Dog Training Tips You Can Use To Teach Your Dog
Regardless of the age of your dog it is never to late to
train them. However, when possible, you should begin
training a puppy at 6 to 8 weeks old. In this article we
will look at dog training tips that you can use to train
your dog or puppy. First of all positive reinforcement is
the best way to train your dog. Positive training leads to
your dog wanting to please you and it will learn a lot
faster. Dogs are like children in that they want to please
you, but they need to be taught how. As soon as they know
how to do this they will feel a part of your family.

By rewarding your dog with positive praise, and a treat,
they will learn to listen to the command you are trying to
teach. Each treat could be a piece of small chicken, or a
tiny treat the size of a dime.

You do not want your dog eating off your table so teach
them to lay down in their bed when it is time to sit down
at the table to eat. Dogs need to only eat their own dog
food.

When teaching your dog to stay, go down, and sit, you want
to use a lower firm voice. But for the come and heel
command do this in a friendly voice. Just make sure that
all are firm but friendly commands. By using a different
voice they will know you are teaching them something.

It used to be thought when a dog had an accident you rubbed
their nose in it or you hit their nose with a newspaper. Do
not do this because it is wrong. When you learn something
you want positive praise and so does your dog. When your
dog has an accident take it outside and show them were they
should go.

The wrong way to train your dog is to punish them. You will
scare them and they will be afraid of you and not learn
what you are trying to teach them. To help your dog learn
keep training them everyday day and give those little
treats.

When your dog follows a command make sure you use positive
praise and a treat so they know you are watching them and
that you are proud of them. Hopefully you can use these dog
training tips to teach your do what you want it to do.
