subject: Puppy Obedience Training - The Key For Healthy Habits [print this page] To make your dog calmer and smart, you have to provide dog obedience training. Puppies do not have inborn manners like human being. One should train them in correct time.
One must understand the nature of the dog, before starting to train it. From the very moment of its birth, puppies are willing to learn new things.
They should be disciplined properly with exercise and love as soon you bring it to your house.
If you want your puppy to listen and obey you, you must make them realize through good obedience training that you are its master and it ought to obey its master's commands.
When your dog shows signs of positive activities and obeys your orders, offer it some reward, so that it will learn to obey you with more willingness.
You must enforce the rules strictly when it was still a puppy. Also you must teach its boundaries and make it realize not to cross them.
These rules ought not to be crossed even when it is excited. Food, walk, sport, sleep etc. should be done as per the schedule.
Chewing furniture, jumping at the people, barking without any reason and digging the ground should not be allowed. Toilet training, sleeping and eating training should be included in the training process.
Such training should be given with concentration to avoid bad habits. A leash and a collar is ideal to avoid unnecessary happenings when there is nobody in the house and when taking the dog for a walking.
To meet different people and other species may be allowed under supervision. Confining the dog to remote places may make it bark and show aggression, anxiety and fear.
Give your dogs some dog toys like Dog leashes, Rope Dog Toys, Vinyl Dog Toys, Fleece Dog Toys, Canvas Dog Toys, Puppy Treats, and Frisbees so that they play with them and forget the habit of biting.
Choose such toys that your dog would love to eat for training it, like soft ball, squeaky toys, and fleece toys. These toys would interest your dog.
Toys like nylon bone, chewy rope, chewy tire and tennis ball etc. will help you to train your dog to avoid the habit of chewing furniture.
Don't give vent for all its desires. But try to reward it when it exhibits favorable and desired attitude.
Don't be harsh or severe when training your dog. Careful watching of their behavior will make us not to punish without reasons.
If you train your dog well and teach it to be obedient, then it will know its boundaries and learn to be within it.
