Training a Dog not to Bark

When first bringing a new puppy home it is an exciting feeling, I know because I have experienced this myself. However you will soon learn that their is much responsibility that is needed to have this puppy and that the puppy must learn a few things him or herself.

Your new puppy will be quite dependant on you. The way you guide and train your dog will affect the way your puppy turns out when they are older. You are the person in charge of shaping the puppies temperament and behavior habit. If you train your dog, show it what is right and wrong from young as well as teach it different techniques then it will soon learn and be an obedient dog. However if you do not teach your dog anything and let the puppy walk around the house and do whatever he or she pleases then you will not have an obedient dog. Various things such as house training, crate training, the way your dog interacts with other puppies, leash training and basic obedience need to be taught right from the very start. Just like a child it is very important to use positive reinforcement and even rewards when training your puppy. It is best to start your training sessions as soon as your puppy gets home. Training sessions should be kept short consistent and both of you should always have fun. It is always best to start off with easy commands such as sit. It is important for you to remember that you are training a very young animal so you must have realistic expectations and be quite patient. Your puppy will not automatically know how to do a command and there will be quite a lot of mistakes through out the training. Just follow these dog training techniques and you will soon have a well trained puppy.
