The Best Puppy Obedience Training Advice That Will Help You Train Your New Puppy
One of the best pieces of advice for your puppy obedience training plan, is to beware of teaching your puppy bad behaviour. Of course you are probably thinking, why would I be teaching my puppy bad behaviour, are you mad? Of course I am sure you would never intentionally teach your puppy bad behaviour, but if you stop and think for a moment, maybe you are teaching your puppy bad behaviour without realising it.
What seems like cute behaviour in a puppy is not so cute when he is a full grown dog, so if you are letting your puppy get away with certain behaviour, then maybe you should think about it more carefully.
Are you allowing your puppy to jump up at people when they come and visit you? Maybe you also let your puppy jump up at you when you come home from work. This may seen cute and funny now but when he is a full grown dog it may not be so funny, especially if he is a large breed of dog. It would not be so nice for your visitors to have a great big dog jumping up at them. He could one day send your granny flying or knock her over and he could scare young children too by jumping up at them. So if your puppy does jump up at people it would be a good idea to stop him now while he is still a puppy.
Having a new puppy means lots of fun and games. Perhaps you are running around with your puppy and maybe playing chase with him. If you are playing chase and your puppy is running away from you, what would happen if you were in the street and he slipped his leash and there was traffic around? So it is essential to teach your puppy to come to you on command. When you are out with your puppy there could be all sorts of danger around and if you puppy is not trained to be obedient and follow your commands you could be heading for trouble when he is a full grown dog.
It is not only puppies that need obedience training, their owners may also need training too!
