If you have no clue how to train a dog, don't worry too much. You're already over the first hurdle, which is searching the net for dog training advice. The following dog training tips and techniques will help you train your dog quickly and efficiently.

Put yourself in the dog's situation. Things that seem simple to you may not be as simple to your dog if he is having a hard time learning them. Understand your dog's position, to reduce any tension that you may have towards them. Your dog might not be making the connection between the order and the behavior you expect from them because you have not repeated the exercise enough times.

Below Are Some Basic Dog Training Tips

1. Schedule Dog Feeding Time - Set a schedule and routine for feeding your dog from the very beginning of your relationship. You can set a firm schedule by teaching the dog to anticipate that the food will be removed within 10 to 15 minutes of the start of mealtime. Remove the bowl when he is done eating.

2. Be Cautious When Providing Rewards - Make sure that you use control to reward your dog's good training behavior. Reward them only when your dog is calm after it performs a trick. Though you may be happy with the accomplishment, excitement on your part leads to excitement on their part and diminishes control of the situation. You should stay calm and then give the reward.

3. Make The Training Consistent - Stay with the training, so that he doesn't forget the lessons that he learned. Keep him in practice. It is easy to feel that once your dog's training is over; the lessons are learned and will stay with the dog forever. Some dogs will revert back to negative behaviors if the training does not continue. For this reason, it is essential to make sure that your dog adheres to a clear-cut set of rules.

4. Do Not Over Train - You will be doing more harm than good if you over train your puppy. You need to keep your training sessions short so that your puppy pays attention. If you try to do too much too fast, he will associated it as a negative experience and will resist in the future.

5. The Spray Bottle - You can use a spray bottle filled with water as a mild aversive to prevent inappropriate chewing. This lets your dog know that specific actions are not acceptable. Before long, your dog will no longer display these behaviors, and will be obedient and playful.

Since you now have what you need, you can use this information to properly train a dog. It is very important to have the right information before you begin training your new dog.
