Dog training for proper behaviors

In: More About Dogs

26 Sep 2009

The best time to teach your dog how to behave is when it is a pup. It is a priority when the dog is young to teach it proper manners. Training a puppy is to teach it what is considered proper behavior and what is not.

The earlier you learn how to train your dog, the better the chances that your dog will understand and obey. They can learn relatively fast. When you interact with your dog, you are showing your dog something, so teaching the right manners is up to you.

Not only is training beneficial to the dog, it is also helpful to people. A canine that is not trained can be more dangerous than one that is trained. You are responsible for this.

It has been said that dogs are mans best friend and this friendship goes back many hundreds of years as dogs have been domesticated for a very long time. They have been trained probably earlier than any other animal.

How dogs act in the wild is necessary to understand when dealing with your dog. Animals have a lead animal when in packs. This main dog or Alpha dog provides guidance to the other dogs in hunting and survival areas for the pack.

In training for dogs, you are the dogs pack leader. You will be the “Alpha Dog”. Your dog should perceive you as the leader of its pack in order to gain its respect. When you gain this respect and the dog places his trust in you, that is when the training will start working. Instead of your dog being fearful of you, having him trust you will cause him to be more comfortable around you and better able be trained.

If your dog is scared of you, he is less likely to be trained properly. Don’t punish the dog when he does something wrong. It is better to just reward him when he is good. Let him decide what to do and then reward him when he does the right thing.

Ask your buddy to jog and if the dog sits still, reward him. If not start over. It will learn going after a jogger is not the right thing to do.
