Basic commands
You can teach a puppy at home without a trainer:
- “Sit” - we raise our hand at the smell of a treat, the puppy sits
- “Lie” - from the “sit” position, lower the treat to the floor
- “Come to me” - move away from the puppy, call by name + “come to me”, encourage
- “Give me a paw” - tickle under the paw, the paw will rise, give a treat
- “Place” - put on a bench and give long-term encouragement
Rules: exercise for 5-10 minutes several times a day. Always end on a positive note. Don't blame yourself for failure.
Frequently asked questions
At what age should training begin? From 2-3 months - simple commands (name, to me). From 4 months - basic course. Don't wait a year.
When does a puppy need teethers? From 3 months, when teeth begin to cut. Without them, the puppy will chew everything - furniture, shoes, wires.
Do you need dog training courses? Not necessary for the basics, but useful for socialization with other dogs. Especially for problem breeds (Bull Terrier, Rottweiler, Staffies) - a dog handler is needed from an early age.
