Start young. If you train a puppy early, they’ll develop good habits and know what’s expected of them as they grow into friendly, sociable adult dogs.

Develop a regular training routine. Puppy training is most effective when you commit both time and patience to help your puppy learn.

Make puppy training interesting for both of you. Dogs have a short attention span and it will be more fun for you too.

Forget the importance of structure. Set a regular timetable for walks, feeding and training to help your puppy learn.
