Basic Principles of Canine Obedience TrainingDog obedience training is an essential for dog owners to help their animal to be a better companion, to get along well with other dogs and humans, and to not engage in destructive or poor behaviors like chewing, barking, or "going" in the house. The instructional process should begin with puppy obedience training for maximum effectiveness.The Basic Dog CommandsDog training has a common and structured vocabulary of short, easily understood commands.ComeEvery dog manual will tell you that the proper way to make your dog "come" is to call it by its own name. Pick one name for your dog and use it consistently until the animal recognizes that the word belongs to him. Talk to the dog. Praise him with his name, call him with his name - and always make eye contact when you use the name. Dogs are highly intelligent animals and learn their names quickly with positive reinforcement.HeelTo teach your dog the heel command, get some dog treats first. Hold it in front of your dog's nose. Say "heel" and hold the treat near your hips. This could take several attempts. Every time the dog successfully heels down, praise him accordingly.SitThis command is more efficiently learned with the use of a dog clicker. Hold the treat above the dog's nose then slowly, bring it back over his head. Say "sit" to the dog. When his bottom touches the ground as he goes for the treat, use the clickers and give him the treat. Practice daily.StayThe "stay" commands starts with the "sit" command. Ask your dog to "sit," then count two seconds so the dog can hold the position, then you can give him the treat. Practice regularly and gradually increase the length of time the dog holds the position.While obedience training large dogs may be harder than teaching smaller ones, the basic commands are the same.
