Is Your Dog Misbehaving? These Tips Can Help

You love the dog and your stuff, but your dog
doesn't love your stuff. As far as your dog is
concerned, everything is a potential toy until he
is told otherwise. In this article, you'll find
great tips and tricks to help keep your dog from
chewing on your possessions.

Make sure to let your pet know a crate is their
home initially. All meals and water bowls should
be placed within the crate. Thus, they will
associate a good thing like yummy food with the
crate.

When house training your pup, you should adhere
to a regular schedule of feeding and elimination.
This will give you the opportunity to understand
when your dog needs to go to the bathroom. Being
consistent will teach the dog to hold it until it
is time to go outside.

A dog will obsess about one thing until you
divert its attention. If you get your dog to
focus on you, it will help his behavior.

Don't use things like shock collars. They don't
often work well and cost more than training
methods which are conventional. Plus, using shock
collars could discourage your dog in having good
behavior. In short, using techniques like this
could have negative effects.

Only train your pet with positive reinforcement
methods. Praise your dog when he deserves it, and
give him treats to show that you are pleased.
Don't ever hit your dog or yell at them! This
teaches your dog nothing and will just show him
that you do not know how to train him. Be
positive, firm and consistent to get great
results while you train your dog.

To achieve the best results when housebreaking a
pet, be aware of the food and water he consumes.
To keep your pet regular, feed him quality food a
couple of times daily at the same hour. If you
know when the puppy eats, you will be able to
better predict when to take him out. This means
fewer accidents!

You can keep a dog from barking by teaching it an
order that means they should be silent. When he
barks, show him his favorite treat, and repeat
the command. "Quiet" works well. You can then
give it the treat. Repetition will ensure the
dogs learns that quiet is a good thing.

Take note of the tone of your voice as you
discipline your pet. Dogs are great at
understanding how their trainer feels. It is okay
to be stern when disciplining your dog.

A key part of dog training is to start early. It
is easier to teach a dog good habits right from
the start, rather than trying to break bad habits
that have already been learned. If your goal is
to keep the dog from begging for table scraps, it
is advisable to never give him any table scraps
to begin with.

Keep your dog's leash loose when training him.
Dogs love exploring when they get to walk.
Because they are so eager, they often pull on the
leash. If you know what you are doing then you
will train them to walk on a leash with slack.

You should have discovered some training your dog
techniques here that you might not have known
about. Implement the information provided here as
appropriate to your own unique situation. There
is not a single doubt that your new pup or
faithful dog has captured your heart. Training is
the best way to reach success. Therefore, ensure
that you properly train your dog. Welcome to life
