Your training sessions must be long enough for your dog to learn the desired behavior but no so long that he becomes bored. Begin with a short session training and increase the time daily. End the session as soon as your dog’s attention begins to stray.
Always treat a dog after completing tasks. It is important for the dog to realize when he exhibits the proper behavior in response to your commands. This is a good way to make your dog know the difference between a good and bad thing.
