New Puppy Hints

These helpful puppy hints will help you to connect with your new member of the family.
If you want your new puppy to obey, respect and love you then you need to never, ever ever hurt your puppy. Your new puppy needs to feel safe and secure and if you hit him to punish him he will be to scared to obey you, which could lead to other behavior problems like difficulty in house training. Make sure your children never ever hit the puppy because he is more likely to bite you or them in self defense. Good, simple training can be achieved using reinforcement techniques.

What is “Good Behavior”?
Good behavior is peeing outside, sitting when told to, not barking in the house, etc. Good behavior deserves praise and treats and food is a good motivator. Puppies learn more easily when food is involved because it is more satisfying then toys at that point. Use part of their daily meal so as to not over feed your new puppy, therefore keeping your new puppy healthy while training him.
If you need to punish your puppy do not yell but instead use a lack of attention and a stern voice, with a simple word like “no”; do not use a full sentence as the puppy will learn the sound of the word “no” whereas it can never learn “why are you ebing so naughty and doing that in the house?”.
Puppies thrive on attention so when you don’t pay attention to them that is more then punishment enough.

House train your new puppy as soon as possible. Be consistent! Patience is an absolute must Your puppy needs time to learn so remember; make sure your puppy socializes. This is important because you can have a well-behaved puppy if you get him into some pro-active socializing early on. Your puppy’s most impressionable period, just like children, is when they are young, from birth to sixteen weeks,so make sure you are doing all you can to help acclimate your dog to society during this period, and the training of your puppy needs to occur in this period also.
Make sure you handle your puppy every day, with such actions as brushing, baths, toenails being clipped and ear cleaning. Examining and brushing your puppy’s teeth should be on your list for a healthy dog. Your ultimate goal is to have your puppy comfortable and have him look forward to being handled by you or your children. A stressed out dog is no fun for you or the dog, so make sure your puppy gets used to the attention and at the same time learnins to sit, to stay, and generally respond to your commands. Make sure you use treats to praise your pup for good behavior during this time and always be gentle - they will respond to kindness and care more so then to harsh words and harsh treatment.

Start training your dog not to bite early on in life. Have your whole household be part of this training. Remember, it is natural for a dog to want to bite, but it only takes some simple steps to keep your puppy playful but not dangerous. Try playing with your pooch, getting him to bite you, when he does it too hard say “no” really sternly and let it startle him. Stop playing with him for a few minutes and then start over until he learns to play without hurting you or your children. After practicing this for a few weeks your puppy will quickly get the idea.
Teaching your new puppy what he can or cannot chew is very important. When you catch him chewing on something he isn’t supposed to, say “no” very sternly. Startle him into not chewing on that item. Hand him a chew toy to chew on instead. Praise him for chewing on his toy and he will be more then happy to chew it into oblivion.
Remember to give your puppy lots of love - they need it to grow up happy, healthy and obedient and to become socially acceptable members of your community.
