Train Your Dog With Care And Consistency

TIP! When doing crate training, train your dog incrementally rather than trying to do it all at once. When your dog appears to be at ease while inside the crate with the door ajar, you can help him adjust to the crate even further by slowly latching the door and rewarding him with treats fed to him through the spaces between the wires.

The reason why so many dogs are in shelters is because it doesn’t work out well with the owner. However, this does not have to be. Any dog can be trained to become well-behaved, healthy and happy. If you can spend some time and follow instructions, you can easily train your dog.

TIP! Looks at it from your dog’s point-of-view. You can easily become frustrated with your pet if they do not learn the basics quickly or not at all.

When you verbally correct your dog, do it quickly and concisely. Avoid going on a rant about the dog’s “badness”. Just say no and direct them on what it is you desire for them to do. Also speak with authority so they understand you mean business.

TIP! Dogs generally focus on one thing while ignoring everything around them, unless something interrupts that intense focus. Eventually, you will be able to ensure that your dog is more focused on you and your commands than other distractions.

Reinforce calm behavior upon your arrival. Your pet needs play time (and you might too), but your pet needs to be calm when you step into rooms most of the time. Don’t acknowledge your dog until you decide. This will establish a controlled atmosphere.

TIP! When tying up your dog, make sure it is not close to another chained dog. The chain of one dog could become wrapped around the other and, as the dogs struggle to free themselves, one or both could be injured.

Monitor your own behavior to ensure you aren’t reinforcing your dog’s negative behaviors by mistake. Don’t ever reward a dog that is behaving badly. For instance, it will be difficult or impossible to train your dog not to jump on people if you give your pet a friendly neck-scratch when he or she jumps on you.

TIP! Teach your puppy his name when you first start training him, as this creates a bond between the two of you. Use their name often, and then teach them how to come to you when called.

Your dog must respect you in order for training to work. You have to show your dog that you are in control or he will not obey or respect you. Your dog should not walk ahead of you, because that indicates a position of leadership.

TIP! Silence your dog’s excessive barking by teaching them a silencing command. Each time your dog barks, wave a treat in front of him and voice your command.

Make training for your dog a regular, repeated part of your time together to keep them familiar with the rules they’ve learned. Pet owners often believe that once their dog completes a training program, the process is over. Pets, just like humans, need to be reminded of the rules now and then. Your dog must follow the rule system strictly.

TIP! Make sure you’re aware of any other dogs in the area when walking your dog. It’s not always the owner that is responsible for a dog being aggressive.

Teaching a dog how to roll over isn’t too hard with a few treats in your hand. First, make sure the dog is in a laying position. Next, hold the treat close to the floor on one side of the dog’s head, and slowly bringing it upwards and over to the dog’s other side. He will naturally use his nose to follow the treat, thus rolling over his whole body. While he rolls, say “roll over” and repeat this action until he is able to roll over with only the command. Be patient with him when you are teaching this because once he learns it, he can be quite the show-off amongst your friends.

TIP! If you take your dog with you when you travel, pack everything he needs for eating, sleeping and eliminating. Items like food and water bowls, bathroom bags and paper towels are important in having a very relaxing ride.

Don’t bother with shock collars. These things rarely work as promised, and they’re usually much more expensive compared to the traditional training methods. These devices can stifle your dog’s natural reactions and have negative effects on even good or acceptable behaviors. These methods of training generally fail.

TIP! One of the first commands you should teach your dog is “down”. You can use this in emergencies, but also as a stepping stone to many other training skills.

Avoid accidents when toilet training your puppy. Pay attention to the cues your dog displays to indicate that he needs to be outside. Pacing back and forth, snuffing and whining are some common signs. When this happens, take action immediately. Take your dog outside and escort him to his favorite spot. Reward the dog for using the bathroom outdoors. In time, the dog will ask when he wants to go outside.

TIP! Regularly challenge your dog. Quiz him on what he knows, even if you know he’s still got it.

You can have a dog who is obedient, healthy and happy. Training your pet, offering him plenty of love and attention, and being mindful of your dog’s needs are key. Embracing the ideas presented here will lead to you owning a pet that you will always be proud of.
