Dog Training
Dog training: the process of teaching a dog to perform certain actions at the behest of somebody in response to certain commands which the dog is trained to understand . It is a general term not describing by itself either what or how the dog is taught.
Basic Training :
Most dogs, no matter their eventual advanced training or intended purpose, live with people who want them to behave in a way that makes them pleasant to be around, keeps them safe, and provides for the safety of other people and pets. Dogs do not figure out basic obedience on their own; they must be trained.
The hardest part of training is communicating with the dog in a humane way that he understands. However, the underlying principle of all communication is simple: reward desired behavior while ignoring or correcting undesired behavior.
Basic pet obedience training usually consists of 5 behaviors:
- Sit
- Down
- Stay
- Recall ("come" or "here")
- Close (or loose-leash walking)
- Heel
Basic training classses:
Professional "dog trainers" train the dog's guardian on how to train his dog. Although it is also possible to send a dog to a training school, the owner must learn what the dog has learned and how to use and reinforce the techniques. Owners and dogs who attend class together have an opportunity to learn more about each other and how to work together under a trainer's guidance. Training is most effective if everyone who handles the dog takes part in the training to ensure consistent commands, methods, and enforcement. Classes also help socialize a dog to other people and dogs. Training classes are offered by many kennels, pet stores, and independent trainers.
Formal training in classes is not always available until the puppy has completed all its vaccinations around 4 months of age; however, some trainers offer puppy socialization classes in which puppies can enroll immediately after being placed in their permanent homes as long as disease risk is minimal and puppies have received initial vaccinations. In most cases, basic training classes accept only puppies who are at least 3 to 6 months old. It is however recommended to start training as soon as the puppy comes into your home. A better way than groupclasses is "In Home Dog Training", with companies who will have trainers coming to your home, you can start training as early as 8 weeks and set a great start to proper housebreaking procedures and building a good consistent start.
A puppy requires discipline, consistency, and the patience of its owner. Owners should take time to train their puppies and take steps to make their home safe. The puppy training phase is integral in raising a healthy and happy dog and keeping a safe and fun home environment.
Puppies need consistency more than anything else. A stable diet and clear expectations will help the puppy learn what it is expected. Dogs are expressive and may communicate needs by biting, whining, and getting fidgety. The owner's response may contribute to a healthy, obedient puppy. An important principle is that the best way to change a puppy's behavior is to modify one's own conduct. Giving a puppy toys that are similar to household items he likes to chew may facilitate easier puppy training.
An integral puppy training issue is house training. Various methods of housetraining will work although the key is to be consistent. With regularly enforced rules, litter box, crate, or paper training can be successful.

Is dog training the same as singing, dancing, art and even mathematics?
I feel that a "natural affinity" with dogs, getting in tune with them, understanding where they are coming from, being on the same page as them, is the same as having a flair of writing, a natural ability to sing or dance or paint or even doing complicated advanced mathematics. It is an inborn ability that you cannot learn in school and no amount of paper "certification" proves that you are good in your chosen field.
An example is, going for singing lessons. I have seen students who go for classes but when they pass with a certificate, they don't sing with feeling although they can probably sing in tune and in time. But mind you, art cannot actually be taught. If you are born tone death or you don't have a natural rhythm in your body, you won't be able to sing or dance no matter how many course you go for and that's the sad truth. And so, I feel it is the same with dog training. You either have it or you don't.
Actually it is. Good trainers have an unlearned but natural ability to read dogs and dog behavior. They have the analytical ability to reason out problems that occur in training and do it quite quickly. Sure some of this comes with experience but a lot of it is untrained but natural in an excellent trainer. Some excellent trainers appear to mind read dogs by noticing the subtle signals and body language that the dog uses to communicate. To watch these people in action is like listening to a very talented singer, a lovely flowing dancer, or a person quickly solving a difficult puzzle. They make it look so easy. Many well known dog trainers started out by training horses.
