Puppy Training Classes

Puppy Training Classes

It's always worth taking your new dog along to puppy training classes. These classes are designed to train the new owners as much as the puppies but that in itself will serve a valuable function.

Your new puppy will also be exposed to other dogs - lots of them usually - but in a controlled environment. This is a vital way of socializing your dog and allowing them to figure out their place in the big natural order of things.

Dogs are pack animals and a young puppy exposed to "a pack" at an early age will develop in a more natural and balanced way. The easiest way to find a pack for your dog to hang out with is to joint a puppy training class. Some dog trainers even run a "puppy playgroup" or "puppy kindergarten" for this very purpose.

Puppy Ads

Puppy Ads

Are online puppy ads a good way of finding a new puppy. In general they are. You can source a breeder for the kind of puppy you are looking for - and the puppy ads help you in this process.

Many breeders choose to place puppy ads on websites shortly before their litter of pups is available for sale. Some websites list new puppies for sale but by the time their information reaches the search index the puppies have already been sold. The information relating to puppy ads changes frequently so you can be sure that if the breeder is advertising puppies for sale then you will have a good chance of getting the dog you are looking for.

Puppy Potty Training - How To Potty Train A Puppy
By Amber Lowery

One of the first hings you do with a new puppy is get your new puppy potty trained. Thankfully, potty training your puppy doesn’t have to be that hard. This article will show you some tips on potty training your puppy.

First, you need to understand that puppies are like babies and they simply make mistakes because they don't know better and can’t understand their urges. Your puppy doesn't mean to ruin your good carpet; he simply doesn’t know that he has to go potty.

A puppy’s ability to feel the urge to go potty develops as they age, much like children. You can help your puppy potty train faster by developing a schedule for your puppy to follow. Take the puppy out to go potty at the same times every day to allow the puppy to become accustomed to a schedule.

Especially if you are not always home during the day, you can expect there to be accidents while you puppy is potty training. You can help minimize the mess by putting down newspapers for the puppy to relieve himself on, but it will take additional training for the puppy to know this is for emergencies. When accidents happen, don't get angry - just clean up and disinfect the area.

You can learn to notice some of the signs that your puppy needs to be taken out for a potty trip. When you see your puppy acting up in a certain way, it may be time to take them out to relieve themselves.

Here are some signs that a puppy needs to go potty:

* Showing Restlessness

* Sniffing at a spot they had previously soiled

* Puppy is Whimpering and wining

* Puppy is distracted from play

As each puppy is different, you will soon learn to recognize the signs in your dog. When your puppy starts to show this potty signal it is time to take them out for a walk and direct them to go in the place you want them to use.

When your puppy does good, remember to praise him. Praise displays to the puppy that they have done the right thing and will make them happy to do it again to seek more praise.

Although potty training your puppy can be dificult, it is just a matter of being consistent and patient with your new puppy long enough for their minds and bladders to mature and train. With patience and time, your puppy will potty train and accidents will be a problem of the past.

Puppy Training Advice

Puppy Training Tips - Teaching Your New Puppy
By David Sacco

House training a puppy need not be that difficult and can actually be enjoyable.

Playtime with your new puppy can be fun,but did you also know that it could be the first steps in your puppy's education as well? Even in the wild, young wolf cubs learn about their world through play and your puppy is no different. By utilizing play as a tool you can effectively teach your pup all the basics that will help her be a well-behaved dog when she grows up.

There are three basic things that a puppy - even one as young as six weeks old - needs to start learning. The first and most useful of those things is simply the word, "No." You will be using that command repeatedly during your relationship with your dog and so it is very important that he knows it from the start.

And it's easy. Dogs, even puppies, are adept at recognizing tone of voice. When they learn to associate a displeased,forceful tone of voice with the word no, you will not in the future have to be so forceful in your utterances.

But first you do have to get his attention. When the pup does something wrong, simply pick him up, gain eye contact and tell him very firmly,"No." It will get an immediate reaction. Depending on your pup's personality, he will drop his head and become sheepish, growl or attempt to talk you out of it by asking you to play. If either of the latter two happens, you will have to repeat the command to show that you are not kidding.

Then, simply let it go. Put the pup down and keep a watchful eye on his response. A rebellious pup may repeat the action as a way to test you, in which case you need to repeat the process. Be gentle, but be firm and consistent and your pup should get the message.

As for the other things that your baby needs to know, you will probably default to teaching him the proper way to go potty.This is actually easier than you might think, as pups are a lot smarter than they look. Timing is, however, everything.

If you notice a puddle on the floor and your pup has since gone off to play with his ball, the only thing you can do is clean it up andwatch him more closely. Don't rub his nose in it, or he will simply be hurt and confused. What you want to do is catch him inthe act.

When you see him start to take a tinkle, grab him and take him outside. Chances are he will be so shocked that he will save some for the yard, and when he goes there you can praise him lavishly.

The third thing that your pup needs to know is that he should never put his teeth on a human being. This is a tough one, as it is so much fun to play "bite" with a youngster. But when they are older, you really don't want them to play so rough. So when you play with him, be sure to do so with toys that are okay for him to bite. If he bites when you are trying to pet him, tell him no and give him his toy or put his toy right in his mouth.If he persists, pick him up and tell him no. If you are consistent, you should get good results.

When your pup has accomplished learning her first command, or goes outside instead of on the floor and stops puppy-biting, she is well on her way to graduating from puppy to a well-mannered adult.

Puppy Training And Puppy Play – The Importance Of Socialization
By Brigitte Smith

Puppy training is often considerably easier than training anadult or adolescent dog. One reason is that the puppy isessentially a “blank slate”, untroubled by past trainingtechniques and other issues. Another more indirect reason isthat you are probably more likely to spend more time and havegreater patience with your new puppy than you would after the“novelty” has worn off somewhat. And it tends to be human natureto have greater patience with young (dogs and people), since weknow that they’re inexperienced in life and they’re usuallyeager to learn.

In other ways, however, the puppy can be a little moredifficult to train than an older dog. One challenge to traininga new puppy is that puppies are more easily distractible thanolder dogs. Everything is new to a puppy, and every newexperience provides a new chance for distraction. For thisreason, it is best to keep training sessions short when workingwith a puppy, and to end each training sessions on a positivenote.

It is also important to allow the puppy plenty of time to play,and to interact with other puppies and dogs. Socializationtraining is vital to making your new puppy a good caninecitizen, as dog aggression is a growing problem in many areas. Aproperly socialized dog learns how to play properly with otherdogs, and overly aggressive play is punished by the other dogsin the play group.

This type of play learning is something that happens amongsiblings in litters of puppies. As the puppies play with eachother, they learn what is appropriate and what is not.Inappropriate behavior, such as hard biting or scratching, ispunished by the other puppies, by the mother dog, or both.

Failure to properly socialize can be a major problem with yourdog, and it is an important reason for always buying from aresponsible breeder, and never taking your puppy home before heis 8 weeks of age. A large proportion of this importantsocialization experience occurs in those last weeks with thepuppy’s mother and siblings.

A responsible and experienced breeder knows this, and willnever allow prospective puppy owners take puppies home until 8weeks of age, but it is nevertheless a very important and usefulfact to be aware of yourself.

Unfortunately, many puppies are removed from their mothers andsold or adopted before this socialization has fully occurred. Inthese instances, even more than ever, puppy play sessionsinitiated by you are a very important part of any puppy trainingsession. Most good puppy preschool training programs providetime in each session for this type of dog interaction.
Introducing your puppy to new experiences and new locations isalso an important part of puppy training. Teaching your dog tobe obedient and responsive, even in the face of manydistractions, is very important when training dogs and puppies.

One great way to socialize your puppy both to new people andnew dogs is to take it on a trip to your local pet store. Manymajor pet store chains, and some independent ones as well, allowpet parents to bring their furry children, and these stores canbe great places for puppies to get used to new sights, soundsand smells. Of course you will want to make sure the storeallows pets before heading over, and you will also want to keepthe visits fairly short, both for your puppy’s sake, and inconsideration of the pet store personnel.

It is important for puppy owners to structure their pet’senvironment so that the puppy is rewarded for good behaviors andnot rewarded for others. One good example of this is jumping onpeople. Many people inadvertently reward this behavior becauseit can be cute. While it is true that jumping can be cute for a10 pound puppy, it will not be so cute when that puppy has growninto a 100 pound dog.

Laughing at your puppy, or paying any attention to him at allwhen he jumps up, will be interpreted as a reward by your puppy– he will learn that he will receive attention from you when hedoes this. So be very careful not to confuse your puppy. Thereare two strategies for undesired behaviors – firmly saying “No”to your puppy, and/or ignoring the behavior completely. For“repeat offenders”, the ignoring method works best, as it ispossible that your puppy will be interpreting ANY attention(even you saying “No” to him) as a reward for the behavior.

Conversely, of course, good behaviors should be rewardedimmediately (either with treats or simply with lots of attentionand fuss – saying “Good boy” in a very positive tone of voice,and stroking your dog at the same time is often just as wellreceived as treats are). This type of positive reinforcementwill result in a well behaved adult dog that is a valued memberof both the family and the community at large.

The positive reinforcement method can also be used in pottytraining the new puppy. Teaching a puppy to use a unique surfacesuch as gravel or asphalt is a good technique. The theory isthat the puppy will associate this surface with going potty, andtherefore be reluctant to use other surfaces (like your kitchencarpet for example) as a potty. Many puppies can, with a littlepatience, be readily trained to use the same spot for toileting.This is a great technique, as it will train your puppy to go “oncommand”, and will save you having to scour the back yard whencleaning up after your puppy.

Puppies open their eyes at different times

2008-06-29T09:54:00.000-07:00

When do puppies open their eyes?

Different puppies open their eyes for the first time at slightly different times. There is no simple answer to the question of when to expect the first glimpse of those adorable pupils looking up at you.

All puppies are born with their eyes closed but in most cases your puppy will open its eyes by about day seven to day fourteen. If you notice swelling around the eyes or any bulging around the eyelids then it can be a sign of infection and you can either ask your vet or very gently open the eyelids yourself. Sometimes you might need to use a cotton wool ball dampened with warm water to help the puppy open its eyes.

If yous see yellow stuff or pus when the eyes open then this is a sign of an eye infection and you should see a vet for some treatment.

Rarely the eyes fail to open even after fourteen days and if this happens then you should take the puppy to see a vet for a check over.

You can find other more detailed answers to the question when do puppies open their eyes on wikipedia or on the yahoo answers website.

How to Pick a Puppy

How to Pick a Puppy
By Marjory Ramsay

Picking a dog with the right temperament and character starts with choosing the breed of puppy that will best fit with your needs and your lifestyle. Every breed of dog has its own quirks and instincts that are simply part of the way that breed are. They can't help it - it's quite literally in their genes.

If you want a dog that is easy to train and good socially then don't pick a puppy akita, malamute or chow chow. You'll end up with the opposite of what you want and need.

If you want a highly responsive dog on a walk don't pick a beagle pup. If you want a quiet slow and calm dog then most definitely don't pick a border collie.

No matter what breed you think will suit it's really important to do extensive research into the basic genetic nature of the dog. Be very suspicious of any seller or breeder who won't or can't talk in depth about the bad points of their dogs as well as the good points or highlights. They should know the breed drawbacks inside out and be able to discuss them in detail with you.

But beyond the basic breed nature you also need to think about the mental soundness of individual dogs. This is particularly important for very young puppies or rescue dogs. If you feel uncertain about doing this yourself then take a more experienced dog owner with you when you go to pick your puppy. You might even pay for help from a dog behaviour expert or dog trainer. It's a big decision you are making and it's important to get it right.

Or - and this is important too - make sure you see your puppy in his or her litter before you choose. You should also try to see the father and the mother dog if you can - although with the father dog this is not always possible.

When you pick your puppy you should try to avoid the obvious bully in the litter or the natural victim. Don't choose a puppy that seems excessively nervous or one that doesn't show interest in playing or interacting with other dogs or people.

Take you time choosing and you will have a wonderful pet to look forward to. Get it wrong and there's plenty of time to regret it.

Ask the breeder about the nature and temperament of the parent dogs. These and a hundred other questions are relevant and important. You've got to get it right at this stage - both for your sake and for the puppy.

Do your homework. Read up about the breeds if you know what they are? Think it through in advance and you'll end up with a great pet. Rush things and it could all go terribly wrong.

Dachshund Puppies

2008-06-26T22:51:00.000-07:00

Dachshund puppies

In recent years miniature dachshund puppies have become popular as pets and are now highly sought after.

The name dachshund means badger dog and this reflects their original purpose - they have been bred for their small size so that they could hunt in small underground spaces. They are still used as working dogs every day in parts of Germany and in Eastern Europe. They live for up to twenty years and are very popular as pets - particularly for those who live in city center apartments or in homes with limited space available for dog exercise.

Dachshund rescue centers in Michigan and elsewhere have become increasingly common in recent years.

Bernese Mountain Dogs

2008-06-26T22:04:00.000-07:00

Bernese Mountain Dogs

Choosing a Bernese Mountain Dog Puppy

These dogs make great pets but beware - they do grow large as adults. In appearance to the casual observer they look a bit like the better known St Bernard. The puppies are cute beyond words. As an adult they weight up to ninety pounds and grow to seventy centimeters in height. Some owners report behaviour problems with Bernese Mountain Dogs but this is probably no greater an issue than with many other similar breeds.

Brittany Puppies

2008-06-24T11:05:00.000-07:00

Brittany puppies were previously known as Brittany Spaniel puppies.

The breed started in North West France and is based on the fougere - a type of early spaniel with white and black markings although some also had liver colours. They are a small spaniel breed. It seemed to have developed from cross breeding between the small french spaniel and English pointers or setters.

They are about 50cm in height and weighs about thirty pounds. The coat is flat with a slight wave and they are usually orange, liver or black with white spotting.

Brittany spaniel puppies are great pets but do remember that they are primarilly working dogs so are very lively and need a lot of exercise.

When is a puppy fully grown

2008-06-23T16:43:00.000-07:00

When is a puppy fully grown?

How will you know when your puppy has reached the end of its growth curve? It all depends really on the breed of dog we are talking about.

Some of the smaller dog breed puppies are fully grown before one year of age - other larger dog breeds may not reach their fully grown adult size until perhaps closer to the age of two.

Most vets will have puppy growth charts to allow prediction of puppy size and eventual growth patterns. These charts will help you to predict when your dog will reach its maximum size. You can also look up these charts online by a quick google or yahoo search.

Puppy weight estimates

2008-06-23T16:04:00.000-07:00

Puppy weight estimates are something that vets take into account when they are deciding how much medication to dispense for your pet.

Estimating the weight of a puppy can be done by several methods. An experienced vet can make a good judgement just by picking up your dog. Other more techical methods are available including quick measure scales and charts prepared breed by breed for all dogs.

A puppy weight estimate is not as good or accurate as a full and formal weighing but of course this is not always easy or practical with a lively and active young animal.

Puppy Horoscopes

Free Puppies to Good Home

2008-06-23T15:11:00.000-07:00

Free puppies to Good Home

We've all seen the ads haven't we. But what do you do if you want a puppy? How do you pick the best puppy for you and your family. Should you spend money or should you take a risk on a puppy given away for free?

There's no such thing as a free lunch the old saying goes - well maybe there's no such thing as a free puppy.

Choosing the right puppy for your needs is the first and most important step when you buy a dog - or are given a dog for your family. There's a lot to consider. Is the breed the right one for you and your family? Too large, too small, too boisterous, too domineering, too timid? You've only got one chance at this so it's important to get it right.

In general you should beware of the "free puppies to good homes" adverts. Firstly you don't know the history of the dog, its parents or its breeders. Secondly, there's no comeback if it all goes wrong. Thirdly - if the puppy has been mistreated or if there has been inbreeding then you could end up with an animal with very significant behavioural problems.

Now, of course, you might hit it lucky and end up with a wonderful and loyal pet. But hey - it's a bit chance and you could also end up with a demonic creature which wrecks your house and at worse injures you or your family.

Take time and weigh up your options carefully

New Puppy

2007-07-20T12:22:00.000-07:00

New puppy? You need some support and information. You've just got your adorable little bundle home ..... help? It's not that bad.....honestly!

Remember that your new puppy has been part of a large family group and is now on his own. During the first few days he'll wonder where his 'family' has gone but you can help here.

You probably think he needs peace and quiet. Fair point, but he has been used to a lot of action and noise in the first 8 weeks of his life. One way you can help him to settle into your home is....think like him!

Many people think cages or crates are cruel but puppies love them. It's their space, they feel safe and most of all it's a safe place where they can't harm themselves. Balance this with normal play time and your pup will be happy.

Like babies, puppies like noise. A quiet radio on during your puppies first few nights in your home usually works a treat. Help....Terry Wogan at 2pm!! Nightmare. A soft light also helps. Please don't think you're helping you're puppy by sitting with him or NIGHTMARE....taking him into your bed. He needs to settle and from day-or night- one you have to help.

Be firm and give him lots of attention during day light hours. Come night time.....harden your heart!!

Puppy Kibble

2007-07-10T07:45:00.000-07:00

Puppy Kibble is the name given to the food specially designed for puppies up to the age of two years old, depending on breed size. Puppy kibble is designed to meet your puppies nutritional needs during its rapid growth period.

People frequently ask me why puppies can't eat adult dog food? The answer is simple. You wouldn't feed a baby chips, would you? Of course not. Babies are fed suitable food for their delicate digestive systems and a puppy is no different.

Puppy Kibble is formulated to provide higher levels of protein, vitamins and minerals than adult dog food so don't be tempted to feed your puppy food that will do little to encourage his growth.

Poodle Hybrid Puppies

A Poodle Hybrid is a cross between a poodle and another dog breed. Poodle hybrids have become popular pets and play a big roll in the current designer dog trend. Poodle hybrids are generally recognised as good domestic companion or pet dogs. Part of this popularity is due to the poodles intelligence and non shedding coat.
