Training
your puppy to be well behaved and obedient is an exercise in patience
and commitment. You need to use care and skill as well as training aids
in your training sessions. There are a number of different dog
training products and dog training equipment which are considered useful in helping you to train
your puppy.
Dog
Training Treats
These
are dog training products that are often used in reward based training.
This is where your puppy receives a reward in the form of dog training
treats
and praises when it has performed the correct action.
Training your
puppy to ‘sit’ or ‘stay’ is accompanied by giving out doggie treats
when your puppy does the desired action without being distracted.
Your
puppy then learns to associate puppy training treats with the commands and
performs the actions required by anticipating the reward.
In this way,
you positively reinforce the behavior with goodies from your dog treat
training pouch or praise that are
given immediately after the action is performed.
Dog Training Crates
Among
the more effective training products is a dog training crate. This is a
crate that is just large enough for your puppy to lie down in
comfortably but not big enough for it to do its business in.
Puppy
training crates are often used for house
breaking a dog.
This is done by
placing your puppy inside the crate with a few chew toys. This keeps
your pet comfortable in the crate but it does not have enough space to
relieve itself when it wants to.
This situation will then
force your puppy to hold it in until you let it out to its potty spot
in the yard or elsewhere for its doggy business.
As puppies need to
relieve themselves at least 6 to 7 times a day, dog crates are ideal
dog training products that you can use to make sure your dog learns to
go potty at regular times in the correct place.
Your home will then be
free from the doggy mess which is quite unpleasant to clean up.
Dog Training Collars
There
are several dog training products that center around using a dog
collar. One of these collars is an electronic dog training collar called a shock
collar that lets out a quick, sharp electrical current to your dog’s
neck.
This electric shock or vibration immediately stops your
dog from engaging in undesirable behavior. However, this dog collar
should be used sparingly if at all with due regard for your pet’s
safety and health.
Another type of dog collar that’s popular
is the leather pull tab collar. This is a leather leash that is short.
By tugging on the leash, you’ll shorten it and instantly control the
amount of freedom your dog has and also its actions.
You must
use this collar with care to avoid injuring your puppy’s trachea and
neck. Don’t tug on the leash too strongly as the idea of this dog
collar is to gently control the actions and movement of your pet
especially in an open space like a park.
Clicker
One
of the most common dog training products is the clicker. This is often
used in conjunction with doggie treats in reward based training. You
click the clicker each time your puppy performs the desired action such
as sitting.
You then follow the click with doggie treats. This
is done so that your dog learns to associate the click with the reward
which is a doggie treat. Gradually, your pet can be trained to behave
correctly with just the clicker.
You can easily utilize a few
dog training products that are effective in helping you in your dog
obedience training. Doggie treats and clickers are useful in
reward based dog
training programs. You can use a dog crate for housebreaking
dogs.
Using these dog training supplies should help make the training process easier.
