1. Reward: Firstly, let me sound this note of warning, never reward/praise your dog when it has done nothing that deserve that, got that. Only reward your dog when it does what you ask of it and make sure you reward it immediately and if it is correction make sure you do that at that instant, doing the correction at other times may confuse your dog.
2. Slow and steady: some one said "slow and steady wins the race." In dog training, you have to take the commands slowly and one by one. make sure it masters one command before going to another. Then continue to mentally challenge your dog during the process of training.
3. Timing: Time and accuracy is another essential thing in dog training obedience for example, do not try to correct your dog if it is not in the act of unacceptable behaviors. Late correction will only succeed in confusing your dog, so make sure you always watch out for this whenever you want to reward or correct your dog for anything.
