You may have thought you were going to be bringing a nice calm dog to your house, though in reality your dog is more like a wild, hyper animal! Luckily, it just takes some elementary dog training to help your dog understand what sort of behavior is expected.
Use control when rewarding good behavior during dog training. Giving a reward for an appropriate behavior is correct, but do it quickly and move on. If you are overly excited, the dog will become that way too. Try to stay as calm as possible during your dog training session.
Keep your dog calm when you enter the room. Play time needs to be a distinctive time you initiate. Don’t acknowledge your dog when you enter the room. By doing this, you will be able to create a controlled environment in which you determine when and how play time begins.
Don’t reinforce your dog’s negative behavior by accident. Thus, you must not reward the dog if it does something you are working to stop. If you wish to keep your dog from begging for table scraps, don’t encourage him by slipping him a morsel one night or allowing others to do so.
You must begin your relationship with the dog as the boss for any training to be effective. You have to show your dog that you are in control or he will not obey or respect you. Demonstrate your position of authority to your dog by leading the way whenever the two of you are walking.
Good behavior means rewards! When your dog obeys your command, try to keep them calm as you give them their reward. You might be happy about the progress your dog has made but you need to quell your excitment. Remain calm, expect the dog to be calm and provide appropriate rewards.
Even if your dog is extremely unruly at the moment, do not despair. The majority of dogs can be effectively trained with the right techniques and some perseverance. After reading this article, you should be able to make training your dog the easiest experience possible.
