Practical tips for teaching your puppy good manners

Are you one of those who lock up their dog when visitors arrive? This situation offers a very classic picture in many homes, even in the case of friendly dogs ... But if only their owners had taught them some manners when they were dog, it could surely coexist harmoniously with any visit.

Although the vast majority of the time it is advisable to go to a behaviorist expert, there are many "masters" who have the attitude and the time necessary to teach good manners to their faithful companions. Educational toys for different levels are sold in many petshops, which serve as entertainment as well as learning. You can see on specialized websites, such as ShopAlike, a series of very interesting products for the training process.

Thinking of giving your puppy some classes? If so, these tips will be of great use to you. First of all, you should consider that puppies have very short attention spans, so you should educate your pet for only a few minutes per lesson. When your puppy is between four and six months of age, he can begin more formal obedience lessons.

Within this approach, you must bear in mind that "bribes" have surprising results. You must always reward the desired behaviors of your puppy, either with cuddles, food o toys. You must also be persistent and consistent.

Below we will list some basic orders

  • Outside / Don't jump: It is the key word that the puppy should be told to move backwards. The expression should be very emphatic, such as "don't jump!" By way of recognition, don't forget to give her a kibble when she sits or stays still.
  • Speak: For this exercise, you must show him a sandwich and say "speak!" You may have to "bark" in order for him to get the idea.
  • Shut up: This command begins to be very important as soon as the dog begins to bark.
  • Dame: This command is vital for the puppy to learn to give up its toys and food. It is a good idea to start by offering a toy for food as an exchange.
  • Grab / Drop: To do this activity, it is recommended to go for a walk, throw a sandwich in front of him, and say "grab it!" When the puppy understands the action, proceed with a "leave it!" and drop the sandwich. When he goes for the sandwich, you should put a very gentle touch on the nose while exhorting "quit!"

You already have some useful tips to start with the exercises of training of your puppy. What are you waiting to start?
