Every dog needs to be trained in the right way to behave, and deterred from bad behavior. The following article will give you some helpful information on canine training.
When you do give your dog correction verbally, make those corrections short, sharp and to the point. Don’t rant on and on about how bad your dog is. Simply tell them no an instead steer them towards what you’d like them to do. Use a tone which is obviously one of consternation.
Do not tie a dog up near another dog, or dogs. They could tangle the chains in such a way so that one or both of the dogs are stuck or injured. Becoming wrapped up could also cause death if one of the dogs gets so tangled and wrapped up his airway closes.
Set small, easy goals when you start training your dog. Smaller, more easily learned behaviors are more likely to produce timely successes and a solid foundation for future training efforts. This will produce better results as you proceed with training.
Be careful not to spend too much time at once training your dog. Devoting strict amounts of time to any particular aspect of training will have your dog feeling distracted and bored. Keep sessions to a minimum at first. Target 10 minute sessions for increased success.
Do not drag out your training sessions for too long. When your dog doesn’t get bored, they’ll be a better training partner. If you wish to do more training, give your dog a play break to stretch their legs and relax before resuming their training.
Untrained or poorly trained dogs can wreak havoc on your home and drive you crazy in the process. With the advice from this article, however, you should be better prepared to go out there and teach your dog the right skills.
