Better Your Life By Training Your Dog

Posted on 02 March 2009 by admin

Training your dog is a long and rewarding process. By teaching your dog to obey you, you are skyrocketing the standard of life for both dog and master.

As with any healthy relationship, both parties need to develop a knowledge of who is the boss, what their expectancies are, and so on.

Imagine having the ability to take your dog out for a stroll without being jerked around on a leash. Telling your dog to ’stay’ and knowing that you will not have to keep your leash handy. Imagine letting your dog play with the children and knowing that no-one will need a band help or disinfectant later. When it comes to dog coaching, psychology is simple.

By rewarding good behavior, your dog will learn to enjoy obeying you, and to associate good feelings with good behavior. Likewise, your dog will learn how to dodge bad behavior, and all the headaches that would cause you, and, indirectly, your dog. That’s all there is to it.

Giving your pet rewards is a pretty pretty straightforward process - You either heap praise on the dog, give a radical petting, or give a treat, for doing good things. Care should be taken not to go overboard. If you find that you hate the idea of over-feeding your dog, you may use a strategy called ‘clicker coaching’ to accomplish the same goals.

Trained pets do not need to be able to jump through hoops, they simply need to listen when their told, and do what they are told. Through good praise, use of treats and toys, and a caring trainer, this can be accomplished with time, love and patience.
