What are the basic dog commands?
It's the vision that we as puppy owners all dreamt about. A puppy that's leisurely strolling beside you, or sitting calmly at your feet at an outside cafe. But there are several steps to complete to make sure your pup is on the best track using their training to be able to make it!
Initially, that perfect pup can come with some growing pains: nipping, chewing, potty accidents, barking, and more. Your puppy keeps growing and developing quickly. Once they've been home for a few weeks, your puppy ought to know the basics of a daily routine and be taking care of some obedience training and learning basic commands.
So how do you know what you need to begin training your pup first on? No real matter what age you buy your brand-new pup, you need to use our puppy training schedule as a guideline to help your puppy grow, develop, and learn the nice manners they need at home and in the world to greatly help shape them into becoming that perfect pup you envisioned!
1.Use your pup's food for training!
Your puppy's food is an exceptional resource and one of the best tools you need to use to coach your puppy! In those early puppyhood months, having your puppy benefit their food is a super-easy way to get and hold their attention you, rewards them for doing so, and creates a positive association with looking for your requirements for direction!
At The Puppy Academy, we have our students bring their lunch to school using them, and we use that meal for his or her training sessions. It's also area of the foundation for the Online Training School. In both programs, you'll often hear us recommending our pup parents keep a delicacy pouch on or near them all the time at first weeks using their new pup at home. (Don't worry, you are able to and will wean off while they get older!) Having use of your pup's food will come in so handy for redirecting them from something they're doing that you never want them to accomplish, getting them to come quickly to you, having them focus for you to build that guidance-based relationship, and reward them for their good behaviors to encourage them to achieve that again!
2. Be Patient and Consistent!
It's simple to become frustrated with the puppy training process. Puppies are young and still working out the entire world, so they'll make mistakes. It requires time for you to establish communication between yourself and your puppy, so don't expect them to get it on the first try!
To get them on course faster, maintain a steady schedule for your puppy. Consider creating a daily puppy schedule which includes potty breaks, feeding and playtimes, puppy training sessions, and nap times! This will help your puppy learn to understand the daily household routine, feel confident and secure, provide structure, and promote good behavior.
