- You need more info - what age/breed is the dog?
I'll assume it's a puppy. Go to Amazon or your bookstore and get this book: Before and After getting your puppy by Ian Dunbar. An excellent book for early training and he lays out a whole plan. Get this book, you won't regret it. Caveat is, take a few things he says with a grain of salt - some are simply impractical, but the vast majority will help you A LOT!
Website: Youtube is loaded with training videos for specific commands, e.g. sit, down, stay, fetch, no jumping, leash-walking etc.
Finally, there is no substitute for obedience classes with a good trainer. They teach you how to teach your dog, + you can work with your dog with lots of distractions and play. Most are around $200 for 7 or so sessions, which might seem like a lot upfront, but believe me over the long haul is nothing. I see people in park all the time with dog problems and I ask them if they've tried obedience classes - most say no. So they saved in the short term, but paid the price eventually. Take the time to find a reputable trainer and it'll be a great investment, guaranteed. - try Amazon
