Lots of people enjoy owning a dog. Dogs can bring lots of happiness and love into our lives. Know that it takes a lot of dedication to raise a puppy. The puppy will need plenty of training. Take a look at the advice presented above, and you can properly train your dog very quickly.
When crate training a puppy, try to make your puppy feel like the crate is his home. Feed them in their crate and keep it open for them to come in and out. This will create a good association between the crate and their food.
Your dog should always give you its attention when asked. After you do this enough times, it will become easier for you to get your dog’s attention. The dog will look for your signals.
To strengthen your training efforts, you can use a designated verbal command to help your animal know what your expectations are and when they have been fulfilled. It’s faster to tell your dog “yes” than it is to find and give it a treat.
It is very easy to teach a pooch to roll over as long as you have some tasty treats on hand. The dog has to lay down first. The next step is to palm the treat and hold your hand beside your dog’s head. Slowly raise the treat over your dog’s head to the opposite side. As the dog uses his nose to track the morsel, he will simultaneously roll his entire body over. Be sure to say ROLL OVER as your dog is rolling. Eventually, he will learn to perform the trick upon command. Be patient if they don’t get it right away; they’ll get it soon enough!
Use these tips now that you know them. Practice patience and reward your dog with tons of positive reinforcement. It takes time, but the reward of an obedient pet is well worth the wait.
