How To Have A Happy, Well Behaved Dog

Dog training can be frustrating and difficult sometimes, especially when you are just beginning. However, by using the advice found here you will discover how to improve your relationship with your pet and build a stronger understanding of your animal’s needs as well as yours.

Rewarding your dog properly and generously is important when it comes to training them. Quantity and timing are important when it comes to rewards. Make sure to give your dog the treats at the proper time, to encourage good behavior.

Reward good behavior during training with control. When your dog obeys your command, try to keep them calm as you give them their reward. If you get excited, the dog will become excited and everything will be out of control. Be calm and be sure to reward appropriately.

Keep your dogs tied at a safe distance from each other. The dogs chains could get tangled up and cause harm to the dogs as they struggle to get free. If one dog happens to be much larger than the other, the small dog could get tangled to the point that it could choke to death.

Be sure to keep your treats close by when you’re training your dog. It is important for your pet to understand that you have certain expectations, what those expectations are, and that he will be rewarded for complying. This is a great way to make certain the dog grasps what is right and what is wrong.

It is not difficult to teach a dog how to roll over, and having some treats on hand makes it easier. Start by commanding the animal to lie down. Then, use the treat to draw his head from one side to the other. This will cause your dog to use their nose to follow the treat. As a result, your dog will roll over. Upon seeing him roll over, issue the command. You can then repeat the command to the point where he rolls over without the added incentive of a treat. It will probably take multiple attempts, but you will be the talk of the town when the trick is learned.

Now that you have read the tips above, training your dog will be much easier. Your dog will soon be a sweet, obedient part of the family. Use the advice you learned now and get started on a better relationship with your dog.
