Strategies To Help Make Maltese Training Easy For You and Your Pet

Although this breed seems easy to handle
considering their small size, providing them
with maltese training can be challenging
specifically to new pet owners. New or
prospective owners ought to be aware that like
most dogs under the toy group, maltese dogs have
extremely lively and playful temperament thus
making them tough to handle. However, that fact
is not supposed to discourage you from obtaining
a new puppy or adopting one from the local
maltese rescue center. There are numerous ways
to get positive training outcome only if you are
responsible and resourceful enough to uncover
them.

Below are a few techniques to make training
easy for you and your four-legged bundle of joy:

1. Whether you're adopting a grown dog or
getting a pup that is not less than eight weeks
old, start maltese training immediately after
your new pet arrives home. Training doesn't
necessarily have to include commands or other
advanced tricks. The most important thing during
this stage is the opportunity to expose your pet
to things, places and scenarios of everyday
life. A pet that is appropriately socialized is
less likely to develop bad habits at the same
time easier to train compared to those that are
not socialized.

2. Dogs learn faster if you carry out things on
regular basis. Taking a walk or exercising him,
feeding and toilet breaks ought to occur at
almost the same time daily to help him develop a
routine.

3. Be consistent whether with your commands or
the training techniques you are using. If you
are using the command "come" presently, be sure
to use the same command in the next days to
avoid confusion. The commands "come here" or
"come here boy" may mean different to him. The
same is true with maltese training methods. When
addressing his jumping habits, train him to do so
regardless of the situation. He'll not know the
contrast between your work clothes and pajamas
so allowing him to jump on you when you're
sporting your pajamas and prohibiting him from
doing so when you are wearing your finest suit
will potentially induce confusion.

4. Though they're renowned for their
intelligence, it is best to deal with one
command at a time during maltese training. If he
has perfected the command you're teaching him,
that's the time and energy to continue with the
next command.

5. Recognize and reward good behavior. One
method to let your pet know that you are happy
with what he did is to give him rewards. It
could be his favorite treat, toy, time to play
or praise. However, it is important to regulate
using treats to prevent him from becoming
treat-dependent.
