Training your new dog can be discouraging at first.
Try to view things from your dog’s eyes. Frustration may come quickly if your dog does not pick up your training of basic things in a rapid manner. Don’t give up! Think how they think like your dog! Imagining the world as they see things may give you a different perspective in training them.
You need to show your dog how to walk the right way using his leash. This will help keep your dog and you are both safe when going for walks.
Accidents will happen when a puppy is being potty outside. Clean accidents up training. Urine and feces smells will stay in the carpet if you don’t clean them up straight away, which will lead to your dog repeatedly using the bathroom in that spot.
If you’re taking your dog on a trip, don’t forget all it’s supplies. Items like water and food bowls, bathroom bags and paper towels are important in having a very relaxing ride.
Take your dog outside every hour to help teach him this is where you want him to use the bathroom at least once each hour.Give him a little praise if he goes to the bathroom outside. Don’t yell at your dog after an accident. He does not understand what he did wrong and will learn nothing.
Is your pet dog getting proper nutrition? Your dog will be more energetic if you are feeding him a species-appropriate diet. Talk to your dog’s vet regarding specific food needs for pets.

Make sure to get your dog neutered or she is about six months old. This should be happening roughly at the same time as your first obedience training. A newly neutered or spayed dog is a better pet and a more attentive obedience student. Your dog will be a better companion after training and he or she will lead to a better life overall for the animal.
A well-fed dog who has plenty of fun play toys for entertainment is much less likely to dig in the trash. Empty your trash regularly, especially if they contain mean and/or bones.
If your dog drops the ball nearby and you walk to pick the ball up, you are showing that your dog is in fact the leader. Your dog will understand what is required if he must always bring the ball directly to you.
Make sure that your dog has gotten its shots. If you are finding your dog is having difficulty with some aspects of training, or you notice that he has started to backslide, be sure his health is good. Dogs hide any pain and discomfort very easily. Behavioral changes may be the only way you will know if there is a deeper issue. For instance, aggression can be a sign of pain, and a sudden increase in bathrooming accidents can be a sign of a UTI.
Introductions to other animals should occur slowly and carefully. Before you even consider adopting a new pet, consider how it will affect the pets you already have. You should make sure your life and personality so that you can be happy as well.
If you dog barks because he is bored, then you should be prepared to take the blame. Boredom barking indicates that the dog is not have an effective outlet to expend his mental and physical energy. If you are not at home, leave your dog some chew toys.
