Positive Reinforcement Training Techniques
When training a puppy, positive reinforcement techniques such as using treats, praise, and toys to reward good behavior are highly effective. Consistency, patience, and clear communication are key to successful training. Avoid punishment-based methods, as they can lead to fear and anxiety in the puppy.
Potty Training Tips
Potty training a puppy requires a consistent schedule, frequent potty breaks, and positive reinforcement for successful elimination. Use a designated potty area and supervise the puppy closely to prevent accidents. Clean up accidents with an enzymatic cleaner to remove odors and discourage repeat incidents. Gradually increase the puppy's access to the rest of the house as they demonstrate reliable potty habits.
