Training your Golden Retriever Dog to be Obedient
When you first get your new puppy home or even before you get your puppy you think about all the things you would like to do with your new family member. Or you may have taken on an older dog that needs some dog training obedience classes. There are things they will encounter during their lives which dog obedience training prepares them for. Some owners don't have the time or want to go to the expense of doing classes with a whole group of other dogs and their owners at certain times on certain days. They would prefer to set aside time at their convenience and do it themselves.
I would like to share with you some of the benefits you get from the training to see if it is what you and your Golden Retriever need.
Why is Dog Obedience Training important for a Golden Retriever?
An Obedient Dog - is a dog who has been trained. The owner has put the time in. Often we start with good intentions but get lazy and end up with a dog that does whatever he feels like and somehow we think it is the dogs fault for not obeying you. A Golden Retriever learns quickly to clear consistent commands. But just like a child you have to persist until they get it and then praise the behaviour.
You are the Leader -They always want to please you so if you show them you are the pack leader and what you say goes, they will respond and do what you ask. Your role is to dominate at all times so they will listen and respond to your commands. This is especially rewarding when you are in public and you come across a situation where you need to be in control of your dog. Dog Obedience Training will make you feel proud of what you and your Golden Retriever have achieved. Alpha leadership is key to all good training. I highly recommend this product as an easy to use solution to behaviour and obedience training.
Golden Retriever Dog Training is not rocket science. If you use five simple commands e.g. heel, come, sit, stay, speak and quiet that is all you need to have an obedient dog. You can build on these commands later if you wish.
Stop Barking or Biting - these two behaviours are the most common and the most important things to stop at an early age. There are many levels in Dog obedience that teach you about these behaviours and how to stop them.
Lead Walking - Don't you just hate being pulled along with your shoulder just about out of its socket. With dog obedience you will learn how to get your dog to heel, sit and stay. To stop before crossing the road and also to ignore other dogs. There is so much information in this pack that is easy, interesting and simple to follow.
Have everyone at home on the same page
If you are teaching your dog to behave in a certain way it is very important that the rest of the household reinforce your commands. If you say the dog is not allowed on the furniture but your partner or children let him up, there are mixed messages and this leads to inconsistent behaviour. Your dog will revert back to what he knows and all your hard work has gone out the window.
