3 Rules for Training Your Dog

When training your pet, here are 3 simple rules to follow:

1. Keep it short. When first starting out, training session should only be between 5-10 minutes long. Shorter sessions ensure that you have your dog’s full attention.

2. Start with the basics. Before teaching your dog special tricks, be sure he knows how to sit, lie down and come when called.

3. Reward your pet’s efforts. When your dog performs a command correctly reward him with either praise or a treat. This will help your dog learn that training is fun!
