Dog Training Techniques – A Quick Overview

Article by Marc Bach

Many people love the idea of owning a dog but one thing that they have to keep in mind often times, is that the dog needs to be trained. While the pet may look heart-breakingly cute when it’s in a shelter or at the pound, picking out the dog is only the first part of the relationship between dog owner and the animal. Many people don’t understand that they have to put time and effort into socializing the dog.

An unsocialized dog will intimidate others, tear up the home, and will create an environment that can become so bad that the it will have to be returned.

Dog training techniques?

What is your option on clicker training, traditional dog training, and their methods? What methods do you use to train your dog?

Potty training puppies is one of the most important jobs dog owners have. It’s an essential skill your dog should learn very early in life, especially if you want your own life as its owner to be a lot less stressful.

Of course, the first thing you should realize before training is that your puppy is a baby. It doesn’t have full control over its own bowel movements, and it will need time and practice before it learns when and where to do its business.

It’s something normal that young puppies bite everything around them, hopefully we have puppy training. Biting can be avoided with proper training. Biting for puppies is a second nature, but when dogs are around people we have to teach them what’s right and wrong. We don’t want puppies to accept biting and then when they grow up wound somebody. One of the things any dog owner has to do is train the dog to stop doing it. No one likes a biting dog. Puppies can’t actually hurt a person, but they can instill fear of dogs into a child.

One of the things you have to teach your puppy first is the simplest commands like sit, stay, come… These will come into handy when training other more difficult things. The most convenient time to teach a puppy is when it’s still young. If your puppy still bites even when it grows up, you run the risk of your animal injuring somebody. You don’t want to get your dog put to sleep because of that.

Adam,

I received a surprise Christmas present last year in the form of a 4 year old female shepherd mix that my wife and daughter decided I needed to replace my long time pet who had to be put down last summer. She really is a beautiful dog, but the shelter fibbed to us when they said she was good with other dogs and cats. She has been rather aggressive with them. We are 6 months into this relationship now and she is much better. I guess she is more secure now.

The one problem I have not solved is her desire to run out the door and ignore our “come” commands. All this is to ask you: Will the techniques in your book and video series work on an older dog? I’d rather not invest the money in a lost cause. We live in the Arizona desert and she won’t last long this summer if she gets out and runs off again. I’ve looked through many of your newsletters, but didn’t find any mention of age.

Clicker training for dogs has been used for many years. Professional animal trainers do this by training animals to do a desired behavior with the use of positive actions. Operant conditioning means doing a positive act that can be pleasing for the dog after successfully doing an action. One way of doing this is to reward the dog with delicious food right after it successfully does a trick.

A clicker is simply a gadget that is carried by professional dog trainers. It is used every time the dog is given a treat for his successful actions. A clicker makes the dog recognize the sound of the clicker as a time for a treat. This will indicate that the clicker sound is a sign that he has been a good dog. Since the sound that a clicker emits is faster than words, it is very effective.

Being a dog owner for over 30 years has taught me a thing or two about patience when training a dog successfully. I definitely learned the hard way. Nowadays we have great resources such as: Cesar Milan (Dog Whisperer), the internet and so on. But still many people struggle everyday with their dogs and their dog training awareness.

 Half of the journey is learning a great deal about yourself as well. For instance, how reaction driven peoples’ minds really are. When dealing with successful dog training techniques, keeping your emotions – like excessive yelling in check plays a big role.
