Keeping it
Simple When Dog Leash Training
When
dog leash training puppies my recommendation is to be brief. Puppies
have a very short attention span. A pup learns only while he is paying
attention to you, so it does not accomplish anything to keep on
training when he is mentally tired even though physically he is still
very lively. Five minutes at a time is long enough. With many puppies,
two minutes is long enough to begin with, gradually moving up to five
minutes.
Getting a puppy is a wonderful experience. However, it comes with
certain responsibilities and duties. First and foremost,instead of
carrying them around in dog strollers or just placing them in dog
cages, puppies should be trained well right from the beginning in the
basics of house living so you do not have too much trouble with new
addition. These would include commands such as ‘come’, ‘sit’, ‘beg’,
‘lie down’, ‘roll over’ and so on. Dog leash training is also one of
the most basic parts of dog training books.
Walking the Dog
Unless you live on a ranch, using dog collars and leashes are necessary
when you need to take your dog for a walk once or twice a day so it
gets the required exercise and it can relieve itself outside. A certain
amount of discipline will be needed from the dog if you do not want to
be running after it and screaming at it everytime it wants to chase
something or someone. This discipline while walking on a leash is
called dog leash training.
The Best Time to Start Dog Leash Training
The training of a puppy should start ideally when it is about 6-7 weeks
old. The best and fastest way to get good results is to use the
positive reinforcement, i.e. everytime it performs well; it should be
praised lavishly and/or given a small treat. The positive reinforcement
method works much better than any other method available for dog leash
training dogs.
Location, Location, Location
Dog leash training should be started in friendly and known environment;
otherwise the puppy would be too busy inspecting the new place to
listen to what you have to say. The best place would be the front of
your house, or the backyard. For dog leash training use a nylon
lead for the first time which is light and yet strong enough. Sometimes
a choker collar would be good to keep the dog from pulling on the lead,
though the best would be gentle tugging with a stern command.
Best First Steps
As mentioned earlier, the best way for dog leash training is the
positive reinforcement method. You walk in front of the dog and call it
to you. When it comes, you give it a treat and praise it. Keep
repeating this process while gradually increasing the distance you have
the dog walk with you, along with you. Everytime, in your dog leash
training session, it does it without pulling or staying behind you
reward it. It will surely take time and patience, but it will be fun
for you and the dog.
