Training Overview
Helpful hints from Animal House Pet Care and Training Center
Barking
Excessive barking is a symptom of a problem that needs to be addressed-both for you, your dog and your neighbors.
Running, Chasing, Escaping
Running, chasing and escaping behaviors are one of the most dangerous to your dog.
Hyperactivity, Nipping, Jumping
Often dogs exhibit their exuberance for life by playing a little too rough, nipping or jumping up on people and things.
Aggression and Fighting
Because aggression is so complex, and because the potential consequences are so serious, the Humane Society of the United States recommends seeking professional advice on how to modify the behavior.
Crate Training
Crate training is important because it allows you to teach your dog good habits and curb destructive behavior, from digging and chewing to house soiling.
Housetraining Hints
Consistency matters when housetraining your puppy - you have to be disciplined and consistent in your behavior and habits so your puppy can learn from you.
