Hey, Allan Codling here, ready for some dog training advice? First off I want to congratulate you if you're a dog lover and you are the one training your dog. If you are not the one training your pup I suggest you should be. It's more rewarding, more fun, very effective and loads cheaper than schools and trainers. You know people think that dog training is a one way street and that it is just the dog learning. In all actuality, you the owner are also learning so much about your dog's wants, needs, likes, dislikes, strengths weaknesses and more!
Dog Training Advice- Huge Mistake New Dog Owners Make
So, we get our beagle and we name it Snow! We realize it is better to be the one training the dog right? So we look for information on how to train dogs and we follow a program that promotes a training method that will fully train any type of dog in the world! Nooooo!!!! Big Mistake! Bad dog training advice! There are so many garbage training books that try to tell you that there is this one size fits all dog training method that works for any dog. That simply is not true! Well I should say it is not 100% true. Let me explain.
When you first start to train your dog, you should start with basic training. Now basic training methods are fundamental and can be applied to all dogs. These methods are just the general foundation that you build when training your dog and these methods apply to any and every dog. An example would be the positive reinforcement method. This is a fundamental method where you train your dog by praising and rewarding him or her with treats when they complete a task or display good behavior!
Unfortunately these methods are just to general to completely train you pooch. They are not enough to address dog behavior problems, obedience, how a dog interacts with adults, children, other dogs and other animals. You need more advance training methods that are designed to train that particular breed of dog to get your dog completely trained. For instance, Chow Chows are known as one of the most aggressive of all dogs. Labradors however are very docile. So using Labrador training methods to cure Chow Chow aggression will not work. You follow?
I hope you understand because this is crucial. It will be the difference between training your dog properly and failing miserably. I hope you found this dog training advice useful!
