PUPPY TRAINING 101

Training your puppy at the right age is a very important part of its upbringing so that it grows up to become a well mannered & understanding dog.

In this article, I have addressed some of the most critical concerns faced by new puppy parents, which include training, behaviour, and socializing.

1 SETTLING YOUR NEW PUPPY

Ensuring that your puppy feels comfortable & secure in your home is your prime responsibility. Initially, avoid physical contact with too many people as your puppy is likely to feel unsafe. Introduce him to every room of his new home as well as your normal daily activities.

2 TOILET TRAINING

Even before bringing a puppy home, you must decide a place where you want him to potty and pee. Take him to that place immediately after meals, after he wakes up from a nap, or after any form of excitement/play.

Also, notice when a puppy is eagerly sniffing a certain spot. These are events when your puppy is most likely to want to pee or poop. Slowly, he will instinctively learn to go to this particular place when he wants to pee or poop.

Don't be harsh on puppy for littering in wrong places. Instead, move him away from the spot, clean it up, and don’t allow him to go near that spot again for a few days so that he doesn't make that place his new potty spot.

3 EARLY SOCIALIZATION: MOST IMPORTANT PART IN A DOG'S LIFE.

Socialization doesn’t mean that you simply leave two puppies alone to play with each other. It has to be done in a controlled manner and requires your complete involvement. Introduce your puppy to different people, animals, and birds too.
