Dogs are lovable animals. They are playful, obedient, and there for you on any occasion. Dogs make excellent pets as they are wonderful companions for anyone of any age. While dogs are great, they do require a bit of training. The tips in this article should help you with canine training.
Only correct your puppy's mistakes as you witness them. Dogs don't understand anything that isn't in the "here and now." So trying to correct a puppy's mistake after the fact will only have a negative effect.
You will want to use your pet's name to get his or her attention. Use your dog's name when calling to go for a walk, for meal times, and for play. This will teach your dog to pay attention when you say their name. Never punish a dog for coming to you when you call them.
Make sure not to accidentally reward a dog for bad behavior. For example, if you let your dog into the yard when he barks, you're rewarding him by letting him outside for doing something you'd rather he didn't. Instead make sure only to let the dog outside when he quietly waits by the door, reinforcing good behavior.
You should call your pet by name at least 10 times a day. You can practice using their name when you give them treats and food. This will help them to get used to their name. Don't punish your pet at anytime for coming to you when you call their name.
A well-trained dog is a joy to own and a lifelong companion. Every thoughtful dog owner understands that the responsibility of training their dog carries a lot of potential benefits. There is no reason not to seek out assistance in order to get the most out of training your dog. Putting together an effective, fun training program will make you and your pet that much happier with each other.
