Engaging in proper training your dog can result in a happy, peaceful home for you as well as the dog. Use some the tips in the following article. You may find some of these techniques to really help improve the relationship you have with your dog.
Your dog’s diet plays a huge role in their training and establishing a definitive feeding routine is important. Training your dog to expect that when fed, once or twice a day, you will be removing the food bowl in 10-15 minutes, will lay down a feeding schedule that your dog will adhere to. By doing this, your dog will eventually learn to finish their food in one sitting, making feeding a little easier on you.
Chew Toys
Give them chew toys for pain relief while teething, and keep everything else out of reach. Replace the item immediately with one of the dog’s own chew toys. A wet frozen washcloth is great for a puppy, who has teething pain, to chew on.
Dogs have the uncanny ability to have single-minded focus when something catches their attention. Once your dog knows his attention command, you will be able to coerce him to ignore almost anything.
Keep your dogs tied at a safe distance from each other. The dogs could get wrapped up and they may be injured. This is especially dangerous if one dog is larger than the other, as it could use its superior size to maneuver the other dog into a dangerous position.
Teach your puppy his or her name before you start to train him or her, as this creates a bond. Use his name frequently, and train him to come to you when called. You should make sure your puppy learns their name and knows to respond to it. Try to spend a good amount of time with your new dog. This will help them become more receptive to harder training later.
This advice is applicable for any age or obedience level. Remember to remain patient as you apply this advice. If you do so, you both will be at your happiest.
