Got a Puppy?
- Choose a method for training. There are many options out there for different approaches to training, so learn more about them and find the one that fits your philosophy best. Legend Acres training philosophy is bond based fear free force free training.
- Put together a training schedule. Puppies get tired quickly and lose interest, so it’s important to have a plan for short training bursts when they are younger. Keep yourself accountable with a schedule. Legend Acres fundamentals course provides you with a daily check sheet to keep you on track.
- Set a training frequency. Start with many short training sessions every day and increase the length of time as they age. This will help wear them out physically and stimulate their brains. Training sessions should be short 3-5 minutes at a time and no longer than 20 min a day.
- Pick your basic commands. It’s important to decide which commands to focus on first and choose the words you will use. Everyone in the family should be aligned because you want to be consistent. Legend Acres Fundamentals Course covers language, communication as well as common mistakes with commands we use with our puppies leading to confusion and a pup who is not willing to do
- Stay firm on boundaries and rules. Once you are in training mode, you must stay consistent with the dog. Pick a spot where they go to the bathroom, determine where they can play in the house, and stay firm with those rules. This is something that is difficult to establish but once you do you will see the benefits when your pup starts to make the right decisions!!!
