Train Your New Puppy How To Listen To YOU!

Make sure you’re the one walking the dog and that it’s not the other way around. The key to mastering dog behavior is training, and this article has all the advice you could need.

Give your puppy time to be okay with a crate by taking the training one small step at a time. Once they have grown accustomed to being in the crate with the gate open, try closing the gate and feeding them small treats through the crate. At first, leave the dog enclosed in the crate for only short periods of time, such as 10 seconds, and then gradually increase the duration. If you notice the animal becoming tense or confused, you are probably proceeding too quickly.

Verbal corrections must be sharp and direct. Don’t rant on to the dog about the thinks that he did wrong. Just say no, then let them know what behavior you want to see. Let your dog know that if you raise your voice they need to pay attention.

Try to think like your dog. When your dog is slow to learn, you may become frustrated. Do not give up! Switch things up by thinking like a dog. Imagine the world like they do and that can provide you with a fresh perspective on training.

Give your puppy with lots of chewable toys, otherwise he might alleviate his teething pain on your nice furniture. Put the chew toy in front of it immediately so it learns that this toy is what it should be chewing. If your puppy is in a lot of pain due to teething, a frozen wet washcloth is ideal for him to chew on.

If you lack dog training knowledge, it may be that you are feeling quite frustrated with your pet. Use these tips and your sorrows should float away.
