Top 5 Tips to teach your dog anything

We’re going to share five tips which will help you get better faster results when you're trying to teach your dog anything.

1- First don't expect unrealistically fast results adjust your mindset be prepared to be very consistent and give your dog your undivided attention for the first year of training the slower you go the faster your results will be focus on getting rough drafts of the thing you're trying to teach your dog over the first few weeks then focus on polishing those behaviors in a variety of different circumstances over the next several months tip .

2-You won't have linear progress just because you have a good training session with your dog on a particular thing doesn't mean that they will now do that thing every time you ask them to forever do you ever remember learning a new math equation in class understanding it and then getting home and forgetting how to do it completely your dog goes through the same thing just remember that your dog needs time for new concepts to sink in .

3- Never blame your dog if you find yourself blaming your dog a lot that means that you are making too many mistakes not your dog stop and think about how you can break your training down into smaller steps and set your dog up for success tip .

4-Dogs learn best after exercise particularly if you have a high-energy dog understand that you need to get rid of that energy before it's realistic to expect them to absorb new concepts there's nothing wrong with your dog if they're energetic that's how we made them to be good workers and have the energy to last all day so we have to counter that in our more laid-back culture today by exercising them so that they can more easily comprehend new things tip .

5- Be flexible, things will rarely go exactly as you plan for example maybe you and your friends are planning a camping trip and you're excited to hang around the campfire with your friends and your dog but in reality when your dog sees the campsite they get freaked out by that campfire and they want nothing to do with it .
