1. Start training your puppy with basic commands while they are still young, to lay down the foundation for great discipline.
2. Be patient and consistent when training your pet. Show the same command repeated times will help your pet understand what you expect from them. 
3. Use positive reinforcement, giving praise and treats when they perform commands correctly
4. Use treats as rewards whenever possible but only small treats that won't affect their health or dental wellbeing
5 Reward yourself too - successes with dogs often feel a strong sense of achievement and happiness when things go right

Here are some tips for training a dog: 
1. Use food and treats as rewards for desired behavior. 
2. Start by teaching one command at a time, then combine them together as the dog understands each step more clearly. 
3. Avoid using too much negativity to correct unwanted behavior such as scolding or yelling, and use positive reinforcement to reward desired behavior instead - praising, playing a game or treating with food can all be effective methods.  
4. Set realistic expectations and always keep an open mind – don’t give up too easily if your pup is having an off day!
