a puppy
Instructions
Step 1
It is easiest to train a dog in any command at an early age, even as a puppy. Do not teach your pet the command to "sit", it is much easier to first learn to "stand". Do not reward your dog when he is sitting opposite you, only if the dog is near your leg.
Step 2
Remember that you can work with a three month old puppy only for a couple of minutes, with a five month old puppy - three or four minutes, with an eight month old - seven or eight minutes. Try to stop exercising before the dog gets tired. Stop lessons when the dog is still interested.
Step 3
Praise your pet, give him a treat. After class and immediately before them, do not pay attention to the dog for 15-20 minutes. In this case, the dog will look forward to learning, the lessons will seem more interesting to him. Try not to say too much during class.
Step 4
All your speech should be limited to commands. Be relaxed and calm. Invite the puppy to your place. Show your pet a treat and lift it up, forcing the dog to stand up. Once he's done, give him a treat. Repeat this several times to help your dog learn the lesson better.
Step 5
Now let the puppy stand a little longer, and only then give him a treat. In order for your pet to take the desired position, he must change the position of his head. Move your hand in front of him with a treat, when the dog takes the correct posture, say the command "stand". The dog will now know this command.
Step 6
Repeat these steps several times to help the puppy remember the command better. Take the dog under the neck and step back with one leg. In the future, when performing this command, back off with one and the same foot so as not to confuse the dog. If the puppy stays in place, put your leg back and give him a treat.
Step 7
If the dog does move, repeat these steps until the dog can stand still. Then step back, but don't hold the puppy. Return to your original location and give your pet a treat. Move away from the puppy and wait a little, only then return to the place. Your task is to achieve a stationary stand from the pet in the right position.
Step 8
Give the dog a treat if it stays where it is. The dog should be stationary for about two or three minutes, give the command "wait". Repeat these steps several times for the puppy to learn this command.
