Dog Training Can Improve Your Pup's Confidence

Dog training can be hard. People believe that
some canines can be hard to train. The truth is,
all are trainable. The owner and the pet must
have a strong relationship, communication, and
understanding. The success of the training does
not depend on its breed, age, or size. Proper
guidance is what your pet needs for them to obey
your commands.

Just like a child, a dog must know why he is
being reprimanded. If he does something right,
praise must be given to him. The dog must
understand the connection between praise and
doing well. As part of controlling them, don't
let them jump on you whenever they feel like it.
Make them avoid biting or chewing on things even
if they are still small.

Every owner must practice no violence towards
their pups. Learn to control yourself for they
might fight back by jumping on you and worse,
bite you. Learn how to give corrections and
motivational praise. Their confidence will go
high and they will consider you as their master.

There are basic commands that must be mastered
so dogs can be considered as truly trained.
Commanding them to sit is important for the
program. You can do this before you open or
close the door; you can order them to by saying
either "sit" or "down". The "stop" word should
be practiced. This is done when you put food on
the floor, you can ask the pup to stay where he
is. Teach him to respond to the word "no". This
will minimize the trouble in your place.

Walking the dog at the park can be fun but they
must learn first to walk beside you on a loose
lead. Pulling ahead and lagging behind should
not be done. Remember that every correct
response deserves a reward. Giving them praise
once in a while will do them good.

Dog training will not be a success if you are
not patient. A canine's mind is not as quick as
a human's. What seems to be simple and easy for
people can be difficult for them. Kindness and a
soft approach are needed and can work better than
shouting and hitting them. Persistence is another
thing. Giving up easily will mean failure. You
have to show your pooch that you are striving to
teach them and eventually in the end they will
learn what is expected of them. The last is
consistency. If you have settled on a particular
reinforcement, you have to apply it consistently
so the pooch will not be confused for it will be
hard to train them again.
