If your pet dog has no proper training, it will act just the same with any other animal. Untrained dogs will bark excessively, dig holes, fight with other animals, destroy your furniture, soil your house, steal food, jump up on people and may even bite you. The said dog activities are all normal to canines. What you need to do is to train your pet dog to redirect its natural canine to some acceptable outlets of the society and to prevent behavioral problems.

Obedience training is the best way to solve your pet dog's behavioral problem. It's like communicating with your dog and teaching him what is right and wrong. Through obedience training, a language between you and your dog will somehow be created. With this, the two of you can have effective communication. Effective communication would enable your pet dog to obey some of your commands and instructions such as come here, shake hands and sit down.

Training your pet dog to be obedient is also another means of showing that you are in command. To establish the so-called social hierarchy, you must train your pet dog to be a good subordinate. Dogs take pleasure in responding simple instructions like stand, sit, come, get in and go out.

Other than being able to build a good relationship with your pet dog, obedience training can bring pleasure as well. Beyond doubt you will feel that having your pet dog is truly amusing. You can even permit a greater amount of your pet dog freedom.

So when is the best time of obedience training for your pet dog?

You may start it now. Whether it is still a puppy or an adult dog, it doesn't really matter. Your pet dog's behavior constantly changes. You cannot predict your pet's dog behavior from time to time.

Certainly there are two well-liked and effective method that you may apply for your pet dog training. They are the reward training and the collar/leash training. Reward training is less intense compared to the collar/leash training. In the reward method, the dog will be rewarded or given a simple praise after it was encouraged for doing some of the commands or after it exhibits good behavior. It is important to give some means of reward for good behavior because the learning process will possibly be faster. Also remember that your pet dog can acknowledge the praising you are giving. Reward and praise are important to keep your pet dog's fine behavior.

When time comes there is a need for you to reprimand your pet dog, make sure it is immediate, short and sharp. Steer clear from nagging your pet dog and punish him only when caught doing something wrong. When reprimanding your pet dog, make sure to do it in a nice way. If it has done something wrong then show and teach him the way you want him to do and if he obeys, give him a reward or praise him. In addition, bear in mind to never slap, spank, kick or hit your pet dog. By doing so, you will never earn your pet dog's obedience.
