Owning a new puppy can be very exciting. But if you do not take the correct steps to train it that cute little ball of fur can turn your life into a nightmare. Proper puppy training must begin immediately. The sooner you start to train your puppy and let them know what you expect of them the sooner your puppy can become a loving member of your family. Most of what you expect your puppy to learn you should teach them before they turn 1 year old.

First, one of the most important and basic things to train your puppy is where they are expected to go to the bathroom. In the dog world this is usually referred to as house training. How you do it can differ from puppy to puppy. Some dogs go on a schedule. Some people walk their dogs after they have eaten some people have their dogs trained so they let their owners know when they have to go out. Some dogs respond to questions such as do you have to go make good dog? Some families have dogie doors installed in their homes and this can work well. Whatever method you choose make sure you start early so your puppy can become a productive and loving member of your family.
How to Find Puppy Information
Secondly, you want to train your puppy to walk on a leash or walk next to you without a leash. You want your puppy to know you are in control and not drag you all over the place when you walk them. It is also important for your puppy to know how to stay next to you when you walk them without a leash. You want to be in control of your puppy at all times.
Third, teaching your puppy to sit, stay and drop is very important. You want to be in control of your puppy at all times and if they can follow these three simple commands you can control your puppy whatever situation you may find yourself in.
Fourth, teaching your dog to fetch and release is important to teach your puppy during their first year. If you are going to play with your puppy and exercise them teaching them to fetch and release is most important.
Fifth, you want to teach your puppy not to jump. This goes for jumping on you or guests in your home. Nothing scares visitors more than visiting someone who has a dog that is not controlled and jumps all over them
Sixth, if there is more than one dog in your home you want to make sure early that your puppy learns to share. That goes for food and toys. You do not want your dogs fighting over these things.
Lastly, and maybe most important you want your puppy to know that you are the boss. There is nothing worse than homes where the animals run the house and they have no respect for their owners.
