Are you wanting to have an indoor dog but are struggling with this because your dog isn’t respecting your personal stuff? You have suffered through chewed up furniture and dog waste on your floor, and it is now time for you to properly train your dog. In this article, we will review proven methods for teaching your dog house manners.
Timing is critical during dog training, and you must spend sufficient time on training without doing too much. Gradually increase the amount of time you spend training them each session. End the session as soon as your dog’s attention begins to stray.
Your dog should know when calm time is to be had. 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. When you ignore the dog on entry, they shouldn’t bother you about playing.
Monitor your own behavior to ensure you aren’t reinforcing your dog’s negative behaviors by mistake. Essentially, you must not give your dog something positive, like attention or a treat, when it behaves in a way you want to classify as negative. You should not pet your dog when it jumps on you or acknowledge its barking.
Have frequent or as necessary mini-training sessions to reinforce and keep the rules fresh in your dog’s mind. Do not assume that your dog will remember his training all his life. Some dogs will revert back to negative behaviors if the training does not continue. So, it’s very important that you review your training with your dog regularly.
Finally, you would like your dog to live indoors with you, but it is becoming quite a challenge. Belongings are get destroyed, and you’re becoming impatient. Utilizing the guidance presented here, you can teach you dog to behave in a manner that makes him welcome inside your home.
