Is your dog…

• chewing on shoes?
• going to the bathroom in the house?
• nipping at children?
• digging up the backyard?
• ignoring your “come” and “sit” commands?
• barking incessantly?
• jumping on guests and the furniture?

Then it sounds like your dog could use some obedience training. Here are some simple tips on how to control your dog’s bad behavior.

• Spend more time with your dog. You’ll be amazed at how much quality time spent with your dog will affect his mood and behavior — in a positive way.
• Reward and praise your dog for good performance. A tasty treat, like dogdration ice cube all natural dog treats, in your hand while training your pup will give him the incentive to follow your instructions! This will also help the two of you build an amiable friendship, while cultivating good habits in your dog!
• Never punish or scold your dog while you’re training, because a punishment will make him think of negative things when you try and train him in the future.
• Penalize your dog instead of punishing your dog.  A “penalty” can be anything that your dog does not like — a leash jerk, ignoring him, etc. This would make him feel guilty and behave properly.
