It is tough to figure out positive methods for training your dog, because he is a family member after all. This article will help you train your dog properly while having fun with your pet. Education is essential for success, and learning the right way to train your dog is step one.
When you are working on crate training with your dog or puppy small steps is what works best for them to get used to it. As soon as they start to feel comfortable in the crate when the door is open, try closing the gate and have them eat inside. In the beginning it is important to only leave the dog in the crate for a few seconds. After a while you will be able to leave them in the crate for longer amounts of time. If the dog becomes agitated, slow down a little more to make them more comfortable.
Ensure that your dog gets plenty of exercise and stimulation. Dogs can get bored easily. A dog without interest in what you’re doing is more difficult to train. A happy and well-exercised dog is an easily trained dog. Regularly take a walk or run with your dog.
Multiple repetitions will be necessary for a dog to learn new commands. It isn’t uncommon for 25-50 repetitions of this same command to be used for the dog to understand it. Keep working patiently on the command- he’ll get it with time.
You can train a pooch to roll over fairly quickly if you have some treats to hand out. First, have the dog lay down. Next, you must hold one treat close to the floor off to one side of their head and slowly bring it up and over the dog’s head to the opposite side. Your dog is probably going to follow the treat in your hand with his nose, which means he will rollover his whole body. When they roll over, yell “roll over.” Keep doing this until they do it just with the command. Do not get mad if it takes several tries. Once they learn this particular trick, they will be popular at the dog park!
