Important Dog Training Via A Collection Of Easy Procedures

How does your dog sit when you tell him to and mine doesn't

? How can your dog heel to you like that? Now he comes running with a simple command? If that's true, then it will be worth your while to go through the trouble of putting your dog through some simple dog training. It is important that you begin training your dog as soon as you can while it is still a puppy, because this will enable you to mold the behavior that you want from your dog for many years to come.

The most basic of dog training is to get your dog to sit and come. If he's going to learn then he needs to understand what these commands mean. These commands are used for various different reasons, if you are in competition, if your dog jumps making him sit will immediately get him off and "come" is the all important one. If you take your dog for a walk, you let him of the leash and you expect him to come back to you, not run around the park with you chasing after him shouting at him to "get here right this instance". That would mean complete and utter embarrassment!

Teaching your dog to come to you is vital, especially when distractions abound. The simplest way to get him to come is have a toy in one hand and a treat in the other, when you are in the house simply walk away from him, hold out the toy and excitingly call him to you, when he comes over give him a treat, always use the command for come that you are going to use in the future. This is a great way for him to learn, but take frequent breaks and always reward him with treats!

Getting him to sit could be a slight bit harder but again only requires basic dog training. When you have mastered the come command call him to you, place your hand on the end of his back and say "sit" while gently pushing down on his backside, when he sits his bottom down give him a treat and a lot of praise. If you want him to sit a little longer, just take your time bending over to give him his treat.

Basic dog training is simple and very effective. You and your dog should enjoy it and keep it quick, five minutes a day or so should be enough. Don't forget to compensate your dog- and even yourself for all the hard training.
