Hello everyone...
I have a website that has an amazing 30 minute audio interview with a master dog trainer.
It has been a great tool for every new dog owner and it will teach you how to train your new puppy and prepare him for proper obedience.
Please look at my signature for my puppy...
Patience is the key here. If you can associate nipping, barking and any other bad behavior to something he doesnt like (putting in a crate or you ignoring him when he wants to play... It reinforces the behavior he has into something negative. Just make sure you give lavish praise when he does do...
You need to understand how a dog learns before you may teach it.
Dogs learn using the "ARC" System
A Association
R Repetition
C Consistency
Dogs Associate you giving him a treat with sitting down. Every time you repeat this the same thing happnds and if your consistent with your...
I went and bought my chocolate lab from a breeder he cost me 500$ less than at the pet store! And the funny thing is... she was the supplier of the petstores in our town.
We got a great deal
I bought my chocolate lab from a seasoned breader and we are in love with him. You can usually see how your puppy turns out when you meet the breeder. We saw the lady and she was the nicest and kindest lady ever. Our pup is great he is 8 months old now...
I totally agree with doberluv,
Three puppies will be a hand full especially from the same crate. You will need proper training and with a cat sometimes it gets harder due to the distractions.
When you have two mates from the same litter you must gradually start seperating them without them feeling to much anxiety. Do it gradually and make sure you don't seperate them for long periods of time in the begining. With time things should be great.
I am not a fan of puppy pads as well in my signature I on that site I show you my system to potty train and house break your puppy very quickly without using puppy pads.
Dogs feel very close to people and you seem like you might have an omega dog...
They are tuffer to train as they are very attatched to things and intimidated by many things. This could be a sign that she misses her so you must be very comforting to the dog and keep a very close eye on him. Do...
As a professional dog trainer what I tell my clients is that you must put your dog on a leash before opening the door and teach him the wait command as well. If he is on the leash you control him.
The leash is a great tool as you have total control of your dog while doing this exercise...
Your puppy might be getting bored. Try to add twists to your training and make things really fun for your puppy. Get different treats use tons of praise and it should work out fine.
This is usually just a phase. When a puppy goes through this phase its like a teenager being rebelious. They seem to want to find themselves and test you out to see what your buttons are. Be firm but dont scoil the puppy. Patience is the key they will come around...
