- Not Speak. However, dogs can understand us through our actions, thats their forte! Our actions can train puppies. Just like raising a child, raising a puppy requires our time, patience and practice.
When your puppy makes a mistake, whether it may be peeing where you trained it not to, or barking constantly, do not yell, shout or punish the puppy by putting it back into its cage or outside. Some worse things that can happen are disobedience, and Your puppy will start to hide from you when it feels those symptoms and keep repeating them. Understand the reason why things like this happen. Too much freedom too soon for anyone or in this case - any pet is the reason we have to repent with the bad behaviour.
Here are some tips you can use in order to train your puppy.
1) Create a space just for the puppy. This can be where its home, play area, with easy access to outdoors. This will benefit the owner as it becomes a place that is easy to clean up. This will benefit the puppy because it's part of disciplining and understanding restriction.
2) Create a home for the puppy - This could be a cage, a hex pen (if your house does not have a open area to create space for the puppy), or paper training in a hex pen (if you live in an apartment without a balcony). Then train your puppy to go back to its place, by offering him/her a treat only when it gets in its home. Keep rewarding the puppy as it goes in and use the treat to lure the puppy outside and back inside to get the treat again. Practice this regularly with the puppy until you see him/her get comfortable.
