Training a Puppy on a Lead.

noreply@blogger.com (Lee Justin Collins) — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 22:18:00 +0000

Training a Puppy on a Lead, may be a crucial part of training their Puppy to be safe, and obedient.
Their are many ways to training your dog on a lead, and many of these ways are incorrect. The main reason people fail, when it comes to Training a Puppy on a Lead, is because, it's not considered part of Training a Puppy, and it should be.

I have had this problem, and i'm sure, almost every Dog owner has. You need patience, as with all Dog Training, because it will not happen overnight, unless you have access to Cesar Millan.

The most important step you must understand, is that walking your Dog, cannot be part of Lead Training, it simply wont happen. If you take your Dog for a walk, without teaching it the basics inside it's boundaries, it will likely, pull and pull, until you reach the destination, and he's let off, to run like crazy.

Training a puppy to walk on a lead is hard work, and like we said, you need patience and understanding. You can purchase many training aids, but they seldom work.
Like we said above, teach your dog the basics of being on a lead inside, or near your home.
When he or she understands the simple rules, then take him further outside of his boundaries.

If you are wanting to Potty Train your Puppy, simply follow these simple steps.
Their are 4 quick steps, that can easily create a routine, that you and your Puppy will love.

1. Leave your Puppy in his Crate, until you think he needs to go.
2. When the time is right, take him outside, walking through the same door every time, so your Puppy knows which door to use, when he's old enough to do so himself. Place him on the ground, in his designated area, and encourage him to go. If your Puppy does his business, give him praise, and give him a treat.
3. If your Puppy does not eliminate after 10-15 minutes, take him back inside, through the same door your exited, and place them back in their Crate. Take them back outside, after 15 minutes, and repeat the steps.
4. Follow this routine for a week or two, and your new Puppy, will start to learn this routine.

Your Puppy will learn and start to enjoy this simple routine, and you will too.
The difference you will see in your Puppy in a month or so, will be enormous.

Training treats are one of the most popular ways of praising your pet, when he or she has followed a certain command. Their are however a couple of things you should know, before starting this kind of training.

Here is an excellent article on Puppy Training.

5 Must Read Tips to Puppy Training.

By Pat Turman

Buy a puppy training book, do a search on the internet for training puppies, or ask your local veterinarian where to find the best puppy training classes in the area. However, you choose to train your puppy here are 5 tips to help you train your puppy.

Tip # 1 - Be consistent and patient. I cannot stress enough when training a new puppy about consistency and patience. Remember this is just a little thing that wants nothing more than to please its master but does not have the mental capacity at such a young age to just "get it". You have to be patient and repeat yourself over and over again. He'll get it but it will take a little time and he will make mistakes. Also realize some breeds will learn faster than other breeds so stick with it.

Tip # 2 - Create some type of reward system for your puppy that he or she only gets during the puppy training process. For example: If you are using dog treats to reward your puppy only provide those treats during puppy training and only when the puppy has completed the command. If you give the puppy his treats throughout the day just because this will confuse the puppy. You can use the puppy's favorite toy or training aid as a positive reward and to reinforce the command. Some trainers use a puppy's play toy and only play with the puppy using the toy during the training process.

Tip #3 - Purchase a puppy crate as a training aid for the puppy. Dog crates can be used to housebreak new puppies, train puppies to stay on command, relieve anxiety in puppies, and also train puppies that a crate is their safe haven. Many people believe that using crates, cages, or kennels is cruel. This is farthest from the truth. The truth is training a puppy using a crate can improve puppies behavior and mannerisms.

Tip #4 - Do not punish your puppy during puppy training. Many people believe that if you punish the puppy while training this will correct the bad behavior and speed up the learning process. This too is not true. Positive reinforcement and praise is the best way to train your new puppy. Punishing your dog could create a very aggressive dog and dangerous dog. Stick with the positive rewards and watch your puppy thrive to please you and your family.

Tip # 5 - If you feel that you cannot train your puppy yourself then hire a dog trainer or sign up for dog training classes. If you hire a dog trainer do not think that you will not be involved in your puppy's training. It is very important that you are the one that is giving your puppy the commands and you are the one the puppy will trust. Dogs look to their owners for safety and protection. In return they will be well mannered and good socialized dogs who will love their owner unconditionally.

Attending puppy training classes with your puppy is a great way to learn techniques to train your puppy and also allow your puppy to learn how to socialize with other dogs and people. Contact your local veterinarian for suggestions on dog training classes in your area or contact the local animal shelter.

A well trained and obedient dog will be a perfect fit into you family and give your family years of love, joy, and fun. All that dogs ask is to be given the same from their family.
