Dog Training Tips - Vital Tips For Training Your Dog

January 21st, 2010

Very few people are a natural at training their dog. We don't all instantly understand what it takes to teach a dog to obey us. However it is vital that we don find this information - because an untrained dog can be a real problem.

Untrained dogs can be aggressive as they try to challenge your leadership, they can rebel and cause problems, such dogs can not be trusted around children and people visiting the home. Untrained dogs, quite simply, need training. Which is why we put together these dog training tips for you.

Dog Training Tips

· Always reward your dog for good work. By giving the dog praise and treats you are positively reinforcing their good behaviour and encouraging them to do more of it.

· It takes a dog time to learn what a command means - so always try to be consistent in your command giving.

· Consistency is also vital when you are choosing what to reward and punish for - dogs are easily confused by contrary commands and rewards so make sure you are consistent.

· The person you want the dog to see as the master should always be the one doing the obedience training.

· When your dog has mastered a command try testing them in another situation. A dog might grasp it in the garden with just the two of you but they need to do it when it is contrary to what they want to do too.

· Dogs don't manage to understand what they did before, so punishing them for something you didn't catch them doing will just confuse them.

Obviously there are many more dog training tips than that, but these should give you a good grounding in what it takes to train a dog.
