Everyone knows what it is like to get a puppy for the first time, especially when you were a child. If you're looking to get a new puppy it's likely now one for your children and although there is probably lots of excitement, you know it won't be plain sailing.
It is a good idea to get the entire family involved right from the beginning even before you bring the new puppy home. Let everyone understand that there will have to be rules not only for the dog but for the family too.
As soon as the new pup is brought home you should start with its behavior training. Don't wait until it starts to develop habits and then try and break them.
A few basic things you will need to take care of before the new member of the family joins you will be to create a comfortable place for it to sleep and eat. Also be sure to designate an area outside for it to do its business.
Once the place for the puppy to sleep, eat and toilet has been decided and the family is in agreement on each of their roles with regard to the training of the puppy you need to decide who will be in charge of the dog. Someone has to take sole responsibility to training the right behaviors while everyone else fulfills a backup role.
Consistency is crucial to behavior training for you puppy. Simple things like always praising your dog when it does something good or reprimanding it in the same way when it does something wrong will go a long way in getting the best behavior.
Some think that the growl method of training is silly or not useful, but watch a mother dog with her pups and you will soon realize that the puppy's actions are curbed by a snap or growl. We are not saying to nip at your pet but a low growl or a sharp, "No" will cause the puppy to discontinue its unwanted behavior.
Behavior training should be done in the moment. This means that should your puppy start to do something you don't want it to do like chew on a slipper, for instance, you will need to enforce discipline right there and then. The dog will not learn if you wait until later and then try and teach it not to chew on shoes.
Once you have a technique for disciplining then get everyone to use the same technique. This will speed up the effectiveness of the behavior training.
Having patience is imperative in order to be in control while you train your dog. The level of time spent with the dog will pay off in the long run with a well behaved and respectful animal.
