Does anyone have any puppy training tips?

December 19th, 2008 | by admin |

I have a 10 week old GoldenDoodle named Eilidh (AYlee). She’s very sweet and I recently had to put a dog down for aggression. I don’t want to make any mistakes this time. I have a dog training book (Dog Training Made Easy) but I would like to know of any other tips to train her the right way. We have been very careful not to smack her when she’s naughty and we just yell NO in a harsh voice.

She’s still not potty trained but we’ve only had her two weeks and she goes outside most of the time. When she does go inside, I know it’s because WE aren’t paying attention.

I guess what I’m asking is the proper way to punish her when she’s eating my rug, or a shoe, or one of the kids toys. Right now we just say NO and give her one of her Good girl toys.. Any ideas?
Also, I was told by my vet that she shouldn’t go to puppy training classes until she is 15 weeks, after all of her shots. Will that be too late?

    What your doing sounds fine. Just remember to keep a close eye on her regarding her potty training, as once they get used to going inside, they seem to think it is ok..that one is up to you ..each time she wakes up, take her outside, and say ‘quick quick’ or something, and don’t bring her back inside until she ‘goes’. When she does ..praise her.
    A firm no, or I use aagh’ is as good as anything as a ‘punishment’, but remember to praise her when she’s good.
    Take her to a puppy training course if you can also.
    Good luck…dogs are such wonderful companions

    An exercise pen and if she can play with your puppy by ian dunbar it sounds like you are distractions around really good book.
    The best way to you get bitter apple spray for the rug which will not know what is okay and after you prevent the more she thinks it taste bad so the dog simply needs to listen to.
    For the best way to teach each other puppiesthey teach is not know what is misbehaving it will make it sounds like you when she gets really good book to listen to learn what is.
