2. Training commands

The best help pet parents can get is learning how to give training commands. Dog trainers say that many pet owners repeat commands during a training session, especially when they’re frustrated that their pooches don’t respond, but that’s not the smartest choice.

They say it is best to only give a command once, so your canine friend has the chance to understand what you’d like them to do after you give them the first verbal cue.

The reason why repeating commands too many times is not desirable is because it indicates to your pup that listening to you is optional since you’re going to repeat anyway.

Generally speaking, you want your puppy to pay attention to a recall command, such as “come”, so they don’t get into trouble.

Keep in mind that when they’re in a dangerous situation, such as life or death, always use a high-pitched voice to communicate the verbal cue better and help your pup understand that what you say is important.

Many dog trainers say that for best results, you should start using verbal commands when your pup can understand the desired behavior, but of course, that totally depends on your cute pup.
