Do you know best things to practice with your dog?
Potty training
Puppy dogs have bad bladder control, and want to pee at the least every hour or two. They will pee spontaneously once they get excited, so take the puppy out often.
As you take your dog out-of-doors to go toilet, take him to the same exact part of the lawn so he knows where he ought to go; this will help keep your garden neat too. Try to boring as possible, ignoring your puppy and let him smell all-around. If he goes potty outdoors, praise him enthusiastically. Give affection, treats, whatever your puppy enjoys; reinforcing the good behaviour. But if your dog does not go toilet outside the house, bring him back inside and repeat in half an hour.
Leads, leases and harnesses
A flat collar and harness is the most dog-friendly style of pet walking apparatus. When your puppy pulls, or lunges at anything, a harness will send out the force of the pull through the torso and help to protect vulnerable vertebrae and throat areas.
Puppy Obedience Training
Employing some suitable dog obedience training at an early age is actually a most efficient method to right any behavioural problems, and stop any future difficulty. A lot of behaviour problems (including barking, biting and digging) stem from no communication or miscommunication between you the owner and the dog. Basically, the dog does not understand what he’s doing wrong or right.
Prevent the dog gnawing
Should you catch the biting issue in early stages it may be easy to correct. Try to route the biting from your flesh to a toy or chew bone. For very young puppies this process is commonly all you’ll need do. Once your dog commences to bite your hands let out a firm “No!” and replace your fingers with the chew bone (or even an ice cube if the puppy dog is teething)!
Separation Anxiety
There are a few things to attempt when your doggy is making a chaos when he’s left home alone. Try leaving your dog a piece of clothing that has your smell on it. This may ease and comfort a distressed dog – ensure it is something you do not mind being chewed up though. Try serving your dog his main meal just as you are exiting the house. If you frequently have the radio on when at home, let it stay on while you are out. This is often comforting in mild instances of stress and anxiety in dogs.
Biting
Start on the first day to let your puppy dog know that nipping is not acceptable. Cease actively playing with your dog each time he bites or nips – draw away from the pup and put him on the ground right away as you make a unhappy sound with your voice. Wait for about five seconds, and then continue calm play and handling as though nothing at all had happened. Your dog shall learn that everything, particularly fun, stops when he bites!
