Rewarding your dog properly and generously is the key to training.Giving them treats at the proper time and in the proper amount is crucial. This is because dogs tend not to understand what it’s being rewarded for when they do not receive their treat at the right time.
Establish a quiet environment when you go into a room that your dog is in.It is okay to have play time, but your dog should stay calm when you come into the room.
Make sure you use control to reward your dog.When your dog does commands correctly, you can certainly give a reward. If you get excited, the dog will become that way too.
Give your puppy some toys to chew on so they do not hurt while teething, otherwise he might alleviate his teething pain on your nice furniture. Give it one of his toys right away.
When a dog jumps up on you, make sure that it becomes known. This will not hurt him, but it will give them an uncomfortable feeling that will help teach them not to do it again. They will quickly learn to stop jumping because they don’t like the reaction they get.
Have a good time while training session with your dog. Taking some time to have fun with your dog makes your dog like you more, and your dog will be more likely to respond well to training. Training may be a fun activity, but you should also set aside time that is just for play.
Primary Reinforcement
Primary reinforcement is the method commonly used to train a dog. Primary reinforcement involves utilizing something that the dog to love as a reward for good behavior. Some examples of primary reinforcements include your dog’s belly. This lets your dog know how to obtain something it wants.
Be sure to provide consistency in training. If more than one family member is training your pet, make sure they all you the same commands, discipline and rewards are concerned. Your puppy will learn quickly if the same behavior.
A squirt of water in your dog is misbehaving. This will show the pooch that these behaviors are doing is wrong.
Do not quit when you are trying to train your dog. You will need to give your dog continuous reinforcement, the dog may forget what you taught it. Keep in mind that in addition to giving your dog food and shelter, and just as important as providing him with food and shelter.
Take your dog to the bathroom. Give him praise when he makes waste outside. Never scold your dog for relieving itself in the house. He is not yet and punishment would serve no purpose.
Training Sessions
Training sessions should stay short. Training sessions should be no longer than fifteen minutes at a time could leave both you and your dog tired and frustrated.
Is your dog eating healthy? Your dog will have better and more consistent energy if you give it food suited for dogs. Talk to your dog’s vet regarding specific food needs for pets.
Training should be fun for the dog. Keep your training lessons between ten to fifteen minutes or so your dog becoming disinterested and distracted. Make sure to praise your dog with praises when he does something right. When training is fun, they will listen better.
Even if it’s hard for you, you should always be patient with your dog. Your dog doesn’t understand English after all. Your dog will not understand why you are acting a certain way. Remain calm and take a break when you become too frustrated during the training session.
Make sure you have your dog neutered or spayed at six months old.This should be done at the beginning of obedience class. A spayed or neutered dog is a better pet and a more obedient. Your dog will be a better companion after training and this will live longer.
Make sure that your dog has gotten its shots. If you see your dog struggling or regressing with his training, take him to the vet to make sure there isn’t a health issue. Dogs are good at hiding discomfort and pain for a long time. Behavioral changes may be the only way you will know if there is a deeper issue. For example, sudden aggression in an otherwise docile dog can indicate that he is in pain.
Discourage unwanted behavior that occurs when you see it. You must learn to tell your dog in a very firm voice. Do not scream or yell and hit your dog at all. Discourage incorrect behavior as soon as it happens. Dogs don’t remember much for a long time. If you wait, they won’t understand what they did wrong.
Try introducing a clicker to help enforce good behavior. Try using this technique right away, and doing this several times over a few days.Soon, your dog will associate the click with ‘reward’ or other positive actions, making the clicker to a tool that can shape desirable behavior.
Be realistic when it comes to changing behavior that has gone on for years.If a dog’s previous owner or you have allowed a dog to sleep on furniture or jump on people for many years, it will take a long time to teach it to change this behavior.
Regular Basis
Training your dog must be done in a regular basis. Before allowing your dog to eat, pet him or feed him, command him to sit.If you constantly reinforce your commands, your dog will get used to hearing commands on a regular basis in any situation. If you only reinforce training at specific times, you may end up with a dog that only “sits” in the living room at 6 p.m.!
No matter how long you have owned your dog, you can always train them. You need to start working on correcting the bad behaviors as soon as possible so injury is avoided to your pet or others.
