Basic Dog Training Can Save Your Life

All dogs must have some form of basics dog training to equip them to be able to live with their owners and along side other dogs socially. Their are numerous opportunities now to be able to access basics dog training, whether it be via the net or local basic obedience training classes.

Initially you only need to train your dog with a limited basic commands. A trained dog is a happy dog with in turn means a happy family all round.The basic dog training not only involves teaching to obey some basic commands such as come, sit, and stay but to housebreak a puppy is the most significant part of the training. Housebreaking a puppy means to train the puppy to have a good excretory habits, which are must for the indoor dogs to learn.

However, teaching a dog to act as per the command “come” is the easiest of all. Call the puppy by its name showing some toy or some treat in the hand and as soon as the puppy arrives, praise him lavishly and reward him with some treats. Repeat the exercise for several times and within a very short spell of time the puppy will learn to come instantly upon being called. This exercise should be the starting point because this not only teaches the puppy to come on command but also becomes familiar with his name at the same time.

Advanced Basic Dog Training

After the successful accomplishment of the “housebreaking” and “recall” sessions the puppy should be put to some of the advanced sessions of the basic dog training course such “sit and down” and then “socializing”. Teaching the puppy to sit on command is also very easy. The best way is to hold a biscuit in the hand, take it near its nose so that the puppy can feel the smell and then gradually take it straight back towards its tail, simultaneously utter in a cool voice the word “sit”. This should make the puppy sit as it will try to maintain a steady eye contact to the biscuit. As soon as the puppy sits down the trainer should praise him as much as he can and reward the lovely little pooch with a piece of biscuit. Repeating the exercise several times will teach the puppy to sit on command.

The trainer must give occasional play breaks and should not expect much from the little one. If the puppy finds the exercise enjoyable, the training becomes quicker and easier.

Puppy’s Social Life
The basic dog training course also includes socializing the puppy, which is important, because unless the puppy is being socialized properly to the external world he or she may develop certain behavioral problem in future, which may be a nightmare for the owner. Socializing must be done with other dogs, the general mob and also the running cars and blowing horns. The dog cannot be socialized within the zone where he stays and plays regularly.
