There is a lot of dog training information available. You will find
everything from training a new puppy, to dealing with a barking dog, and just about everything in between. This information will indeed be helpful and necessary if you have a new puppy in your home. Many people believe that they can housebreak a puppy by "rubbing their nose in it" when they have had an accident. This does not work. All it really does is scare and humiliate your best friend and can actually make the problem worse. The key to housebreaking your dog is to designate an area especially for this purpose. You should bring your dog to this area frequently at first, eventually they will have success, and you should praise him for it. Whenever you dog is successful in using the designated area, you should offer him a treat. Each and every time you bring your dog to the correct area, you should use a keyword. Eventually your dog will associate this keyword with what your expectation is. If your dog has an accident, you should bring him immediately to this spot, and use the chosen keyword. Remember to be patient because this will take some time. Training a dog to stop barking can at times be complicated, and quite time-consuming. One of the most important things to be remembered is to not reward your dog for barking. This will only reinforce and encourage the barking. Continuing to yell at your dog to be quiet may seem to your dog to be the answer because you yourself are barking back. Proper socialization, a bit of obedience training, and the right amount of attention at the right time can help curb a barking problem. There is plenty of information available about this problematic issue. The most important thing to remember once again is to be patient because this will take some time to correct. Many dogs enjoy digging and this is especially true for Labrador Retrievers. There many reasons that a dog may dig. Some of these include boredom, need for warmth or cooling, shelter, and even natural instinct. Although your dog does not see anything wrong with this, you certainly will. If you have a large enough area in your yard, you may choose to designate a specific spot where your dog is allowed to dig. If this is not the case, there are quite a few techniques which will work to keep your dog from digging. When you spend time with your dog, and you see him begin digging, try spraying him with the hose, and firmly telling him NO! Another method that seems to work for many dog owners is to bury several inflated balloons in the area where your dog generally digs. When your dog begins digging, the balloons will pop, and startle your dog. This will generally be enough to make this behavior undesirable.
