You cannot hit your dog, as this could lead to serious behavioral issues. Other than that, there are still many things you can do to discipline your pup without getting too frustrated. For instance, verbal warnings and time outs can still be effective in shaping your dog's behavior. In addition, offering positive reinforcement such as treats and praise when your pup behaves well can also go a long way toward addressing misbehavior.

You should not hit your dog, as this can be detrimental to the relationship and harmful for your dog. Positive reinforcement is a better alternative to reprimanding your dog. Try to redirect his mischievous energy and provide positive cues that encourage desired behavior by rewarding him when he complies with your commands. Consistency in reinforcing positive behavior can go a long way in improving his manners.
