What is the best training method for your Dog?

What is the most popular training method in use today? The answer would be 損ositive reinforcement.?The concept 揘othing in life is free?is a successful way to live happily with your dog.

To start the program, you need to make a list of activities your dog loves to do. And, teach him basic puppy commands like: sit, down, stay, shake, speak, roll over, and so on.

Now, before you reward your dog with any 搇oving?activity like playing, petting, rubbing, or going for a walk, your dog must execute one of the commands well ?no shirking no avoiding.

The rule you must remember is simple 揘o work. No Play.?

Here is how:

You:

1. Put his leash in place to go for a walk.
2. Feed him.
3. Play with him when you return from work.
4. Rub his belly or scratch his head while watching TV.

In turn he must:

1. Sit patiently until you attach his leash.
2. Must lie down and stay until you put his food bowl down.
3. Must sit and shake hands each time you throw a ball/toy for him to fetch.
4. Must lie down and roll over before being petted.

Once you have given a command he must obey, otherwise you should not give him what he wants 杦alk away and ignore him. And begin once again after a few minutes. Show persistence and patience and you will find that he will toe the line.

The benefits are:

• Most dogs will acknowledge that you are the leader梩he alpha. They will follow your lead. This helps establish control even over a dominant dog.
• Even with affectionate/manipulative dogs this works, as you indicate you are no push over for a few licks/nudges/or limpid eyes.
• Obeying commands helps build confidence in dogs and makes them feel very secure. This works because; dogs descend from pack animals that have a social structure and hierarchy. The hierarchy serves to maintain order, reduce conflict, and promote harmony as well as cooperation within a group. In order that the home environment remains a haven and a safe happy place for pets ?it is important for you to assume the 慳lpha?position. By you and your children practicing 揘othing in Life is for Free,?your dog learns that he, in hierarchy, ranks below you and the children.

Whether you are a first time dog owner or a seasoned veteran, your learning never stops as far as it comes to training your dog. Each and every dog presents different training challenges, and the more equipped you are to handle these training issues the more likely you are to prevent any permanent and long term future behavioral problems.
