The first thing a puppy needs to learn is its name. The shorter the name, the easier it is to remember.

_ Call your puppy's name from the beginning.

_ Before you call his name, do something happy with your puppy, so that he will be encouraged to carry out your orders.

_ When the puppy comes over when you call its name, praise it and pet it.

_ If it doesn't come directly, don't scold it-otherwise the response will be slower next time!

Step 2: "No"

From the beginning, you need to make your puppy understand the meaning of the word "no".

_ The word "no" needs to be associated with anything that is forbidden, no matter what it is.

_ The word "no" must be expressed absolutely clearly. Every time you see your puppy make a mistake, you should say "no" very clearly.

_ Your tone should be strict enough so that the puppy will stop making mistakes as soon as he hears "no".

3. Indoor training

Usually, a puppy has not been trained indoors when he arrives at his new home, and will not eat in the rest area. It will be your job to teach it these very important skills.

_ Take your puppy out often, preferably every two hours. If you rarely take it out, the progress of indoor training will become slow.

_ It's best to take the puppy out directly after eating and waking up.

_ When the puppy behaves well outdoors, give it full praise-language and caress.

_ If you see the puppy circling indoors, ignore it until it starts to do other things, then approach it, say "no" firmly, and then take it out. Give it full praise and caress when it comes back from the outside.

_ Finally, please don't forget that no matter where you live-city, country or seaside, you must take good care of your dog!

4. Sit/lie/stay where you are

These three commands should be learned in sequence, so before you start teaching the puppy the next command, make sure that the previous command has been fully understood. Please put on a leash when you teach your puppy these commands.

Sit down:

When the command of "sitting" is given, one hand presses the puppy's hip and the other hand raises its head. Once the puppy does this action, you should give it full praise. You can call it by name or pet it.

Lie down:

Let your puppy sit down first, and then squat down next to it. Gently pull its front paws forward and say the command to "lie down". Similarly, praise and pet the puppy when he finishes the command.

Stay where you are:

First let your puppy sit down, and then add a new command "stay where you are". Leave it. If it stands up or follows you, say "no" to it and return it to the sitting position, and repeat the command of "sit-stay where you are". When the puppy gets used to this command, you can get farther and farther away from it. Of course, puppies should always wear a leash during this training.
