Basic Dog Training Commands
Basic Dog Training
Basic dog training is teaching a dog for definite subjects,
exercises, and skills. In general, this process is easy, but
requires time and patinece of a handler. The most common question of
puppy owners is when to start dog socialization and basic dog
training.
Before we answer it we'd like to define the difference of these
notions.
Dog socialization is the process of training a dog to treat calmly
other dogs, people, pets, and animals around, to behave adequately
at home and out, understanding of what is a car and that it is not
to be chased, etc.
As for the dog training notion it is a system of
commands that a dog is to be trained to. In the order for the dog to
perform definite tasks it has to know definite commands that are
defined by the basic dog training. Concluding from these the first
thing to do is to let your dog understand who is the leader at home
to make it obey.
Thus, the dog is to be educated at once it appears
at your home. And basic dog training is to be started when a dog is
2 months old. It is considered that a puppy is trained the best way
in the age from 2 till 3 months. But it does not mean that you have
to finish dog training to all commands and subjects within one
month! A dog is to be trained throughout whole its life.
For
training exercises it is enough several minutes daily. Start from
5-10 minutes several times a day. Your voice and tone should
motivate your dog to listen to you. It is a key for dog interest in
training and success.
As a rule, basic dog training at home starts
from the commands "come", "place", and "no". These are the basic dog
training commands for a puppy to master.
