The training should start for a dog in its earlier stage itself. Training a puppy is easier than training an adult dog. The first basic training is the dog leash training.

Initially you should train your dog to wear a collar. The collar should be of right size. It shouldn’t be too large to come out of its neck or it shouldn’t be too small tightening its neck.

There should be a gap of a thumb between the collar and the skin of the dog. On the very first day your puppy may feel it very disturbed and it will try its level best to remove it.

After a constant number of failures it will give up the try. In a few days it will get adapted to it and will feel comfortable. You have to wait patiently till this.

Then choose a leash to tie to the collar so that you can take your puppy for a safe walk. A leash is a lengthy rope that is tied to the collar in order to have the control of the animal.

You should now train your dog to walk over the leash. Initially it will try run away when you take it outside for the first time. You should make your dog understand that it can go only up to a particular distance.

It should be of enough length that your puppy should feel free to walk. Ignore bad behavior of your dog and never allow yourself to be pulled by your dog. You should stop whenever your dog pulls you.

After you stop walking make your puppy to come near you and then start walking again. If your puppy pulls on the leash again stop do the same again. This will frustrate your dog and it will not pull you.

Finally your puppy should come to the decision that it cannot go far when it is tied to the leash. Constant repeating will make your puppy to understand this.

You should practice your puppy walking on leash at least 5 minutes initially.

Training an adult dog also involves the same procedure. But training an adult dog is more difficult than training a puppy.

So start your training when you bring home your puppy.

Who said you can’t teach an old dog new trick? I have no idea who came up with that quote.

Is that person now famous or something for saying that? Well, that is beside the point. Training an old dog is similar to training a new dog.

Though it may take longer because of its previous habits and ways, it is possible. Nothing is ever impossible. Well, except teaching your dog to fly.

That is impossible. Dogs don’t have wings. I got off subject again, didn’t I? In this article, I will be giving you tips for dog house training your older dog.

These tips may also be used for a puppy as well. House training is a very difficult stage that you go through when getting a puppy.

Since puppies don’t know much, they like to go bathroom wherever they feel like it, which may be on your carpet or bed or both.

An older dog that is untrained will do the same. The best way to stop this behavior is setting a time schedule for taking your dog outside. Start with about every thirty minutes.

Don’t break the time schedule or your dog will continue going pee-pee on your favorite rug. If this does happen, which believe me, it will, soak the stain with a paper towel.

Hold your nose and bring the paper towel outside and place it in an appropriate bathroom place. Have your dog smell it by putting its nose in it.

This will teach them that that spot is where they can go to the bathroom and not in the house. Keep up with this schedule.

Soon, your dog will alert you when it needs to go to the bathroom by standing near the door. Don’t take too long or there will be an accident on the floor next to the door.

This is the most effective way for house training your older dog. I hope that this will not only give you a better smelling house, but a better trained dog. I wish you the best of luck that your dog will truly become man’s best friend.

puppy house training is easier than training an adult dog because a puppy is still learning. If you want to provide your puppy with comfort of his own home within your home, it is advisable to get him a crate.

However, you will need to put in some extra effort to make sure that your puppy gets proper crate training, so that he can realize that his crate is not a prison but a real home for him.

Crate training a puppy involves teaching your puppy the basic commands of getting into the crate and staying there till you call it back to play with you or run about the house.

Crate training is also important, when you are having a party in house or you are leaving house for a few hours and you do not want your puppy to run around creating a mess.

You can begin with guiding your puppy to its crate when you are ready to go out or when you are arranging tables for guests. After a while your puppy will learn that when these things happen, he is supposed to go to him crate.

You can then make use of commands of ‘go home’ while pointing towards and crate and follow it up by ‘stay’. You puppy might start getting into the crate on your command soon, but might not want to stay.

This is where you need a little patience and also need to repeat the ‘stay’ command to make sure that it stays where it is while you walk back to your living room or dining hall to continue with the preparation.

You should always keep in mind that if the crate is comfortable enough, you puppy will not mind staying there and playing with its toys till you are busy with other things or guests. If you puppy is constantly avoiding its crate, you might need to change the crate.
