If your puppy learns even basic commands found in free puppy training such as sit and stay, it can help on a day to day basis and may even save your puppy’s life.
If you learn how to train a puppy, your friend will begin to follow these commands in a dangerous situation, using them could avoid anything from a road accident to an aggressive dog incident.
There are so many topics in which your puppy needs to be trained. Basic obedience, toilet training, socialization, etc… It is important to prioritize and make time for all aspects of your pups training as it will pay off in the future.
For many people, potty training a puppy is the first on the list. Cleaning up your puppy’s accidents can be a huge wake up call and it’s the last thing most people think of when they are picking out their new best friend. Through the use of simple techniques and taking responsibility, training your friend will result in a well toilet trained dog that is happy to follow instructions.
Puppy Socializing and Training is a must for your new family member. By investing some time in puppy classes and introducing your puppy to a range of situations, you are likely to have a dog that is happy to play and interact with all humans and other dogs. Your pup will learn to be comfortable in what can be confronting situations.
Crate Training your pup so they are comfortable in a crate can be helpful when taking your loved one to the Vet. Being used to a crate will reduce their stressful hearts when staying at the Vet or during air travel if you plan to take your pooch on holidays. Plus they will have a sanctuary and quiet
place to relax during the days.
A few common problems can occur at this young stage of you puppy’s life. One is Puppy Humping, where your dog can become obsessed with you or your guest’s leg. This is not only irritating but embarrassing and important that you don’t allow your pup to make this an ongoing habit.
Aggressive Puppy Biting is another common occurrence. This usually starts out innocent enough but what begins as gentle play can become a rough, painful expression of dominance. Having your friend playing nice with other dogs and people is a necessity.
