Some value bombs I learned 🐶
🔹Remember to be patient, loving and kind.❤️
🔹Having a pet is a 24-7 commitment. The unconditional love they give is amazing. But remember they need some direction. Try to make your training and socializing a positive and good thing.
🔹Treat reward training is great way to go.
🔹Find a trainer with positive methods that you like and feel comfortable with. You can take your puppy to socialization classes or you can even train your dog on your own
🔹No question is a dumb question, so ask. If you don’t ask, how are you going to find out. If you choose group classes you also find out, that you are not alone.
🔹Socialize your puppy so that your puppy meets LOTS of different people different ethnic backgrounds and demographics such as small kids, men, women etc…
🔹Your puppy should interact with people and any novel thing such as riding in the car, wearing a harness by using positive associations.
🔹Be patient, be kind. Your pup wants to please you. Remember to be consistent.
🔹Say a command only once, then show direction so the dog understands. Repeating the “SIT” command 6 X does not make a pup understand.
