The Art of House Training Your Puppy

By Jeff Tonnies

You have just brought home a cute little puppy dog and you are ready to make him or her part of your life. This is really a wonderful thing as it is well known that dogs and cats can bring us humans a lot of personal pleasure. It is no wonder that a dog is called "Man's best friend"
It is an established fact now that pets can help us to live longer and create happiness in our life's. We all know that babies need a lot of attention in the early stages of their life as they tend to be a little helpless at first and need to learn some basic potty habits. Of course a puppy is no different to a baby in that respect, they too need to learn how to behave in a household and need to be trained so that accidents can be avoided. Nobody likes these kind's of accidents and the consequent work they create.

Of course the earlier we start the training procedure the faster good toilet and eating habits are established and we have a happy household. Of course their are further benefits in training your puppy as quickly as is possible as this will establish you as the puppies master and your puppy will always look to you for directions instead of being uncontrollable and direction less. This of course is what we want to establish as soon as possible.
It is of great importance to plan your interaction and training procedures early, preferably prior to getting your puppy home. Just as a baby, they learn rapidly and unless you are prepared as a teacher you could just as easily teach your puppy bad habits without ever realizing it.

It is also important to set up an early training schedule for your puppy so that you can control your puppy's eating habits and therefore the potty training times. In the early stages it is also advantages to watch your puppies behavior so that you can fine tune the training schedule of your puppy. Their are many techniques in training your puppy available to you to consider, but it is important to remember that whatever training schedule you adopt, you must be in control of your puppy and this means that you must have the patience to spend your time with your puppy to teach him or her what you want your puppy to do.

Remember your puppy looks to you for directions and so it is important to teach your puppy some basic commands, such as "No" "Stay" "Sit". To teach these commands eye contact is required with a large dose of patients on your part. Puppies love to be praised and so they are no different to you and me in that regard. So you should lavish your puppy with praise whenever your puppy follows your commands correctly, this will quickly re-enforce your puppies good behavior patterns and strengthens the bond between you and your puppy.
