 The desire to have a pet dog for your enjoyment and
security and as your home companion does not end with merely buying a
new puppy or a grown dog in the market. It involves some systematic and
rigorous training to make the puppy or grown up dog to behave in gentle
and proper way, differently in different circumstances whether the dog
is eating or sleeping, walking, urinating or barking which should be
according to the situation and environment and according to the owner’s
instructions. Some areas where basic training of dogs play important
role are,
 Basic Training for barking
- stop barking unnecessarily and bark at the appropriate time
- not barking loudly to create nuisance to neighbors
- barking in different volume and in different style according to
the situation
- not barking at the look of other dogs
- not barking loudly at the strangers who visit the house without
knowing the presence of the dog
- not biting the strangers without the order of the trainer
- stop doing unwanted acts at the simple command of the trainer
Training during walking
The proper training of dog can be done easily while taking the
dog for a walk with you.
Every day morning take the dog out along with you for a walk of
one or two kilometer And while walking you must ensure,
- The dog walks with you in the same speed as you walk and
going to your left always and it does not bark unnecessarily
looking at the passers by in the road after getting
excitement.Walking is the most essential training for a dog
since it comprises of obedience and respect, and other behaviors
are taught to the dog only while walking daily on a regular
basis. The dog should be trained to perform certain basic
exercises while walking so that it attracts the attention of
others. The training of dogs requires much dedication and
patience from the owners because the owner is responsible for
every act of the dog which may put the owner sometimes in a
delicate and embarrassing situation.
- Particular training is to be given to the dog in a regulated
manner so that the dog urinate and defecate at the proper
designated place or outside the house without making any
unwanted problems for the owner. Normally the dog should be
trained to defecate in the side of the road while going for walk
in the morning.
Training for personal and house security as a guard
The dogs are essentially brought up in the house for the
protection from the thieves and unwanted persons .The training
of dogs for the purpose of protection and security is to be done
professionally.
First and foremost is that the dog should be made aware of the
house it is living. For that purpose every day the dog should be
taken out and while returning home the dog should be given the
command “Get in” and the dog should enter the house without the
direction of the owner. If this is practiced for a week
repeatedly then the dog or puppy can identify the house easily.
Praising the dogs for its good work and good habits will improve
the performance of the dog.
