One of the most exciting events you can experience is the addition of a new puppy to your family. Their undying dedication, unconditional love and even their silly puppy antics are just too much to resist. Until the puppy isnt new anymore that is. Puppies tend to chew on everything except their collection of chew toys. Puppies seem to mimic toddlers, ignoring the word NO. But worst of all, puppies arent biased, and will relieve themselves just about anywhere they choose, including your new carpeting. This is where a new puppy owner begins to ask questions. What should we do? How can we stop this behavior before it gets out of hand? Below are some puppy training tips to help you get everything under control before it gets out of hand. Just as we enjoy hearing Good job or Wow! This is great! occasionally, puppies will also respond positively to praise. There are many puppy owners who try to succeed in training without the use of positive reinforcement. Supplying your new puppy with rewards and a pat on the head will provide much better results than shouting commands and swatting at your puppy. Any pet owner attempting to teach their furry friend through fear or negative consequences will find themselves with a scared and anxious pet. However, for those pet owners who choose to reward their puppy for proper behavior, theyll have a pet more willing to following commands in order to receive rewards and praise again. This positive reinforcement is possibly the most vital tip to remember as you begin, and continue training your puppy. Consistency makes your puppy feel secure in his environment. This feeling of security will not only enable you to easily teach them the rules, but they will also feel more comfortable in their new surroundings of your home. But perhaps the most important first step with your puppy is to show him where his place is among the ranks of the family. Its important to establish your role as the leader of the pack quickly. This means demonstrating that you are the master by being the one to feed and train them, feed them, place them in their crate or cage when needed and even take them outside. Its vital that training start from the moment you bring your new puppy home. Determine ahead of time such things as whether or not hell be allowed on the bed, couch, in certain rooms and other similar rules. If you dont ever want him jumping up on your bed for a morning snuggle, its very important not to let it happen in the first place. Start training right away, and no matter how cute Fido is, make sure the rules stick! Another important aspect of puppy training is making sure they are socialized. Start early by introducing them not only to other people in your neighborhood, but also to other dogs. This will result in your puppy knowing that although there are distractions, he still needs to obey. It will also make them feel safe in unfamiliar surroundings. In order for training to be successful, it takes patience, consistency, a plan and of course love and appreciation from you. It will be easier some days than others, but by remaining devoted to the time it takes to implement these tips youll find joy in having an obedient pet that is properly trained and well behaved.About the Author:
