Puppy training is an essential part of building a strong bond between the owner and their puppy companion. Here are some tips to make puppy training enjoyable and effective: Start Early: Begin training as soon as you bring your puppy home. Early socialization and positive experiences will help them adapt to different environments and build confidence. Positive / Negative Reinforcement: Use Positive & Negative reinforcement techniques such as treats, praise, and toys to reward good behavior.This encourages your puppy to repeat desirable actions. Consistency: Be consistent in your commands and expectations. Use the same cues for specific behaviors (e.g., “sit,” “stay,” “come”) and ensure everyone in the household follows the same rules. Short Sessions: Keep training sessions short (5-10 minutes) to prevent your puppy from getting overwhelmed. Frequent, brief sessions are more effective than long, infrequent ones. Patience: Training takes time, so be patient. Puppies learn at their own pace, and some may grasp concepts faster than others. Socialization: Expose your puppy to various people, animals, and environments. This helps them become well-adjusted and confident. Gradually introduce them to new experiences, such as car rides, different surfaces, and noises. Basic Commands: Teach basic commands like “sit,” “stay,” “down,” and “come.” These commands are essential for safety and communication. House Training: Consistency is key when house training your puppy. Take them outside frequently, especially after meals, playtime, and naps. Reward them when they eliminate in the appropriate spot. Leash Training: Introduce your puppy to a leash early on. Start indoors and gradually move to outdoor walks. Reward them for walking calmly on the leash. Avoid Compulsive Punishment: Never use physical punishment or harsh methods. Positive & Negative Reinforcement builds trust and strengthens behaviour with your training and puppy. Remember t
