All children love pets and they would love to have a dog if their parents will let them. A dog can be troublesome so many parents try to avoid their kids enthusiasm for pets. In the end the kids may win the argument but it takes a while for them to convince their parents.
Having decided on getting a new dog you need to think about the type or breed of dog you would like to get. Dog rescue pounds often have several lovable dogs of all types and they want to find a home for them.
A new puppy in your home will probably mess because it is scared. Suddenly you begin to understand that having a dog means it needs house training. Dogs are clean animals so they don’t want to mess near their bed so you must choose the right area for your dog potty training.
Your new dog does not yet know what is right or wrong and it is probably nervous as well. Make your puppy feel safe and at home but watch for signs that it needs the potty area. When it does things right give it a lot of affection and tell him what a good dog he is.
Your dog will need a lot of reminding and practice but they are usually pretty quick to learn things. Be very patient and don’t get annoyed about accidents as they will happen and are not done on purpose.
If your puppy needs to get to the potty area he should be able to easily reach it to be successful. When he does give him lots of affection and congratulate him to show what a good dog he is. Once your puppy understands what to do he will be eager to do it right and be praised for his behaviour.
There are lots more lessons to come later but first you need a house trained dog. A puppy will enjoy being trained to sit by your kids. Put kids and dogs together and they will play for hours and practice their lessons you have taught them.
When your dog is trained to sit and stay on command you can develop the training to include other, more complicated, lessons. Teach your dog how to behave on a leash and make it understand it must walk to heel at all times.
Your dog must not run off to look at new things so it is important you teach it to stay with you.Your dog will love all the new smells and things to examine but you must teach it to wait for your command before it runs off.
Some people love dogs but not everyone does so you must train your dog not to jump up at visitors and strangers in the street. Don’t let your dog lick people’s faces because some people find it a very unpleasant experience.
Owning a dog brings responsibilities to keep it under control as well as bringing a lot of fun and happiness to your family. You must prevent it being a nuisance to other people and make sure it is obedient to you.
