Your dog is a member of your family. Sadly, your canine will not find your possessions to be as important as you do. If it can be chewed, it will be. The following article will show you how you can train your dog to let him know the rules of your house.
Always reward good, calm behavior. Give your dog a treat after they properly respond to your commands, but only if they are nice and calm. Though you might be satisfied with this type of accomplishment, excitement may lead to your pet having diminished control over the situation. Maintain a calm atmosphere and provide an appropriate reward.
Consistency is the key to puppy crate training. When your puppy gets out of its crate, you need to give it the occasion to relieve itself right away. The dog will eventually learn that there are proper times to go outside and use the restroom.
Shock Collars
Don’t waste your money on cruel, ineffective gadgets such as shock collars. They might not work like they say they do and they cost too much. Plus, using shock collars could discourage your dog in having good behavior. The negative training causes negative outcomes.
You should always say commands in the same tone and volume. An authoritarian tone informs your dog he is expected to obey. Doing this also ensures that your dog will know the difference between your “you’re in trouble” voice and your “do as I say” voice.
If your canine jumps on top of you, gently grab their paws and squeeze them; this will tell them that they cannot jump. You will not be hurting them if you squeeze them softly, they just do not like it. After a while, they’ll stop jumping due to this uncomfortable feeling.
Training your dog is an important step in pet ownership. Doing so can prevent injury to your dog and others, as well as save a lot of frustration and money. Apply the tips you learned here to your training your dog plan and your dog can be the well-behaved pet you’ve always wanted.
