Positive Reinforcement During Training

Dogs will work hard for a reward-a treat, a favorite toy, playtime, cuddles, and lavish praise. If you using treats for your training your pet, you should keep these important pointers in mind:
l  The treat must be your pet’s favorite so it would be enticing and irresistible for him. You may have to try out several types of treats to see which works best for your pet.
l  For training, choose bite-sized treatsand these should be quite soft so it will be easier for him to swallow and get his attention back to you. Don’t choose a treat that he has to chew for several minutes for this can interrupt the training process.
l  Use several of his favorite treats. Dogs love variety and can get bored with they are given the same treat.
l  When giving a treat, always accompany it with lots of praise using a happy voice.
Don’t hesitate to call your vet Lakeville, MN if there are sudden changes in your pet’s health and/or behavior.
