In the article we will tell you what is important to consider in raising a puppy.
At what age should you start raising a puppy
Some experts recommend starting training dogs from 6-7 months. However, according to experienced breeders, many dog breeds are ready for training as early as 3-4 months of age.
Puppies lend themselves well to training, are quickly trained and remember commands well. They grow up smart and obedient dogs.
What not to allow a puppy
It is unacceptable to use physical violence, you can not constantly shout at a small puppy; it is impossible to pull objects or toys out of his mouth by force; small children should not be allowed to carry a puppy in their arms; you can’t wake up a puppy that is sleeping abruptly, but it’s better not to wake it up at all, but wait until it wakes up.
How to tell a puppy what not to do
When the dog makes an attempt to eat a piece of food, you need to firmly and loudly say “No!” and pull on the leash. Repeat the process until the behavior is fixed. As soon as the puppy understands what the “no” command means and fulfills it, you should treat him with a treat.
How to calm a puppy when he is mad
If the puppy is furious, overexcited, running and barking non-stop and you want to calm him down, do not run after him and do not try to grab him (the puppy will decide that this is a game and continue to be furious). To calm your puppy, sit in a calm, confident position and breathe deeply.
