and provide ample amounts of praise. Your puppy will happier with the experience, and less resistant to your future efforts. He will be looking forward to them instead.
Once someone knows how to train their dog, all they need to do is practice. As much as the owner will be pleased with what the dog has learned, the dog will also be happy.
