Puppy Obedience Training Tips #1

*Name Game: Here is a game you can play with your dog that is designed to get a quick response - an instant head turn in your direction when your dog hears his name:

• Say your dog's name - when he turns his head say "yes" (or click if you are using clicker training)
• Give him a treat that you are holding against your leg
• Toss a treat away from you and say "Get it!" to set up next repetition
• Keep each session short - no more than 5 X per session - practice 3X day at beginning
• Reward with a treat or toy or alternate between toys and food if your dog likes both

• Never use your dog's name if you are saying "no" to him - his name should always mean good things!
