Any member of the family isHouse of standards of conduct. The same applies to the pet, regardless of its size. An uneducated and not trained animal will sooner or later become the cause of the conflict either with neighbors, or with passers-by, or with other dogs. And to answer for all this to the owner.
When to start
Educational processes - the introductory stageTraining. Begin to introduce them puppy is necessary from the very first days of his appearance in the house. Give the baby 2-3 days for acclimatization in the family to understand that these are native penates that do not threaten anything. And then start showing who is the boss in the house.
The dog by its nature submits to the leader. You have to become a leader for your pet. Persistent, strong, strong-willed, but not a monster. You can not shout at the little one, let alone beat, so as not to disturb something physically, and not to break the animal psychologically. Why do you need a tail-ponying individual who is described at any threat. The animal must trust you and obey out of respect and love, and not out of fear. Training of the baby should be in the form of a game, without pressure, at ease.
For six months of life the puppy is able to learn to resort to hearing his nickname. Stop any action when the owner said »Fu!» And already decide on the place for the toilet.
Basic rules of training
• Study your dog: features features of the breed, character, psychological and emotional warehouse, to know how to find a common language with it.
•? Create a game and study. In the assembled state, everything is quickly absorbed.
• Develop a team voice, but do not scream, then do not have to scream all the time.
• Pronounce commands clearly and once to get them to perform the first time.

What and how to learn
Small dogs will have a basic set of commands:
• to me;
• To sit;
• lie down. This team should soothe the dog, so after a successful performance, not only give her a tasty encouragement, but also stroke. In the future, this is a good service - for example, visiting a veterinarian and Haircut dogs Will become less stressful for both the dog and its owner;

Training Techniques
Necessary set for classes: Muzzle, the collar is soft and stern (for large dogs), a long and short leash, a mat for locating the place and a favorite toy of the pet. The principle of training the teams is the same, so we will consider in detail the technique of teaching the animal on the example of the command »? Poison ».
A dog on a short leash at his left foot. You hold the leash with your left hand at the collar, and the right - the rest of the leash. Give the command and start walking. If the dog overtakes you, precipitate it and repeat: »? Poison ». If done correctly, stroke it with your left hand, praise: »well done, close», treat yourself to a delicacy. The same team work out when driving straight, with a turn, stop, return. The dog should always be no further than the left knee.
When working out the command »To me», make sure that the approach to you is not associated with the dog with a negative (fastening the leash, punishment, shout), so as not to fix the fright.
Methods of training
Initially, it was believed that dogs only recognizeForce, therefore, approaches to training were developed through pain, fear and suppression. In our time there is another view of this animal, taking into account its feelings and moods. Accordingly, the methods of training based on mutual understanding of man and dog, their love and respect are applied. Emphasis is placed on approval, the development of stable positive emotions, and not oppression of the individual.
In addition, teaching methods are divided into:
• voice - when commands are given by the voice of the master (instructor) and the dog's reaction to intonation, timbre and emotional coloring is developed;
• sound - when in class is usedClicker. The device presses, on the button which beeps, during the training associated with the animal with positive emotions and the desire to repeat it.
The main thing is not to be afraid of your pet, but sincerelyLove him, and he will answer you in return and do everything for you. And in the case of lack of time or lack of confidence in their abilities, you will always help with training expert dog experts.
