Dog trainingIf you want your pet to be obedient, it is very important to begin dog training immediately. This can be done by a professional or through your own means. There are two main areas of dog training : obedience and behavioural.
Obedience training sessions are designed to be regular but short in duration to prevent boredom from setting in. It involves the association of a reward for succeeding in a particular task such as accurately following commands like sitting or staying. Saying the dogs name prior to giving a command like sit, stay, heal or come is also a good idea and will help to get its attention.
Behavioural training is more geared towards correcting poor behaviour habits that the dog may have developed. These habits may include climbing on furniture, jumping and chasing things. |
