Was there ever a time you just wanted to leave your work and get some quiet time by yourself? How about it your own boss required you to enjoy a vacation, even planning it himself? I don?t know one person on earth who would say no to this. If you are one of them, be sure to leave your name and email address so resumes can be properly addressed.
Canines operate in a similar fashion. They need to find a secure place to nest in once in a while. It is a deeply primal instinct that goes back several decades, even centuries. A master?s responsibility is to lead them into things that we know are good for their well-being. This is an article that aims to do just that with puppy training tips on the often misunderstood but terribly useful crate training.
Crate training a puppy sounds like a really bad form of canine punishment you don't want to get involved in. Truth be known, it's actually helpful in animal training; specifically potty training. You see, as much as he is able to, dogs will not unload dog matter on his personal space. This means that a crate trained puppy will wait until he is released from the pen before he eliminates, therefore giving you something to work with in terms of scheduling his feeding and potty time. Make sure to use a crate that is comfortable but small enough for him not to use a part of it as a toilet.
Place the crate in a room with a lot of people. Don't push the puppy inside-- allow him to enter the crate himself. Put in some interesting things and toys. Let him feel comfortable inside the box and feed him there. This should be your dog's personal haven from the stress so make crate training an enjoyable and pleasant experience for him. Never use it to punish him.
After a while, he will begin to be comfortable inside. When you feel the time is right, close the crate while you are still in the room. Do not release him the moment he cries or becomes upset. This will tell the puppy that reacting violently will get him what he wants and believe me; no owner would ever want that. Unless he is in pain or wants to potty, wait for the cries to subside before opening the crate.
When the puppy is not panicking with being enclosed in the crate, leave the room for several minutes at a time. With his favorite toys and treats inside with him, he should be feeling comfortable and able to keep himself amused even without you being there constantly. You can leave him inside his crate but never for more than four hours at a time. Puppies have not fully mastered their bowel movements and having to eliminate in his space will upset him.
These are few puppy training tips that when followed, will do so much to increase your leisure time significantly. Crate training aids potty and sleeping habits without much hard work. Sounds good right? You also have the freedom to take longer trips and vacations without undue stress of worrying about your puppy. For times you need space you can leave him be. The dog will be happy in his own world and you in yours. When you are successful in crate training a puppy-- your former lifestyle will be as forgotten as a buried bone.
