Slide 1: ==== ==== Many problems reported by dog owners are with behaviors that are instinctual to the dog such as barking, digging, pulling, jumping up, nipping, chewing etc. Others are things that we have accidentally trained into the dog such as barking for attention. It helps to try to understand what is the dog's motivation for his behavior. For example, why won't your dog come to you when he's playing with other dogs even though he "knows" what "come" means? If your dog chooses not to come to you sometimes it is probably because coming to you is not more rewarding than what he is currently doing. Click this link for the solution!

Thus, it is necessary that dog owners implement a training on dog obedience. The training becomes even more challenging if the training involves puppies. Thus, practical tips and guidelines will serve as a big help to ensure the effectiveness of the dog obedience training. Assertiveness is considered a natural or hard-wired characteristic among the canine species. Thus, the lack of training would certainly trigger behavioral issues and dog obedience problems. A leader image would then be necessary to instill the attitude of obedience and discipline. Even some shy and timid canines will also benefit from dog obedience training. Through dog obedience training, you can teach confidence to the shy and timid four-legged friends while simultaneously teaching obedience and discipline to the unruly and uncontrollable dogs. Upon choosing a dog to adopt and to welcome as part of your family, it is essential to look into training your dog obedience problems. It is advisable to choose a dog that has already completed a dog obedience training to save time, money and effort. In addition, it will also mean that you will have less behavioral difficulties and problems to deal with once you start acting as the new owner of the dog. But, even if a dog has not yet completed the dog obedience training, there is still hope to make your pet a well-behaved and obedient one. If you fell in love with a dog with a dominant and strong personality, you need to have your dog subjected into dog obedience training or else your pet will really test your character and patience. Always remember that no matter how tamed or obedient your pet is, you still have to be extra patient to make your relationship more harmonious but being a dog owner becomes even more challenging and the need to be patient will be much stronger if you are dealing with unruly and undisciplined ones. One important guideline that dog owners should bear in mind is the individual differences among dogs. In the same way that individuals have different learning styles and paces, dogs also learn certain behaviors in different approaches, paces and styles. Dogs also have different personalities. Some may find it easy to get acquainted with new friends while some detest the sight and presence of a stranger. Some dogs are also hostile to the opposite sex. Indeed, you have to spend more time with your pet so you can understand its personality and attitudes. However, despite their individual differences, dogs also share common attributes. One of the traits that run similar among dogs is their territorial nature.
Slide 2: To train your dog to overcome its dog obedience problems and be obedient and disciplined, it is also equally important to train your pet to socialize with other animals. Once a pet learns to socialize with other animals, the animal also learns to place regard on other animals' wellbeing and convenience. By learning how to respect other animals' welfare, your pet will learn to be more disciplined and obedient. Experts would always recommend training a dog for socialization, discipline and obedience. Indeed, it would be more difficult and challenging to teach an old dog new tricks. Just like with humans, dogs learn best while they are still young. Thus, while your pet is still a puppy, take advantage of your pet's young age and innocence to instill the values of socialization, discipline and obedience. It is also easier to train puppies to be friendly with other animals since they still are not capable of distinguishing between friend or enemy. In addition, puppies just like kids see all situations as a new experience to be embraced and not to be feared. Take your puppy to crowded places. Walk them in parks where other pet owners also usually take their pets. The earlier the puppy gets used to be in the presence of other pets, the easier it will be for your pet to socialize with other animals. Train your pet to get used to physical contact with humans or with other animals such as being touched in the ears, between the toes or near the eyes. Later on, that training will bring convenience for you because you no longer have to pull your dog to the vet clinic. Let your pet interact with other animals such as cats and other dogs. However, make sure they do not become violent and aggressive. As soon as they start showing signs of dog obedience problems such as aggressive behaviour make sure you control them. Sniffing is normal but once they start biting a cat or a fellow dog, you have to intervene. You have to make sure they do not hurt other animals and people. Always remember that you will be the one to take responsibility if your pet causes injuries and damages to people and animals around. Be prepared to pull them away from the commotion. Use leather gloves so you will not be injured as well. If you find it difficult to stop your pet from barking, the best way to divert their attention is to give them a treat such as a toy or a sharp object. If the trick will not work, you can repeat the attempt the next day. Again, some dogs are easier to train than others. In addition, some tricks and techniques may work for other pets but may not be effective in training the others. Thus, it is advisable to observe the behavior of your pet so you will be able to identify what works and what does not work with your dog. When you adopt dogs from rescue shelters and rescue organizations, be prepared for greater dog obedience problems. Their past experiences of abandonment, neglect, abuse and torture have molded feelings and emotions of aggression, pain, hatred and anger. However, there is still a chance of transforming these angry, violent and nasty dogs into obedient, tamed and disciplined pets. The key is to subject them to repeated exposures to other people and other animals. The process may take a while. It will not be an overnight success but they will reach the point of tolerating other pets and people. Gradually increase or lengthen their exposure to crowds and groups of animals. You have to teach physical, mental and social discipline to your pet. Avoid letting other pets mingle with your pet inside the house. Your pet should be trained to get used to the external world. Use different reinforcement techniques to motivate and reward your dog's progress and performance. Treats such as food are effective reinforcements. In addition,
Slide 3: even verbal treats would also work well. You can just caress the fur of your pet and give a positive remark. By reinforcing positive, disciplined and obedient behavior of your pet, you instill selfconfidence in your pet and overcome any dog obedience problems. You also teach your pet which behaviors are pleasing and which are displeasing to it's owner. With that awareness, your pet will learn to behave appropriately.
