Home Dog Obedience Training
Starts Communication
Home dog obedience training allows you to take those first few steps with your pet into the world of understanding between the two of you.
Whilst initial dog obedience training will probably not solve every issue of behavior you have with your dog, it certainly starts the process of getting your dog to understand you better and respond accordingly to your commands.
Dogs Will Misbehave
After all, if a dog misbehaves it is not because they are bad, they are just acting like dogs and according to their nature.
Dogs will try to eat your furniture, jump up, climb on furniture and do their toileting in areas you do not wish them to.
The real issue is how you tackle behavioral problems and what better way to start than to follow the teachings of a well respected home dog obedience training program like Sit, Stay, Fetch.
It is important that you are the one training the dog.
We do not believe in sending your dog off to be professionally trained by a stranger only for you to have problems when your dog returns, as it cannot recognize the tonality of your voice in giving commands.
Who Is Top Dog?
Once of the most important ground rules to establish with your pet before it will accept home dog obedience training is the social pecking order.
We certainly do not mean that you will need to take harsh steps in order to force your will onto your pet, more the cultivation of an unspoken understanding that you are top dog and in the animal’s terms, pack leader.
By recognizing the dog’s submissive behavior with praise, the animal will become open for additional home dog obedience training and additional steps can be taken.
Certain breeds, however will only acknowledge one “big dog” in the house and the owner’s spouse or children may be ignored if they attempt to give the animal a command.
You Can Teach An Old Dog New Tricks
You have probably heard the old saying that ‘you cannot teach an old dog, new tricks’ we believe you can. But only if you follow a structured and well laid out home dog obedience training program.
But obviously, as with all things, the sooner you start the better and no better time to start than when the dog first enters your house.
