Where your dogs are your best friends, they can also get ruined and harsh in public and friends when they are not properly trained. Therefore, it is always recommended to train your dog with some professional dog pulls on leash trainer if you are not that much eligible to train your dog. Dog obedience training requires you to cover a number of aspects. This article will discuss some important factors which should be kept in mind while training your dog and giving him obedience lectures. At first place, you should understand the fact that dogs are equally sensitive like your family, friends and relatives. Therefore, you should have a very friendly behavior with your dog.  
  
Dogs live very much in the 'now', they react to the 'now', yes, they carry past experiences and baggage similar to us, however, their REactions are in the 'now'. That's why does my dog bark at other dogs you can't expect them to know that, she's a really good pack leader sometimes but, has bad days and isn't so good on other days... they just don't understand this concept of inconsistency, they will simply give you the reaction you deserve or warrant in any given moment. Like us, they do carry triggers created in the past, but, and it's a big BUT, unlike us, their reactions can very much be controlled by the way their pack leader reacts in the 'now'.  
  
While keeping your dog on a leash, provide a meeting with another canine. Do this in a place that your dog is not familiar with. Some dogs get territorial when they are in a familiar area and might feel threatened by the other animal.  
  
Now, this doesn't require any kind of physical abuse, such as hitting, but it does require the knowledge of how to use your voice to get your dog to respond to you and respect you. This means becoming the pack leader to your dog. Some people know how to apply these techniques, while others could use some help. The good news is that you can begin easy dog obedience training that doesn't feel like work for you or your dog and your whole family can get involved in the fun.  
  
It's important to remember that the dogs are in a stressful situation, so don't assume that a dog's initial shyness means it won't come around to you in time. On the other hand, pay close attention to signs that the dog may have some deeply rooted emotional problems, like aggression, fear, or anxiety. Try to find a dog that seems even-tempered and balanced. Avoid one that is extremely shy or introverted or that is highly reactive or startles easily.  
  
Over time, you will progress to getting him to DO things, in order to drive you to give him treats. A dog can be trained without ever having to be touched! Simply wait for a behaviour to be offered, perhaps a play-bow or a Sit, or eventually a bump of your treat-filled hand with his nose. Then say "YES!" enthusiastically the instant it happens (or use a clicker to mark it) and toss a great treat...or a piece of his dinner. You can then pair a command to the action, and start to ask the dog to perform it in order to get the treat. I've had rescue reactive dogs I couldn't walk up and touch, who would Sit, Gimme Five, or otherwise interact with me in order to solicit a treat. This is *two way communication*, and it's important. Even coming up close to ask for food can be a triumph for a fearful dog.  
  
This "domination ritual" will solidify you as your dog's pack leader and let your dog know that you're the boss. That way, instead of jumping up on you or other people, your dog will know "No" when it hears the word.  
  
Raising your pet and teaching him to be a well-behaved dog can be one of the toughest challenges you will ever face. You want this animal to be a part of your family, but many times, you might find that your pet will have a different personality than you thought it would. Since your dog cannot talk to you, it's up to you to try and decode his body language and behavior to find out what he is saying, but if you don't know how to do this, you could just be chasing your tail, so to speak.  
  
The scene in a dog obedience school is just like life. In life there is a lot of noise, so much things going on, etc. In these classrooms there is a lot of noise to show them that they must learn no matter what the scenario is. It really teaches them to concentrate fully, and since they have been taught all aspects of obedience in this type of situation then they will definitely become well trained.  
  
Dog obedience training could be easy when you will follow these easy yet effective ways. But then again, this is not an activity that your dog is the only player because this should be you and your dog. It takes love, respect and passion for you to be successful in this dog obedience training.
