Fluff LOVES to bark. She barks at EVERYONE. I now own a pair of shredded shoes, (tasty leather) and she just did her business on the latest National Geographic!

Having a new dog can be a very challenging time when you’re faced with behavior problems. However, excellent improvement will happen when you use a powerful system to teach your dog every day. With the right information and system, she CAN make HUGE strides in 7 just days.

With the right information and a patient attitude, training your dog can be enjoyable for both of you. When you see how well your dog is learning the new commands, it will become fun, and you will both look forward to lessons. Also, knowing the basic commands like Come, Sit, Stay, and Heel will help keep your dog safe in dangerous situations, such as around traffic or strangers.

Make one person responsible for training your pet. This is important because the dog will find it easiest to become familiar with one person and their training methods because of the consistency of the training method. All the people that share a dwelling with the animal need to know that they must follow the training formula of the head trainer. When kids assist, they’ll need to be supervised, hopefully by the chief trainer.

Because dogs have limited attention spans, lessons should be 15 minutes long, or a little less. Lessons can be every day, or every second day. Feel free to skip a session occasionally if you don’t feel up to it. It’s important for it to be fun, and to be able to feel patient.

It’s very good to use the learned commands during daily life. This will help her to remember the commands. For instance, give your dog the Sit command throughout the day.

When using food rewards, make sure that training stints are before mealtimes (the dogs) so that he’s hungry and inspired to act.

Begin training in a quiet environment with few distractions, making it easier for her to focus on learning the new command. If you remove distractions, you will be the most interesting item in the room to your dog. Try to choose a quiet room, where you and your dog are alone. After she has learned the command, start adding distractions, such as having other people in the room.

After she’s demonstrated proficiency with the new commands, reinforce them using your body in different positions, then in other rooms of your house, and finally in the park with a leash. Verbalize the new commands while she is on your left or right, and with you standing and sitting. She will soon realize that no matter where you both are, or what your body language is, you want her to do the same thing each time. It’s crucial to reward her every time that she’s successful with the command. Don’t react when she is unsuccessful.

Perhaps the canine that you will be instructing is no longer a puppy. This is not necessarily a disadvantage. Grown dogs generally have better attention spans, which allows her to learn faster. This can compensate for previous instruction that may need to be unlearned.

Previous training could cause her to link a certain behaviour with the command word that you’re using. Maybe your dog is having trouble grasping what response you want for the word Come, use the same training sequence using Here, instead.

When you start using the command in a new situation, your pet may act a bit confused. Be relaxed, and allow yourself to back up the training a step or two, or give extra reinforcement in the new situation. It’s the way your dog learns to focus on your command, in spite of distractions that occur.
