Dog-Training #2

Dog-Training

Does your dog do these things?

"He chews up all my pillows and shoes."
"She barks and barks until I can’t take it no more."
"Jumps onto the kitchen table and eats the meal you were about to eat?"
"He won't return after calling, whistling, or whatever you try?"

Then it may be time for some dog training with your pet, "Spot.". Many animals have never been trained, but we all expect them to act like they have been? Many folks end up yelling at their poor Fido or smacking their family pet. Maybe you have, once or twice caught yourself hitting your dog on the butt with a newspaper. You have to realize just like people, dogs need to be taught too! Don’t be one of the many who give up and then place their pet outside to live his/her days in solitude. And please, don’t even think about taking him/her to your locate pound, because you think that this animal is just out of control…. This is your family pet?

When it comes to training your pet, there are many forms of dog training. For example, behavior dog training (obedience training) would have prevented many of these problems and can help solve the bad behaviors that exist. Many people think that behavior dog training is something that is done to a dog to make it perform some certain activity on command.

Behavior dog training is to train dogs to be obedient, to obey anything and everything they're told to do. It covers a wide range of lessons a dog can learn, including tricks, good manners, show routines, and skill demonstrations.
Sniffing dogs, service dogs for handicapped owners, search and rescue dogs, sled dogs, hunting dogs -- all carry their behavior dog training to the highest degree. They have been trained to obey an unusual set of commands, which increase their value as helpers to man.

"Dog Type" also plays a part when training your pet. Training would be a breeze if our pets and we spoke the same language. With the different dog type comes attitudes, voice and body language, and mindset. They can be stubborn, dominant, submissive, or fearful, characteristics that can make them difficult to train. So please keep your dog type in mind when training your pet.

"A little trivia for all the dog lovers!"
