You might have thought you had a good dog, but you could have ended up with a bad one. You can do just a little training, and you will see that your dog will be a better dog in no time.
When correcting your dog verbally, use sharp, short, concise commands. Avoid going on a rant about the dog’s “badness”. Just say no and show them the behavior you expect. Also make sure that the volume of your voice commands their attention and lets them know that you mean business.
Only reward your dog if they are calm. Reward them only when your dog is calm after it performs a trick. You might be happy about the progress your dog has made but you need to quell your excitment. Be calm, expect calm, then reward appropriately.
When house training your dog, keep in mind that whatever you feed him must come out. Feed your dog a high-quality diet three times a day. Doing this will provide you with some idea of when you should let your puppy go outside to use the restroom. This will decrease the risk of any accidents.
Your dog needs to understand that ‘no’ means they need to stop what they are doing right away. Find positive and supportive ways to train your furry friend. Saying ‘no’ doesn’t help your dog understand how he should react to you. Make sure that your training regimen is unique to your specific dog.
The majority of pet owners are pleasantly surprised to find out that training their dog to learn basic commands is a process that takes only a short amount of time each day and fits smoothly into their lifestyle. Moreover, they are often astonished at how quickly their dog begins to respond to the commands. So if your dogs relationship with you seems strained, try using these tips.
