Coach Your Pet Dog!

By Sue Twiggs


The process of understanding by experience in a dogs life is inactive during the initial stages of their lives. Scott and Fuller, two research professional of the study of dogs figure that sense, motor organs and brains of the puppy are usually not developed right after they are born and they cannot therefore be trained anything perceptible during this period.

Erroneous assumptions on the part of dog owners include severe spanking or hitting of their dogs when the dogs act contrary to what they want. While it is good to communicate any dislike of an action to the dog, hitting it too hard may defeat whatever lesson it is that you are trying to teach them.

Between three and five weeks of age, puppies are nave and are openly friendly with strangers. Puppies are naturally playful creatures and tend to extend this trait to anybody outside the home. However, a puppy begins to be wary of strangers after the fifth week and until it attains the age of fourteen weeks.

Dogs are pretty much like flowers because they tend to flourish under constant display of affection and care. There is a great deal of difference between a dog that is always carried and cared for within the first eight weeks of its life and the one that isn't.

Dogs are inclined to chew valuable household items into stumps or bits. Having a dog as part and parcel of the home can be extremely bothersome if you lack patience and an acute sense of humor. Be sure to purchase chew toys for your dog in order to prevent it from chomping on your things.

Despite the fact that dogs are intelligent creatures, you can easily confuse them especially when you give them a lot of toys that are alike in size, color or shape. Make sure you buy a few different toys for your dog to chew on. If your dog loves digging into old shoes or something similar, buy toys that resemble its preference to discourage it from making a meal out of your shoes.
