Dog Training - What is the Best Dog Training Techniques?

By Rikard Ingvarsson

Dog has been the true friend of human beings since time immemorial. In the ancient time, the early man made the dog his first pet animal. Definitely, he had found some special characteristics in the behavior of the dog which made him confident about his services towards him. So we can easily accept that the dog is the best companion man can ever get. That is why, even in the present, we keep dogs in our house as our pet and feel confident about the safety and security of our life and property.

We share some sentiments with our pet that's why we try to treat a dog with utmost care and attention. The owner of every dog has some special attachment with his pet. For this reason, he wishes to train his dog in the best possible manner. Either he sends his dog to a dog training school or engages an experienced trainer at his own house to train the dog. Whatever be the mode of training, you have to be a bit careful and attentive to the whole process so that you can also train your dog by yourself.

If you talk about the best dog training techniques, there is a contradiction to this term as dogs have different levels of intelligence and understanding. Therefore it is found that if one method is effective for one dog, it doesn't work upon the other dog at all. That doesn't mean that there is something wrong with your dog. Indeed, it is not always possible to find the best technique for all the dogs on this earth.

The following tips are believed to be fruitful to your dog as these are the basic guidelines for training a dog at any place. I believe these tips can do something positive for your dog:

  • You must be very realistic to judge your response towards your dog.
  • Do not punish your dog for a right or correct response. Also don't reward him for any wrong action or response from his end.
  • Always remember to call your dog by his name in order to increases the attachment between the man and the animal. As a good result of this action of yours, your dog will start attending you immediately.
  • You should always be quite and calm with your dog. You should be kind but firm. You should not punish your dog for no reason at all.
  • Do not shout or speak loudly with your dog. Always try to be quite and composed when you are enjoying the company of your dog.
  • Put stress on pleasing behavior of your pet and don't forget to reward it for its compliance and good behavior.
  • Always maintain the time schedule of the dog and the trainer. Try to maintain a good and healthy condition at your place where the dog stays. So our job for grooming a pet dog continues as ever.
  • You should take care of all the requirements of the dog and also try to fulfill them as quickly as you can.
