Starting a new training regiment or class for your four legged friend? This article will help you prepare yourself and your canine friend before getting started.
Steps
- Use a canine training manual. These are priceless when training new dogs and will prevent you from getting accustomed to bad training habits like negative reinforcement.
- Understand that your dog is not a human. He or she will not always understand what you mean. Do not get frustrated with your dog because then your dog will become much less motivated to partake in training.
- Spend quality time with your four legged friend. Know that Rome was not built in a day and that it is all about taking small steps and building on each positive result. Study your dog's obedience manual.
- Introduce practicing into your dog's schedule with you. For example, you can practice the "sit" command while making your morning coffee.
- Reward your dog when he makes a step in the right direction. Dogs learn best with positive reinforcement.
Tips
- Buy dog treats to aid with your dog's training.
- Always use a cheerful, upbeat voice when training your dog. Never use a harsh tone.
Warnings
- Don't get frustrated if Fido doesn't get it right the first time.
