How to get your pup trained properly


Congratulations on being a new dog owner. So, what are you going to do next? Training your dog is beneficial to both you and your pet. The following tips will tell you the inside scoop on how to get your pup trained properly.

It is vitally important that your dog is treated in the same manner, given the same commands and rewarded similarly by every member of your family. This is the only way to ensure the training sticks. Consistent methods is your best bet to get your dog to remember something. Make sure that everyone who trains your dog does it in the same manner as you in order to avoid confusion.



 If you want to be sure you are successful in your dog training efforts, it is vital that you keep your dog active throughout its life. Dogs were not meant to lay around all day. To keep them happy and healthy, they have to run around or do a job. Try enrolling in an agility course, going for a run, or practicing Frisbee skills with your dog. It is best to make sure your dog is moving just as much as possible and does not get bored.

 Positive reinforcement should include more than just dog treats. Dogs love treats, and easily learn new tricks when this is their motivation. However, you may not always have a treat with you to congratulate you dog outside of regular training sessions. Good behavior can be rewarded with petting and hugging, which are two great treat replacements.

 Clickers can be great behavioral training tools. If you give your dog an award when you used the clicker, it will be easier to train. You should click, and then immediately treat. This method will be necessary until your dog learns that the "reward" is the clicking sound alone. Your dog quickly learns that the clicking sound means a treat is coming, so you can then use the clicker to train.

 Provide your puppy with his own chew toys to alleviate the pain of teething, and try to keep other items out of reach. Give it an actual chew toy in its place. In cases where your puppy is suffering a great deal of pain, try soaking a washcloth in water and freezing it as a numbing chew toy.

 Appropriate training can help ease your dogs separation anxiety the times you are away from home. If your dog makes it a habit to bark a lot or tear up the home while you are away, it more than likely is suffering from separation anxiety. Proper training can teach your dog appropriate ways to entertain himself while you are not home. Make sure as well that you give your dog lots of love to ease the anxiety.

 For a happier and more content dog, be sure to provide it with things to do that will stimulate its thinking and keep its mind active. Giving your dog fun toys and treats such as Kong Toys or Busy Bones is a great way to keep them happy. You should also walk them on a regular basis so that they can get out any pent up energy. Bored dogs wont stay that way long; they will quickly entertain themselves by destroying your house.

 When teaching your dog not to chew on things that are not toys, you should try to facilitate success. It is also important that a dog who chews is protected from danger. Keep all items which can fit in your dogs mouth, like hair accessories or office supplies, away from your dogs reach.

 As with most things, and this goes with dog training as well, dont ever give up. Through constant and positive reinforcement, you will be able to train your dog to retain the behaviors you teach them. Keep in mind that training your dog is an on-going process, and just as important as providing him with food and shelter.

 For a happier and more content dog, be sure to provide it with things to do that will stimulate its thinking and keep its mind active. Giving your dog fun toys and treats such as Kong Toys or Busy Bones is a great way to keep them happy. You should also walk them on a regular basis so that they can get out any pent up energy. A dog that does not have anything to do may start chewing on your personal belongings.

 Do not allow your dog to stubbornly decide which commands he will pay attention to. Avoid trying to teach a command if you are not fully prepared to enforce a proper response.

 Give them chew toys for pain relief while teething, and keep everything else out of reach. Replace the item immediately with one of the dogs own chew toys. If the puppy is suffering any pain from teething, freeze a wet washcloth for him or her to chew on.

 When trying to train a puppy it is important to resist games such as tug-of-war. They encourage puppies to bite. Once your puppy is older and well trained, you can play rough games.

 Be sure to feed your dog healthy foods and treats. It is entirely up to you to provide a good diet for your pet. Not only is it unhealthy, it can affect the way they behave. Simply enhancing a dogs diet can make a big difference in its receptiveness to training.

 In order to be successful at dog training, you need to understand what motivates your dog. You are learning all aspects about your dog, his likes and dislikes, and what is effective and ineffective. He will expect love and positive reinforcement from you. He enjoys training and will respond to your leadership and patience. Happy dogs tend to perform better, and are easier to train successfully.

 Your dog will be easier to train if you are careful to avoid letting him learn bad habits to begin with. Its far easier to teach a puppy good habits than it is to deprogram bad habits. If you dont want your dog to be constantly begging for food when you are at the table, dont feed it food scraps in the first place.

 Ensure that your dog gets plenty of exercise and stimulation. Dogs require mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy. Dogs with no enthusiasm will be harder to train than active dogs. If you have a happy, exercised dog, they will listen better. A long walk or a brisk run are great ways to get rid of some of your dogs excess energy.

 When doing crate training, train your dog incrementally rather than trying to do it all at once. Allow them to feel comfortable in their crate by closing the door and feeding them treats while praising them. Start off only putting them inside for 10 seconds, and when they seem okay with that, slowly increase the time they are inside. If your puppy starts acting distressed about going into the create, you need to slow things down.

 The best time to start training a dog is when its a puppy. While it isnt essential, a young dog will be easier to train. If you start training your dog when he is young, he will be almost as well-behaved as a child.

 When you get your puppy, be sure to create a bond to him by helping him learn his name. Repeat his name regularly, so he will learn to come to you when he hears it. These should be the primary words your dog needs to learn. Spending a lot of time interacting and playing with your puppy is the best way to establish a bond of love and trust. This will make him easier to train later.

 It is important for dog owners to realize that training no longer has to be a battle. With patience and a little research, you can train your dog. Dogs can rise to the occasion and thrive with training from their owner.
