Discover How To House Train A Dog Well In Just One Day
House training is a very important phase in a dog's life. It secures a tight bond and healthy relationship between both dog and the master. Expert dog trainers advise that house training should take place during a dog's puppy years. Your dog's bad behavior will be easier to correct as he gets older, because obedience training took place during the time he was most influenceable to following commands. Therefore, the sooner you learn how to house train a dog, the more successful you'll be training him.
Here are some basic rules on how you should begin to house train a dog.
Give Him His Own Space
The untrained puppy or dog should not be allowed to roam around the house, without any supervision. You may not know it yet, but your pet may already be chewing on unsafe things and worse, may get themselves injured or electricuted. If you are at home, make sure to keep him in a place where you can see what he's doing. If there ever comes a time that he'll be left alone, make sure to place him in a den or crate. Give him a bed of his own that may include a blanket or pillow , some toys, and a bowl for both water and food. Let him have time to play freely, so he can get enough exercise.
Introduce Him to New Areas
After you have trained him how to behave in his own space, it is now time to introduce him to other areas of the house. Make sure to spend quality time with him in each new area. If you want to show him a new spot where he will eat, do it under your constant direction. Familiarize him to each section of the house, and make known what he is allowed and not allowed to do in them. Do this by leashing him, so as to limit his movement. Unchain him when you think he's gotten use to the new areas. But, remember to keep an eye on him or else he might get into stuff and cause mischief.
Potty Train Him
Take him to the place where he can releave himself. Be careful not to confuse him. Never permit him to romp in that area or he may think that he can use the same place for everything he does.
Let Him Understand The "No Chew" Command
By nature, dogs love to chew on things, since it helps in the growth of their teeth and gums. It is also sort of a healthy activity for their jaws. Part of training your dog is supplying him with things that he may bite on, and let him understand that not all things are good for strengthening his teeth and gums. Be rigid as you give him the "No chew" command. Applaud him whenever he does obey and give him a reward.
Set Off Limit Areas
It is imperative that you keep your dog away from any area that has furniture or electrical wiring lying on the floor. Give him the "Out" command and when he does leave without hesitation, gently pat him on the head showing your proud.
Again keep in mind, the sooner you begin, the more well behaved your dog will be when he is around other people. Dedicate a hour or two towards house training your dog and you'll both be happier for it.
