Training a dog is a wonderful thing to do for both of you. Training your dog the right way will keep your pooch safe and happy. Here are some suggestions on how you can train your canine or find a good trainer.

If you are working on crate training your indoor puppy or dog, you can always try a few tricks. If the dog doesn’t want to get in the crate try putting a chew toy in it and close the gate when they’re not there. Your dog will get excited at the prospect of the treat and soon be eager to enter the crate. After they have entered the crate, be sure to give them praise so they understand that they have done a good thing.

Give your puppy something it can chew to help it lessen teething pains, like a toy or a piece of rope. Keep any items you treasure out of reach of your puppy while it is teething. Take it away, and give him a chew toy. In cases where your puppy is suffering a great deal of pain, try soaking a washcloth in water and freezing it as a numbing chew toy.

You have to be consistent with the crate training of your new puppy. When letting a puppy out of a crate, you need to let them relieve themselves immediately. Over time, the puppy will be able to wait until the appropriate opportunity to answer the call of nature.

With any luck, this advice will increase the pleasure your dog brings to you and your loved ones. A well-trained dog is a happy member of a happy family. Regardless of whether you undertake training on your own or with the assistance of a professional, the end results will be well worth the time or money.
