Alaskan Malamute Training - Four Tips For Success

By Abigail Fischer


The dog can make a fantastic addition to the family. Much in the same way that you would train and correct children, you will need to do that for your Alaskan Malamute too. How can you expect them to behave if you have not trained them what that means? Read on for ways that you can start your Alaskan Malamute training.

- Enable your four-legged friend to socialize since it is an important part of training. Some poor pet behaviors happen when dogs have not been introduced to new people (including children), other animals or a variety of settings. Helping your pet become comfortable with new happenings reduces the chance that your canine pet will fear or act aggressively in a new scenario. Start socializing your four-legged pet as soon as you possibly can and continue doing so all through his lifetime.

- When training your canine companion, make certain to enforce all commands you give. Do not repeat them over and over until your furry pet obeys. Issue them once firmly and be sure that your canine follows through. Don't let your canine neglect a command or else he'll think that you're not serious and will disregard most of the training session. Follow through is key to training.

- Reward your canine friend whenever he displays desirable behavior but do so only from time to time so as not to condition him to expect always. Food is one of the best positive reinforcement tools available to the owner in the Alaskan Malamute training process. Rewarding a dog with treat after he has behaved pleasantly can make him understand that the behavior delights you and earns him reward hence will repeat it when the opportunity comes. Praise, toys, playtime and affection can be invaluable tools too so attempt to vary the reward to make the training more exciting.

- Always conclude a training session with your furry companion on a positive note, even though you must adjust the scenario to make your four-legged pet successful. Ending a training session soon after a disciplinary action will mean that your pet will remember the session as being about punishment, not about training.

The dog in your life is very important to you. Your relationship will only be helped by having good training and discipline now. You can focus more on having fun with your dog when you aren't always concerned about what trouble he is causing. Use the tips from this article to get desirable Alaskan Malamute training result.
