Can someone give me tips on training puppies please?
Posted on Jun 19, 2010 under training puppies | 6 CommentsI just got two puppies, they are half lab, half pug….seriously.
but anyway, my mom wants to kennel train them for when we’re not home.

Make sure yo uare repetitive and never yuse the kennel as a punishment or they will not go in it. Staart them off a little at tiem with a hour or two so they can get used to it. Also try putting some toys ortreats inside and leaving the door open so they can socialize themselves with it. Work your way up to more time and maybe put comfort items liek a blanket they sleep on inside the kennel.

lots and lots of treats when they do good.
i got a puppy like 6 months ago and im still training him…
but when they don’t listen at first and won’t come right away, when they do come, praise them if u yell at them then next time they will take longer to come because they don’t want to be yelled at again…
and i used those puppy pads and they really worked……

Use positive training methods. Give them a treat if they do something right and ignore them if they do something wrong. If they’re chewing something you don’t want them to, don’t look at them, say drop it, and take it out of their mouths. If you’re planning to put them in a kennel, be careful. Puppy manners can be destroyed in kennels.

try to keep them enclosed in one room at first, so they can get used to being out, but still be in an enclosed area. use a room that they are in a lot, but doesn’t have to much breakable or valuable things. see how they do, and if they do well, reward them. make shorrt trips out first, just to see how they do, and check up on them every once and a while. if you have a crate for them, keep them in there when they do bad, but when they do well, let them stay out and reward them. dogs don’t like being locked in their crate, so it is a good punishment for them, but it won’t hurt them. also, before you leave, make sure they do their business so they don’t go in your house. make sure they have water available in the enclosed area, because they might start scratching your door or something because they are thirsty. leave them some chew toys in that area also, so they dont chew your furniture. have the lights in that room off or dim, so that they might go to sleep and not run around a lot. new puppies are kind of hard to train in this, but take your time and i hope this helped!

That is certainly some inspirational stuff. By no means knew that opinions could possibly be this varied. Thanks for all of the enthusiasm to offer you such valuable info in this article.
