Dog training is of paramount importance in raising a pet. Learning a basic course of commands not only makes it easier to control the animal, but also establishes good contact between the owner and the dog. In the process of training the dog, the owner himself develops and learns the correct interpretation of the animal's behavior. All this, combined with the obedience of the pet, provides a problem-free tandem - a man-dog.

Instructions
Step 1
Traditionally, at the beginning of the general training course, the command "Sit" is studied. Take the treat in your hand and show it to your pet. Then slowly raise your hand with the treat, slightly leading the dog behind the head. At this point, say "Sit". In order not to lose sight of the treat, the dog will have to sit down. Repeat the command immediately, then praise the dog and give him a tasty morsel. Repeat these steps immediately and after 10-15 minutes. In the future, to consolidate, practice the command "Sit" 4-6 times during the day.
Step 2
The Lie command is learned in a similar manner. Holding the treat in your hand so that the dog can see it, lower your hand in front of the dog's nose to the floor and say "Lie down." Reaching for a treat, she will lie down. Repeat the command several times and give the treat.
Step 3
The “Place” command is very important in everyday life, and should be started after learning the “Sit” command. You can use the dog's home bed or any of your belongings as a designation of the place if the command is practiced on a walk. When studying at home, take a treat in your hand, show it to the dog, and command "Place." At the same time, simultaneously bring your hand to the pet's bed, put a tasty piece on it, repeating the command. When the dog, walking for a piece, is on the bed, praise him and let him eat the treat. Plant her in this place with the "Sit" command and hold it for a few seconds, praise her for her endurance again and release it with the “Walk” command.
Step 4
The command "Nearby" is learned during walks. Take the dog on a short leash and place it on the side of your left leg. With the treat in hand, start slowly moving forward, while showing the bite to the dog and encouraging him to move next to you. Within 3-4 meters at the first lesson, you can feed the dog 4-5 pieces of delicacies, periodically saying the command "Near". It is very important that the leash is not taut when driving. In the future, gradually reduce the amount of food reinforcement, replacing it with verbal praise.
