Setting up a training environment

1. Grab it slowly. Dogs have a short attention span, particularly puppies, and are easily
distracted. During the preparation process, keep this in mind and remember that you
will have to take it easy at first. To encourage him to completely concentrate during the
training sessions, give your dog breaks.
2.Select an area that is suitable. The training environment should be an atmosphere
that is relatively free from obstacles that the dog is familiar with.
 An indoor space can be a perfect location where you have greater control over
the degree of operation of the dog and can limit it to concentrate its attention
more.
 Be sure to let other people in the house know that you will be practicing with the
puppy, so that disruptions that may conflict with the training session are not
added.
3.Avoid running where necessary outside. A lot less regulated setting and far more
distractions are provided by outdoor training sessions.
 Outdoor conditioning therefore restricts the ability to confine the dog and
thereby protect his concentration.
 When you have to exercise indoors, you will either need a protected place to
deter your dog from taking around or use a control leash. This will significantly
restrict the usefulness of strategies for preparation and can make it much more
difficult to practice.
4.Read the attitude of your puppy. Take a break if your dog continues the training
session strongly, paying attention to you, listening to your instructions and engaging in
the training, but then tends to get frustrated. Maybe your dog is feeling overwhelmed.
To begin with, you can need to find a less stressful atmosphere or make your training
sessions shorter (5 minutes instead of for example, 10 minutes).
Using the Trick or Treat
1. Get a selection of small treats. Because during training you are going to give
your dog several treats, you can go for very small treats. You should also use
nutritious human ingredients, such as bits of apples, peas, green beans, or
chicken, that are safe for dogs. You will be able to find a low calorie or diet
reward if the dog you are dealing with is overweight, or can use individual bits of
diet dog food.
Often verify and ensure that human food is healthy for dogs. There are also foods
which can be dangerous to dogs, such as bananas, raisins, chocolate, onions, or
avocados.
2. Capturing the interest of your puppy. The first step, as with the training of all
habits, is to get complete attention from your dog. This is better done by posing
with him facing you right in front of your dog, so that he is fully focused on you
and can easily see and hear you.
3. Show a reward for the puppy. Keep a treat in your palm to make sure he knows
you've got it but just to make sure he can't nip it off your hand. He's going to be
very confused as to how he can get the treat from your side. You need to have
his full attention now.
4. Shift the reward away from the muzzle of the dog to the back of his head. Hold
the reward really close to the muzzle of the puppy, then lift it gently over the top
of his head. With his eyes and nose, he will obey the procedure, gazing upward
and placid in the process.
 You will need to keep the reward close enough to the head of the dog so that
he will not want to run up to reach it. Hold it low enough that he'll be lying on
the deck.
 If the bottom of your dog doesn't hit the ground entirely, you can support by
softly easing it into a full sitting posture while holding the medication in the
same position.
 If your dog attempts to back up and pursue the reward instead of lifting his
head and relaxing, attempt to begin with the treat trick indoors in a corner.
This will restrict the potential of the dog to step backwards, which can make
sitting easier.
5. When the dog lies, say sit" and reward him with a treat. When the rear end of
your dog makes contact with the deck, say "sit" in a firm voice, and give him the
treat as a sitting reward immediately.
 Attempt to restrict the verbalization. Do not say "no, sit" or add any orders if
the dog does not sit right away. The command word will stand out more
plainly to your dog if you reduce the voice to both the command and the
praise.
6. Praise the behaviour of your puppy. Strengthen the compensation of care with
praise; touch his head and use words like "good boy" This reinforces the fact that
you were impressed by what he did. Each when the dog finishes the sitting activity
during the training session, do this.
7.Release the location of the sitting dog. By using a command word such as
"release" or "free", you will release your dog from the sit command by taking a step
back and allowing him to come to you.
8. For 10 minutes, repeat the trick. He may get bored after a while, so take a pause
and start training another day. Target at least 2-3 brief daily training sessions. For
your dog to catch on, it would possibly take 2 weeks of consistent teaching.
9. Your dog is weaning off treats. Offer your dog a treat each time he sits when you
first start practicing for the treat trick. Make sure that you also still give enthusiastic
encouragement. For a week or two, give the rewards intermittently while the dog is
reliably sitting for treats, but continue to offer encouragement. You can (slowly)
focus on getting the dog to sit without treatment using the hand signal and the "sit"
order, and with just the "sit" command.
Physical instruction offering
1. For rambunctious dogs, use this form. This technique is used to allow you more
control of the dog you are dealing with, and it is most appropriate for dogs who are
very busy.
 Maintaining discipline through the use of a collar and belt and strengthening
good attitudes are the secret to dealing with unruly dogs. Bad habits can be
ignored during training; you are promoting them if you respond to them.
2. Place a leash on your puppy. You need the attention of your dog and for him to
keep in order throughout the training session. Using a leash will help you do this
and keep it close to your hands. You will also use this strategy to train the dog as
long as he sticks by your side, although you strongly chose not to operate on a lead.
 Keep the leash tight because the dog is attached to you, but not so tight that
it is painful for him.
3. Stand beside the dog and inspire him to sit down. By pressing very softly on the
region immediately above his hind legs, you can help him get lower from the
standing position to the sitting position. At first, he may be puzzled, but after a
second, he'll get the idea and sit down.
 Do not push a sitting puppy. Pushing him too hard could frighten him or
injure him.
 Never beat the dog or spank him. You're not going to tell him how to sit like
this you're just going to teach him how to scare you.
 If the dog battles you and refuses to sit, try to walk him around a little on the
leash to "reset" the sitting session, and stop trying to ease him back into the
seat.
4. Say 'sit' while the floor is touched by his bottom. Hold your hand in place for
about 30 seconds so that the sitting posture is aligned with your order.
5. Repeat your gentle sitting session. For each good sitting attempt, you can
replicate this procedure a few more times, rewarding and encouraging your
puppy. For as long as possible, continue directing him to the sitting posture with
your hand until he learns to sit with only your voice order.
6. Modifying environments. You should attempt to switch to a neutral surface that
your dog might be more relaxed on if your dog is regularly resistant to the sitting
posture. After giving your dog a "quiet time" period, you should even try to take
a break and try again later.
7. Be insistent. It will take weeks of experience with an especially enthusiastic dog
before he gets the hang of sitting on orders. Try to keep calm and speak in a
calm voice to help soothe your dog and speed up this process. At a time where
obstacles are reduced and after the dog has had enough of exercise and is
ideally less energetic, you can even consider scheduling the training hours.
8. Practice an unassisted order to sit. When your dog is sitting with your help daily,
it's time to do it without your help. With your dog still on the lead, while your
dog is standing without using your hand on his lower back, practice saying "sit".
Initially, any time he sits on command, he starts to praise him, gradually
expanding to where he sits on command without needing a treat.
Praising the Natural Behavior of the Dog
1. Using this approach on elderly dogs who are calm. For a puppy, this approach is
less likely to be effective, but works well for older dogs that have a more relaxed
attitude.
2. Work in a friendly setting with your puppy. In a home atmosphere with few
distractions, it's best to initiate your dog's training. Function in a relatively confined
area indoors but encourage the dog to travel freely about.
 Mind that this is a time to practice and not simply to watch. You should stay
cool and strive not to change the normal actions of your dog.
3. Observe the dog until he lies down. Do not do anything to coax your dog to sit
down, but allow it to walk about easily until it is seated on its own.
4. Tell "sit, sit!" "And automatically reward the puppy. The minute the dog's bottom
sinks to the ground, make sure that you say "sit" and offer the award. Talk in a
polite tone and plainly. By setting him on his head and saying "good boy!" or giving
him a little treat, praise the puppy.
 Stop screaming in a harsh voice at the dog. Dogs do not respond to negative
reinforcement well.
5. As much as possible, repeat the workout. You'll have to exercise regularly in
order for your dog to learn to equate the act of sitting with the word "sit," For
half an hour to an hour, try remaining next to your dog, using the above strategy
to teach your dog any time he sits.
6. When he sits, say the dog "sit". When you have taught the dog effectively to
understand what the word "sit" means, whether you ask him to, focus on getting
him to sit. Reward him straight away because he follows the orders. Keep
learning until, without having a treat, he can sit on order.
