5 Key Dog Training Tips

                Dogs make a wonderful pet, but sometimes they have issues that can make an owner feel like pulling their hair out, such as a puppy who is not understanding the concept of potty training or an older dog who snaps at humans and is aggressive to other dogs.

                 These dogs can be helped with effective dog training techniques. Don't be too harsh on your dog, they are often doing what comes naturally. With some guidance and good training you can have the dog you want.

Try these 5 dog training tips and hopefully you will see a difference.

1. Your Dog Requires Your Patience

                  Patience is not always easy, but if you want your dog to learn and change you need to apply this first tip. Your dog needs to have time to absorb and become comfortable with the changes that are been made in its daily life. Becoming impatient with your dog will not help anything.

2. Show Consistency

                  Consistency is vital, as is time if you want your dog to learn and learn quickly. Working with your dog one day, and then taking a few days away from its training will do nothing for the dog, everything will be forgotten.

                  Have you 15 minutes to 30 minutes a day available in your diary? That's what your puppy or dog will need as a regular commitment whilst undergoing training. This will allow you to not only train them on something specific, but also introduce new and enjoyable tricks.

3. Be Positive

                  Negativity does nothing for you or your dog, you will get more and more frustrated and your dog will feel discouraged. Have faith in your dog and get behind it all the way when its trying to succeed in the training you have applied and your support will pay off with encouraging results.

4. Whats The Best Training For Your Dogs Needs?

                  There are no shortage of various guides and techniques to guide you in the right direction with your dogs training. Possibly through trial and error you will soon discover that not all training methods work with your dog. You need to take a different approach and search for the correct training technique that will work with your dog.

5. Maintain Fun In Your Training

                 The last tip I can provide is for your dog training to be fun for both you and your dog. Your dogs training time affords the opportunity to bond with your dog, as this is time specifically allocated for them.

                 Maintain your training at 15 minutes to 30 minutes each and every day and your dog will enjoy what it is been taught.Integrate toys into the dog training session and it will make learning fun.
