Congratulations! You’ve just brought home a new puppy. Now what? The first thing you should do is take your puppy to the vet for a checkup. After that, it’s time to start training your dog! Training your new pet is an important step in owning a well-behaved, friendly dog that can be trusted in public places and around other people and pets. The way you train your puppy can make all the difference between having an animal that obeys basic commands or one who misbehaves constantly unless its owner is constantly telling it what not to do.

Congratulations! You bought a puppy.
Congratulations, you’ve bought a puppy! This is an exciting time in your life. Your new dog will be part of your family for many years to come, and now that you’ve brought him home it’s time to start training him.
Dogs are like babies: they need lots of attention and training at every stage from young puppies all the way through adulthood. In fact, puppies aren’t just dogs with shorter legs—they require much more care than adult dogs do. This means that when choosing the right puppy for yourself, it’s important to pick one whose temperament fits well with yours and your lifestyle (for example, if you’re away from home for long stretches during the day).
Training your puppy is essential.
Training your puppy is essential. It involves teaching him what is expected of him and can help you avoid problems later on. You should take the time to train your puppy, as it helps both of you understand each other’s needs.
The first thing you need to know about training is that it’s a two-way street: teaching your puppy what’s expected of him isn’t just something that happens in one direction. If a dog owner wants their dog to sit or come when they call, they must show their pet as well—and if they don’t do any training at all, then no one will ever learn anything!
The first thing to consider when choosing a trainer is the credentials and references of the trainer.
When you are looking for a dog trainer, the first thing to consider is the credentials and references of your potential trainer. A good way to figure out if your potential trainer is qualified or not is by asking their previous clients what they liked about their experience with them.
It’s also helpful if you know what type of training methods they use and whether or not they have any certifications from accredited institutions in the field. This will help ensure that your dog gets exposure to all kinds of techniques, so that he doesn’t become allergic or over-sensitive to any one type of training method (like clicker training).
A good trainer will show you how to use positive reinforcement in training.
Positive reinforcement is a reward for good behavior, such as a treat or pat on the head. It should be given immediately after the good behavior. Negative reinforcement is a punishment for bad behavior, like spanking your dog if he pees on the carpet. Punishment should be given immediately after the bad behavior, so that he knows what he did wrong and will not do it again.
A good trainer will show you how to use positive reinforcement in training and how to communicate with your dog using body language and voice tone (see below).
You should also make sure that the techniques taught by the trainer will be effective for the breed of dog you have.
You should also make sure that the techniques taught by the trainer will be effective for the breed of dog you have. Some breeds are more difficult to train than others. Some breeds are more intelligent than others, and some breeds are more stubborn than others. Some dogs will do anything to please their owners, while others are independent and headstrong.
Some dogs learn quickly, while other dogs take longer to learn basic commands (sit, stay). Before you start training with a professional dog trainer ensure that they’ve worked with pets like yours before and have extensive experience with them in particular!
Make sure that you are comfortable with the way the trainer handles your dog.
As you are considering whether or not to hire a dog trainer, you should be sure that the trainer can handle your dog in a way that makes you feel comfortable.
It’s important for the trainer to be able to communicate with your dog in a way that keeps their attention and doesn’t distract them from learning. If they are able to successfully handle and command attention from your dog while training, then this is an indication of how well they will be able to work with him or her.
It’s also important that you feel comfortable with what you’re being asked to do as a dog owner during training sessions.
You’ll feel more comfortable with the trainer’s methods if you’re able to ask questions about them. You should be able to trust the trainer and feel safe asking questions, because if you don’t feel this way, it’s likely that your dog won’t either.
You should also be able to tell whether a trainer is trustworthy by observing how they interact with their own dogs. This will give you an idea of how they might treat yours in the future—and whether or not they’ll be effective at training it!
Don’t forget that your puppy wants to please you and he or she just needs direction from you.
You and your new puppy are going to have a blast together. But animals need boundaries, and that means learning what behaviors are acceptable and which ones aren’t.
A good dog trainer can help you establish a positive relationship with your pet. It’s important to stay positive, consistent (no mixed messages!) and patient as you teach your new pup basic commands like sit, down and stay. That way he or she will learn what is expected of them in every situation—and soon enough become the best behaved dog on the block!
Patience and consistency are also important during training so make sure they are qualities you want in a trainer.
As you can imagine, patience and consistency are two of the most important qualities to look for in a dog trainer. You want them to be patient with your puppy as they learn new things. And you want them to be consistent so your puppy will know what is expected from him or her every time. Consistency is also important because it helps your puppy learn to trust you!

Training your puppy is an important step in owning a well-behaved, friendly dog. The most effective way to do that is by using positive reinforcement techniques and making the training experience fun for both of you.
