Training Tips

Here you will find good training tips that will help you and your pooch be #1

1. positive reinforcement. Always reward your dog after he does a trick or anything you like. If you and your pooch are more advanced like agility or long tricks I would recommend a clicker to reward and exact moments.
2.never use your hands to force. It is never a good idea to push a dogs bottom if you want them to sit. I recommend holding a treat in your hand about a little lower than your dog's head and hold it there until he sits. For laying down hold it to the floor.
3.take breaks. Most dogs have short attention spans so always take breaks and then come back to your training.
4.house training. It is always hard and frustrating, but it's not impossible. If your dog has an accident say NO firmly but not yelling, then take your dog outside. Keep repeating this until your dog understands. Always remember that when your dog is not house trained, it is not his fault so roll up a newspaper and whack yourself in the head because it is your fault for not taking the dog out on time (I'm just messing with you:)
