A question many people ask me is should I train my dog or how much training is necessary for my puppy. Dog obedience training is more then just telling your dog what to do or telling him to stop practicing a particular behaviour, it is about building trust with your dog and letting him know that he can feel secure and that you will look after him. is not just for elite competition or show dogs. I believe at least a basic level of should be given for every dog or puppy.
When training your dog you will need a great deal of patience and perseverance. Some dogs will pick things up quicker then others and you will need to alter your training techniques slightly for different breeds of dogs and different temperaments.
Behaviour Training Problems
Dogs often develop behavioural problems such as digging up the yard and chewing everything in sight. These behavioural problems can become a major problem if your dog exhibits aggressive behaviour patterns such as biting, lunging at people, and excessive barking. I deal with specific techniques to deal with these problems on my website but for now lets look at the general principles behind training your dog.
Types of Training
There are generally two broad categories for dog training, positive reinforcement and negative reinforcement. The former is a much kinder and a more effective way to train your dog. This involves such rewards as praise, food and some replace the food reward with a clicker.
Negative reinforcement may work but it will not develop trust and loyalty with your dog. It will cause the dog to act out of fear and not out of a willingness to please you. I do not recommend this kind of training. It can be tempting to resort to this when you are getting frustrated with your dog but a much better approach is to alter your training slightly to a method that your dog will understand.
Dog behaviour training is an activity that we do with our dogs. With the right techniques is fun for the dog and owner and will make living with your dog a much more joyful experience.
