Sometimes, you will have to leave your dog home alone. Help him to feel comfortable alone by leaving on
television or radio for company. Leave an adequate amount of food and water. Don’t forget to leave lots of doggy toys for him to play with.
You may be having trouble training your dog. Maybe he’s not responding to your commands or seems to be ignoring you. Or maybe housebreaking is backfiring and your dog is having accidents all over house. These may be signs of a medical condition. Be sure to visit vet regularly to rule out things like loss of hearing or bladder infections. Always be sure your dog is healthy, happy and well cared for.
If you feel this job is too big for you or you just want some additional instruction or behavioral training for your dog,, there are many reputable professional dog trainers and obedience schools. Do some research and ask questions to find right school for your dog.
Most importantly, you must be a responsible owner in order to train them properly. If you want your dog to trust and respect you, you must do same in return. Never hit, kick, or slap your dog. Include your dog in family outings and games and general family life. Do not play aggressive games with them as this can cause them to behave aggressively. Reward good behavior and yet do not spoil your dog. Remember, if you practice lots of patience, love and respect for your dog, you will receive same from him.
