Dog Puppy Training
A new puppy in the home excites everyone especially children but
make sure you got the puppy for a good reason and not just on a
spur of the moment feeling. Like they say dogs are for life not
just for Christmas. A puppy can bring lots of happy memories and
times but they have a lot of training and work involved to, they
are not all fun and no work!
A puppy's temperament depends on where the puppy has been
brought up and what type of breed he is. German shepherds,
Rottweilers, bull dogs and boxers are all guard type dogs so
tend to be very loving and protective. Border and bearded
collies tend to be herding dogs and reared on farms and tend to
be quite enthusiastic and never sit still (be aware because they
are reared on a farm they may be a little bit nervous around
modern day technologies, such as bridges, loud noises etc).
Labradors, gun dogs and pointer are all hunting dogs so expect
them to be full of energy and laughable moments. Of course these
are just general expectations every dog has its day...and its
personality!
Puppy dog training is something that can be achieved in a matter
of weeks depending how much time and attention you spend on it.
You don't need to train for hours and hours a day, a few minutes
several times a day is all it takes. The first thing you need to
train your new puppy in is obedience, commands like sit, come,
heel, stay and fetch are basic enough for them to learn. As they
get older you can incorporate commands like paw, roll over and
play dead! Training a young puppy is not as hard as you may
think as they are like a blank sheet of paper waiting to be
written on. The way and things that that they are taught will
stick to them and will influence them later on in life, although
training isn't forever so you need spend a few minutes every day
just to keep reminding them what to do.
There are not so nice consequences involved when puppies aren't
trained, for a start your house will constantly be a toiler
ground for them and your furniture will have massive holes in
it. Puppies are like babies and need to be taught the difference
between right and wrong, to do this you need some puppy dog
training!
Many handlers experienced or in-experienced are turning towards
training products and aids but training can be done without
these methods. Just a bit of good old hard work! A puppy may
take several months to training but when it is complete the
rewards will be well worth it, but don't forget to top up on
your training for several minutes each day or your dog will
slowly forget and you'll have to start all over again, with an
even bigger task, training an older dog!
