Useful Dog Training Tips to Help Dogs Understand and Obey Commands - Points for House Training for Pups

Having a dog as a pet in the house brings joy in more than one way. Dogs are amongst the most common pets due to their many qualities, their loving nature being one of them! Imagine the joy of a cute, cuddly puppy, nuzzling a wet nose against your body! These cuddly puppies are completely dependent on their owners once they are separated from their mommies! Whilst they whine and cry, many new owners of such puppies are often perplexed about handling young pups. Besides, managing a cute but moody pup around the house spells nothing but trouble! Therefore, dog training should begin as early as possible. Puppies when trained early on, can turn out to be the most obedient and loving dogs ever. So, before you grumble and mumble when your little pup chews your slippers or barks for no reason, take a look at these important dog training tips to learn some vital points for house training for pups.

Dog Training Tips: House Training a Puppy

House training for a pup is comparatively easier than training adult dogs. The first thing you need to do is keep aside time for your pup. Crate training is often the basic method of making the pup get used to the indoors and outdoors. You can begin by placing the pup in the crate for short periods during the day. If the pup wishes to defecate, you can take it outdoors in the yard. Teach your pup to use the yard or a sand box (in case you don't have a yard). For this, you will need to use different tonal variations in your voice. If the pup follows the right method, shower it with praise and love. If it doesn't, then you need to make your voice as stern as possible. A loving 'good doggie' or a stern 'bad doggie' can help it to understand your commands. When you see the dog turning around in circles, sniffing at a spot, you need to take it as a signal that it needs to urinate or defecate. Be kind and help it to identify a suitable area.

Some pups are an overexcited lot! This is reflected in the way they jump and lunge at a person. Small-sized pups may not really harm a person. However, a large-sized pup can injure a person, unknowingly. Here's a simple tip for this situation. Ignore! Turn away from the pup. Ignoring the habit rather than screaming a 'no' will help you to make it understand. If it does, don't forget to reward the pup with a loving hug or praise. This is when you can experiment with commands such as 'sit' or 'stay'. Gradually, the pup will be well-behaved, in the presence of friends and guests.

You need to make your pup understand that certain kinds of behavior are unacceptable. Constant communication with your pup will help control behaviors such as excessive barking. We come back to the same solution in this case, which is to disregard the behavior of the pup. Shouting or even hugging your pup when it is barking its head off gives a wrong signal. Instead, opt to leave the room or hide somewhere. Repeat this process over and over again till your pup realizes this behavior is totally unacceptable.

Meal times should revolve around making the pup understand that the food given, also needs to be eaten. Mark a separate area where your pup can have its daily meal. You can even hand-feed the pup, when it turns moody. Always avoid overfeeding your pup. A few doggie treats can be given even during the day, when it displays good behavior.

Training on a leash can be a fun activity. Begin by training it around the house. Avoid hurting the pup by pulling the leash too hard. Be good to your pup, and it will love to follow you around the house. This habit will help the pup understand your commands, when you take it for a stroll outside.

Some understanding combined with love and care will make the house training for your pup an enjoyable activity. Treat it lovingly, like a child and you will be surprised with the results. Your pup is one of the most loyal friends you can ever have!

tips on dog training?

my dog will do dozens of tricks on command, she never jumps, she never bites, and she usually listens, but if there's a coyote outside or another dog or person and she isn't on a leash she will not come when called, she just keeps going. ive seen people like victoria stilwell and cesar millan get dogs to return in mid charge, how can i get my dog to that point? she's a 5 year old golden retriever-lab mix and it's not like she doesn't respect me, she just sees offleash as meaning free time, she knows heel but it doesn't matter what i say, once she decides to go after something it's done. she'd been hurt by other dogs before after running to greet them and i'm genuinly concerned that the next time she gets out im going to be taking her to the vet with serious wounds


One of the easiest ways is to put her on a long line, like a washing line and let it trail, unclip her lead so she thinks she is free and tell her free, you need to practice this so do it in an area where she can't go too far and there are not any or many distractions and no trees or anything the line could get caught up on until you get your recall 100% , when she starts to go away from you say nothing, don't look at her, just go and stand on the line nearest to you, you now have control, that is when you call her, lift the line and gently pull her as you call her name as soon as she is near you, praise her and tell her free letting the line trail again, you need to do this numerous times, each time she comes back, lots of praise then free.............dogs will often not come back as you are stressed ( as they are running off) you are possibly chasing after them, so that makes them feel comfortable as you are keeping within their working distance..instead of running off the other way and they get told off when they eventually do come back or you get them, they are put on a lead and it is the end of their free time...........so all very logical in dogs eyes.
You will find very quickly you don't need to pull the line to you for her to come, however keep it on her as it is easier to get control once there is distraction, which is what you then want to practice...the same method with distraction and you will keep calmer as you know you can get control quickly...the key is not to speak until you are standing on the line....there are lots of other ways however this is simple and works well.

What you see on TV from these TV trainers is a tiny part of the training dogs need and what is done by trainers who work on the shows with the dogs and sort out the dogs issues ( and the peoples issues) before the film is spliced...so the 15 minutes of training they do looks impressive, however it is not the full story, it is TV, they do not show the amount of work required or the trainers that do that work.
