Thats when you really need to start sorting out the behaviour.I will help you with your dog training problems

You decide you need to train the dog, but he just will not do what you tell him. You try harder getting more and more frustrated all the time. That darling dog becomes a real pain.

Can you imagine having your dog do everything you tell him to do??

Wouldn't you love it if you could not only teach him fast to sit stay and fetch, but you could teach him other tricks as well???

What if he always came when you called him??

What if you could train him fast?

Puppy Training

Although it is possible to send a dog to a training school, the owner must learn what the dog has learned and how to use and reinforce the techniques.

Owners and dogs who attend class together have an opportunity to learn more about each other and how to work together under a trainer's guidance.

Training is most effective if everyone who handles the dog takes part in the training to ensure consistent commands, methods, and enforcement.

Classes also help socialize a dog to other people and dogs. Training classes are offered by many kennels, pet stores, and independent trainers.

Formal training in classes is not always available until the puppy has completed all its vaccinations around 4 months of age; however, some trainers offer puppy socialization classes in which puppies can enroll immediately after being placed in their permanent homes as long as disease risk is minimal and puppies have received initial vaccinations.

In most cases, basic training classes accept only puppies who are at least 3 to 6 months old.

A puppy requires discipline, consistency, and the patience of its owner. Owners should take time to train their puppies and take steps to make their home safe.

The puppy training phase is integral in raising a healthy and happy dog and keeping a safe and fun home environment.

Puppies need consistency more than anything else.

A stable diet and clear expectations will help the puppy learn what it is expected.

Dogs are expressive and may communicate needs by biting, whining, and getting fidgety.

The owner's response may contribute to a healthy, obedient puppy.

An important principle is that the best way to change a puppy's behavior is to modify one's own conduct.

Giving a puppy toys that are similar to household items he likes to chew may facilitate easier puppy training.

An integral puppy training issue is house training.

Various methods of house training will work although the key is to be consistent. With regularly enforced rules, litter box, crate, or paper training can be successful.

Dog Obedience

Obedience is about you having a relationship with your dog and the dog responding to you. It doesn't matter if the dog trainer can train your dog; what matters is that the dog responds to you.

Obedience training is very helpful for dogs that like to jump up; when your dog wants to jump up, have him sit instead. Then your can reward him with praise and attention for sitting instead of jumping up.

Many people think that obedience training is something that is done to a dog to make it perform some artificial activity on command, but that is not true.

Obedience is a part of the social setting defined for your dog in your home. Changes in the setting and how the dog perceives his pack position brings about desired behavior changes and safety for your family

Training Your Dog

Dog training is more than just party tricks, it is essential to keep your dog safe. Your little (or big) fur ball will learn to wait, sit, stay, lay down, come heel, leave it and drop it just because you said so!

Dog training is an Art not a science, many trainers and facilities develop a specific training method.

Dogs will always be dogs and humans will continually try to make their dog into a furry person.

Dog training is a time you can establish a bond of love and trust between you and your new companion.

Dog training is the responsibility that YOU signed on for when you brought your dog through your front door for the first time. The whole dog training experience can be pleasant for BOTH you and your dog.

Basic Training

Most dogs, no matter their eventual advanced training or intended purpose, live with people who want them to behave in a way that makes them pleasant to be around, keeps them safe, and provides for the safety of other people and pets.

Dogs do not figure out basic obedience on their own; they must be trained.

The hardest part of training is communicating with the dog in a humane way that he understands.

However, the underlying principle of all communication is simple: reward desired behavior while ignoring or correcting undesired behavior.

Basic pet obedience training usually consists of 5 behaviors:

* Sit
* Down
* Stay
* Recall ("come" or "here")
* Close (or loose-leash walking)

The recall command is arguably the most important of all training commands.

It is critical to never punish a dog if they respond to a recall.

Punishing a dog upon recall quickly teaches the dog that if he returns he will be punished.

If the dog requires a correction, the handler should go to the dog - the dog should not be asked to come and then be punished.

The dog will attribute the punishment to whatever behavior he was doing directly before receiving it, and if that behavior was responding to a recall, then the handler will inadvertently have taught the dog to run away from the recall command.

"Corrections" should never include harmful physical force or violence. Using force while training is controversial and should not be taken lightly, because even if it ends the behavior, when applied inappropriately with some dogs it may lead to a loss of drive (enthusiasm for the given task), stress, and in some cases even aggression.

A handler may decide to use force, however the standard used by most trainers is the minimum amount necessary to inhibit the unwanted behavior.

Recommended Training Methods

The following are recommended principles to achieve successful dog training.

* All dog training must be founded upon educating the dog to develop instincts and extinguish accidental and acquired habits.
* Situations and contacts must be viewed from the dog's reactions and abilities, and not the human's.
* The dog should not be fooled or teased.
* Commands should be given using consistent words and with the same tone of voice and speed of speaking.
* Anticipate the dog's actions. Think ahead of time and give your command before the dog acts or moves.
* Reward or punishment should follow quickly after every act. To punish a dog at any other time than instantly after the wrong act is cruelty rather than a part of training, for the dog does not connect the punishment to the act.
* Teach one specific thing at a time. This does not mean that a training period cannot include a half-dozen different tasks.
* Give the dog a moment to carry out your command. Demanding instant obedience confuses the dog.
* Have patience.
* Develop a bond. All future training depends upon this.
* Remember that a dog cannot ask questions, neither can it understand all you say. It knows only the words, the commands and the names you teach it.
* The success of a handler depends on being able to make a dog understand what it has to do.
* Always use kindness.
* Be decisive, firm, and most of all, be sure that you know exactly what you want and how it should be done.
* Never try to teach a dog anything until you yourself have a thorough knowledge of how to teach it, and a clear mental picture of each stage.
* As far as possible, always have your dog with you. You cannot train it all the time, but it will become accustomed to your actions, words, and surroundings which will help to make the training easier.
* Always finish a training session on a positive note. Never leave off if the dog has done something wrong.
* Never put your dog away for the night with a cross word.
* Do not punish the dog while you are angry or lack control of yourself.
* Do not lose your temper while training the dog. If you do, the dog will lose some of its respect for you.
* Do not chase the dog to catch it; it must come to you or follow after you.
* Do not coax the dog to you and then turn upon it with punishment.
* Do not nag the dog; do not give orders to it constantly; do not pester it.
* Do not punish the dog for failure to obey unless you are certain that it understood fully what you commanded.
* Do not praise the dog for doing a certain act, then at a later time, scold it for doing the same act.
* Do not permit anyone to give commands to the dog while you are training it.
