Secrets Of Training Your Dog
By Gutierrez Mayte
Of course you have noticed that when it had already passed like 10 or 20 minutes after your dog eats, it wants to go to the bathroom, and we are going to tell you that you are right.
So, what you have to do is to put some sheets of news paper in the place that you want your dog goes to the bathroom. You need to figure out that the place where you put those sheets weren't to close to the place that he eats and drinks water.
Now the next step is to pay attention to the movements of your dog. When you see your dog walking in circles and smelling the floor like searching something, you can be sure that your dog wants to go to the bathroom.
When you see this attitude you need to distract your dog and go whit it to the place that you put the sheets of paper, if your dog goes to the bathroom on the sheets of paper, congratulate it.
So this way your dog is going to learn that, if it makes the things right you will congratulate it, and be very proud of it.
Now your dog recognize the sheets of paper like a permitted area to go to the bathroom, live it like a week for the dog, with the propose that it learn and also that it could practice every day.
If you decide to change the place that you have assigned for the sheet of paper, move it like 30 centimeters every day, this way your dog doesn't figure out the change.
You need to pay attention when your dog finishes eating or drinking water because after that moments its when the accidents occur and you will need to start again with all the process.
An other tip is:
If your dog have already choose a place for going to the bathroom, you can put the sheets of paper over there, and start moving until the place you want that your dog goes to the bathroom.
Also is not fair that you give milk to the dogs if you have a puppy, give them water, because isn't the best way to convene their meals.
Finally I recommend you to give love to your pets, and think that with love they would lean more than with out love.

How To Find A Good Dog Trainer
By Andrew Strachan
One of the main problems when starting a behavior training routine with your dog is finding the time.
Training your dog is not something that you can do a bit here, and a bit there. A rigorous schedule is needed to keep your dog on a steep learning curve.
For many people, this is just not possible with work commitments etc. This is where a professional dog trainer can step in. As with most professions, the cost involved and the quality of the end product vary wildly. This should be the first thing you consider before hiring a dog trainer.
Considerations Before Getting A Dog Trainer
Firstly, think about your budget. How much are you willing to spend on your dog? Prices will vary from free to over $100 per session. Sometimes animal shelters will offer weekly free lessons to help you train your dog but these are not going to be as thorough as a twice weekly session with a personal dog trainer.
Your costs will depend on what you want to achieve and how fast you want to achieve it.
Dog Trainer Schools
Consider your schedule. Training sessions will usually require you to take your dog to a session and pick him up later. Also there will be training needed in-between the main training sessions. You will be expected to spend time reinforcing what your dog has learned at the session. This may require up to an hour per day practicing with your dog.
Also think about your goals. Some people just want to train the dog not to chew the couch or chase cats. Others may want to take their dog to dog shows and agility exhibitions. Whatever your goals, regular training will be needed. How much training and what type will depend on your dogs breed and individual personality.
Some dogs can be overly timid and fearful. Others may be overly aggressive and boisterous. What type of training your dog requires will be down to these types of factors.
Aside from these basic considerations, you will want to find a trainer that shares your outlook towards dog training. Some dog trainers can be very soft towards the dog and lenient. Others may have a style bordering on the aggressive sometimes found with ex police force and military dog training professionals. A lot of dog trainers lie somewhere in-between.
If you are to be happy about sending your dog to a training session, you need to agree with their methods.
Probably the best avenue for finding a dog trainer is personal recommendation from a trusted source. A friend or family member who has had their dog trained by a professional trainer. If you do not know anybody, shop around. Also don't be afraid to swap trainers a few times if you are not happy with the way things are going.
Good luck and happy hunting!

Which is the Right Leash for Your Puppy or Dog?
By Aidan Bindoff
Which is the right leash for your puppy or dog? With so many to choose from, picking a leash for your new puppy or dog can be confusing. There are really only a few things you need to know, and when you know them, selecting a leash for your puppy or dog is really quite simple!
The best general purpose leash is about 4' (120cm) long, and well made. Look for quality stitching, and a material that will not burn or chafe your hands. Leather is excellent quality and very long lasting if cared for properly. I prefer a cotton/synthetic webbing, the softer the better.
A 4' leash will not encourage bad habits. If you follow a pulling dog, that dog will learn to pull. There is no need for a 'training' collar or reprimands. Any flat collar or harness is fine so long as you are consistent and do not follow a pulling dog. Your dog should ideally walk by your side and not stray too far from that position, a longer leash allows your dog too much freedom.
That is not to say that we cannot give our dogs free time to explore on leash, and when we do give the signal, a longer leash is appropriate. A 'flexi' style retractable leash is great in this situation, although a very strong dog may damage a retractable leash. An aggressive dog is probably not safe on a retractable leash unless the leash is very good quality.
If you plan to do any tracking with your dog, then a good quality 30' (10m) leash is a good investment. Again, I prefer a soft cotton webbing although there are lightweight climbing ropes which do not get heavy when wet and will not chafe or burn. Two knots should be tied, one at the end to stop the line from running out and one about 6' from the end let you know when you are about to run out of line.
I also use my 30' tracking line when I am just ambling through the forest and have signalled to my dog that it is ok to explore within that length of line. Just putting that leash on is signal enough.
A 30' tracking line is also excellent for teaching recalls and stays when you are not in a safe off-leash training area.
The fittings on the end of the leash need to be very good quality. A strong snap-style fitting is best, as it is easy to use and generally trouble free. If you and your dog spend a lot of time at the beach, they will rust out and get jammed with sand unfortunately. I had a leash made with a brass diver's snap. Sand does not get caught in the spring and it does not rust, however it does not have a very strong spring and has come undone by accident. I think it's probably better to just wash out a good quality snap with fresh water and apply a little water dispersant (CRC or WD40) after a visit to the beach.
Cotton or synthetic leashes will need to be washed occassionally, which will greatly enhance their life. By the same token, don't store them in direct sunlight. The same is true of leather leashes. An occassional rub down with leather preservative is all that a leather leash requires.
If you have a dog who enjoys biting at the leash then training can be employed to bring this behavior under control. I favour deliberately teaching a dog to play tug with the leash and putting the behavior on cue, that way I develop control over the behavior and can use it as a reward for other behavior.
A quicker solution to biting the leash is to get a 4' metal chain leash, which is not nearly so enjoyable to bite on. Get one with a snap which attaches to a normal flat collar, some come as choker chains. If you are competent with a choker chain (check chain), then go right ahead and use it as such, but most people are not nearly so competent as they might imagine and would be better served learning positive reinforcement training methods. Positive reinforcement traning methods are far less likely to damage your relationship with your dog, your dog's spine and trachea, and your dog's enjoyment of working and walking.

Best Tricks You Can Teach to Your Dog - Training to Stay in 3 Dead Simple Steps!
By Pawel Kalkus
Training a dog to stay is a basis for all other, more advanced tricks you can teach to your dog. Training to stay will also lead to having a more reliable pet that is easy to control and stays out of trouble. It may even save your pup's life by preventing him from chasing cars, other animals or people. It is also useful in an everyday life, for example when you invite guests and want them to feel comfortable while being in the same room as your dog. Training to stay comes down to two stages:
Teaching Tricks To Dog. Training To Stay - Step 1
You need to understand that knowing how to please you is one of the most important things for your dog. Training to stay is based on this rule and requires a lot of patience and consistence from your side. Before you start the training you will need to prepare a lot of tasty treats first (pieces of cheese or frankfurters or dog snacks will be perfect for this task). They will serve as rewards and indicate to your pet that he's doing well.
Teaching Tricks To Dog. Training To Stay - Step 2
Teaching Tricks To Dog. Training To Stay - Step 3
You are now ready to move to the next stage. Repeat the first two steps from the previous paragraph but instead of waiting next to your dog after you give him the 'stay' command move back a step or two. Your pet will instinctively want to follow you so make sure to repeat the command if he does so (keep the palm of your hand in front of his nose). If he manages to remain stable in one position give him another treat, then release from the command and shower with praise. Repeat the entire procedure but try to make the distance between both of you a bit bigger every time.
Now, I know how annoying it is when your dog can't resist to move and can't stay still when you need him to. This may be risky at times, especially when you're in the middle of the city center with lots of cars passing by. However, there is a great guide dedicated to solving this problem and you can access it instantly at http://www.iwanttotrainmydog.info/ This is the exact method I used to train my dog to stay and I vouch for it.

It is also useful in an everyday life, for example when you invite guests and want them to feel comfortable while being in the same room as your dog. Training to stay comes down to two stages:
- a) training dog to stay while standing right next to him,
- b) training dog to stay while moving away from him.
Teaching Tricks To Dog. Training To Stay - Step 1
You need to understand that knowing how to please you is one of the most important things for your dog. Training to stay is based on this rule and requires a lot of patience and consistence from your side.

They will serve as rewards and indicate to your pet that he's doing well.
Teaching Tricks To Dog. Training To Stay - Step 2
- 1. Now, the very first thing you will need to do is to command your pet to sit. Remember to reward him every time he obeys your orders as this is a crucial dog training element.
- 2. Next, put your hand up with the palm facing the dog's nose and say firmly 'stay'. Wait for a second or two and reward him immediately with praise and a treat.
- 3. Release your dog from the command by saying 'OK' or 'free' and reward him once again.
- 4. Now, repeat this entire procedure couple of times per day until you're pet will be able to remain in the 'stay' position for a few minutes.
Teaching Tricks To Dog. Training To Stay - Step 3
You are now ready to move to the next stage. Repeat the first two steps from the previous paragraph but instead of waiting next to your dog after you give him the 'stay' command move back a step or two.

Dog Training - Reward and Punishment
By Regybelle Fuentes
One of the most common practices in dog training is the reward and punishment method. Most of the time, training establishes some consequences for the dog's behavior or reaction towards a certain prompt or situation.
Basically, there are four types of consequences involved in dog training: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, positive punishment, and negative punishment.
First, positive reinforcement calls the trainer to add a special treat for the pet to the situation, to encourage the dog to exhibit the same behavior or response again. Most of the time, trainers use the positive reinforcement to increase good behavior. Food treats, tug toys, interactions with other dogs, or special play time with the owners are common rewards given to pets.
Second, we have negative reinforcement, which removes something from the pet to increase the exhibition of a negative response or behavior. Alright, now some of you might get confused. It means that you ought to take away something that your dog doesn't like. Say for example, he hates being on the leash for a long time, so you can lessen his leash time. Or say, he doesn't like eating a particular food you keep adding to his diet, then take that away.
Third, we have positive punishment. Asking, "how can punishment be positive?" is a good question, but yes, it can be positive if administered correctly. Positive punishment means that you add something to the present situation, so as to decrease the chances of exhibiting the same response or behavior. Now, with this consequence, make sure that you aren't too harsh on your pet that he becomes traumatized.
Lastly, we have negative punishment, which is the direct opposite of positive reinforcement. This means that you take away something from him to decrease the exhibition of the same behavior or response. Like taking away his favorite chew toy or favorite food.
Most trainers use the positive training methods, which is a reward-based training for your dogs, instead of the punishment-based training. If you have no ideas on what method to persue there are a lot of dog training review sites out there and try checking them out.
Regybelle Fuentes
Dogs do give us joy and company at all times. Giving them the right dog training will bring out the best in them and you will benefit more from them. Here are several dog training review sites that will surely help you in decide what is best.

3 Types of Dog Training
By Regybelle Fuentes
Before you say, "Oh! There are types of dog training?! Aren't they just all the same?" let me tell you now that yes, there are. The three types of dog training are: behavior training, obedience training, and activity training.
Now, I guess that most of us are familiar with these two words, behavior and obedience. But sometimes, the line that distinguishes one from the other gets too blurred up. While activity training maybe something new for you.
So first, there's BEHAVIOR TRAINING, where your pet gets to be taught all about being a good and upstanding "citizen" in the society. Basically, this means housetraining, good behavior when they are in public with other people around, reasonable and practical leash etiquette, and other trivial, yet important, things that would generally make your pet a better companion.
And then there's OBEDIENCE TRAINING, which teaches your dog to perform specific activities, such as traditional obedience exercise like heeling. This type of training puts heavy stress on prompt and precise performances. And this is what your obedience school does in essence. Now, while there are many advantages in obedience training, this type of training is just for that, training, and does little to improve your dog's over-all behavior.
Lastly, we have ACTIVITY TRAINING that trains your pet for specific activities, such as herding, Search and Rescue, bomb and drug sniffing, and hunting among many things. This training is specifically designed to showcase your abilities as a handler, and of course, your dog's talents also.
Now that you know all those things, what kind of training do you think, would fit your dog? If you dont have any idea on what to do you can always refer to dog training reviews which can surely help you from basic to advance coarse.
