A trained dog is a happy dog. Your dog will be more predictable when he is trained in the right way. Once your dog is trained, you’ll feel more comfortable leaving him inside the house alone, having visitors over with him around and taking him with you out in public. Although not easy, the amount of time devoted to training your dog tricks and manner will be well-spent time.
Give your puppy his own toys that he can chew to remove pain due to teething, and keep him away from chewing other items. Give it an actual chew toy in its place. Teething can cause puppies significant pain. Give them relief by letting them chew on a washcloth that is wet and frozen.
The rule of thumb with puppies and house training is to remember: what is eaten will pass. Make sure that you feed your dog at least three times per day with good food. Doing this will provide you with some idea of when you should let your puppy go outside to use the restroom. This will decrease the risk of any accidents.
Approach an unknown dog slowly and let him smell your outstretched hand. The dog will become familiar with your smell and recognize the scent in the future. After the dog knows your scent, he is unlikely to fear you and may be more willing to heed your command.
Canine training is big on making rules for the relationship just like you would with people, you will have such a better time with each other once the rules are in place. The most important thing is to use positive reinforcement to remind your dog what he has learned. Do not let him stray from good behavior over time, and stay firm if he does. Once your dog learns the basic training skills, the sky is the limit!
