How to train my dog
Take a look at your dog for a moment. That creature that you are locking stares with is a very special kind of creature. It’s your friend, your ally and in some cases, your protector. It is your job to train it.
Your dog will learn from you and in the process, create a long and lasting bond that will last ages. But like children growing-up, it must learn its manners, know its place and be proper. Being able to train a dog varies from breed and the patience of the owner, there are some helpful tips out there that can better help you get started at training your dog.
Most dog trainers will tell you that training starts the moment the dog recognizes you as its master. You see, long before dogs were domesticated into modern society, they lived in packs. These packs each had an alpha male, a leader that they banded together to follow. To do this, be assertive to your dog and create a boundary that it restricts itself to.
If you want to train your dog properly, set its boundaries. It mustn’t intrude your bedroom, or rip apart your shoes only because it wants to have fun. Warn it, however, if it continues to become a repeat offender, punish your dog accordingly – but don’t be cruel. It may have soiled your carpet – but it’s a creature with feelings and emotions nonetheless!
Training a dog is can be both easy and hard; depending on your bond with the dog and the patience you’re willing to invest to train it properly. Perhaps an effective command to have it understand is the word “No”, though not exactly a command, it helps iron out the pet’s bad behaviors. If the dog likes drinking the toilet, drag him out gently until it calms down and say “no”. Once it recognizes that what it’s doing is a wrong action, it will avoid doing it before it becomes a serious habit.
