Here is just a basic outline of what you should expect to do when you are trying
to teach obedience for dogs.
Here is just a basic outline of what you should expect
to do when you are trying to teach obedience for dogs.
First, it is important that your obedience training
sessions be short. Your dog will be bored and you'll be bored if you try to make the sessions too long, and
not much will be accomplished.
Making the training part of your routine will keep the training meaningful to your
dog. As you're moving around your home and your puppy is following along, make sure they have something to do,
as well.
Walking from your bedroom to the bathroom, keep your
dog on his toes (not literally of course). While walking, tell him to "sit".
While you are making your coffee in the morning, tell
him to "heal". make it a daily routine. Offering a reward is also essential in the proper training of a dog,
as it speeds up the learning process.
You will want to create situations in which your dog
will have the opportunity to behave properly and win a reward. Praise is also a form of reward so you should
lavish it on your dog whenever he behaves correctly.
Don't ignore your dog when he behaves the way you want
him to. Let him know when he's a good dog, just as you let him know when he's been a bad
dog.
Good behavior deserves just as much attention as bad
behavior. Use the carrot and the stick equally and you will have better results training your
dog.
It is a mistake to repeat the same negative commands
to your dog, if he won't listen the last time any more than he did the first. He will just think you are
barking at him and he might just bark back, but he won't obey.
It is important to praise your dog for good behavior
as well as try to correct him of the bad behavior. If you catch your dog in the act of committing a bad
behavior then reprimand him immediately. If he obeys, you can reward him.
If he does not obey, it may be best to just ignore
him, as the time to strike has passed.
