Dog Training Advice For Training Your Best Friend



Recommended Answer:
First of all if you are committed and consistant to crate training and for that mater any other training it works very well, however if you are determined ad believe crate training doesn't work then it won't work because you don't want it to work and you don't wat to prove yourself wrong.

Toilet training, after waking, after eating and after play and possibly a few times in between ( like 1-2 hourly) you need to put your dog on a lead and take it outside to the spot where you want it to go, do this silently and without staring at the dog, wait for at least 15 minutes while she sniffs and hopefully goes, while she is going, put a word to it, like 'pee' or I use 'be clean' and praise her verbally quietly not excitedly and you do this every time within a week most dogs will go to the toilet ,on command every time, so you then don't need to always go out with them, just tell them to 'be clean', a great command which you have for life for toileting your dog anywhere you need.

One good trick is to get a large rock or stone, put it in your garden where you want her to go, mix water 75% and bleach 25% and pour it over the stone/rock........this replicates another dogs urine because of the ammonia in the bleach, so she will be willing to sniff and will want to pee on it/near it......every month or so, pour a new mixture over the stone/rock this will keep it clean and re new the smell for her.

I have no idea about free online training, but this is what I use, whatever you do, stick to it, don't swop and change methods and just to say there are o instantfix methods it takes hard work it takes committment.........that is what being a dog owner is.

Electronic Dog Training Collars


  • Crate training a dog ALWAYS works unless you aren't doing it correctly. It's the fastest and easiest way to housebreak a dog. I have had success with puppies and adult dogs alike.

    Follow the steps and you will succeed.

    Hitting a dog doesn't teach them anything except that you are a mean person to be around. They learn by being shown what you want from them. Praise them outside when they go. Don't leave them unsupervised in the house at all. If you catch them, clap loudly to distract them and take them straight outside. Stay with them until they go. Praise and treats for going. It's very, very simple with the crate.

  • Lala,

    In the wild, the animal Kingdom is a very simple and easy place to learn. All animals teach their young by using pain. I know it sounds barbaric but it does work. Think about it what does a lioness do if one of her cubs is doing something it is not supposed to do? She puts the cub in it's place with a nip or a small bite. So the next time your dog goes on the floor, whether it's pee or poo, force her head down and rub her nose in it, then smack her on the butt a couple while speaking in a firm voice saying "no" a few times and literally throw her out the door. Let her land and roll a few feet. this will get her attention when she finds out that it is painful if she goes in the house.

    This will also take a few times at doing but it does work. I have trained many animals and dogs, horses, cats, large birds, and amphibians. only had one turtle I couldn't train to go in a certain place. Very hard to train amphibians...lol.

    I hope this helps,

  • when i caught them i told them bad very sternly and made them smell it not stick their nose in it and when they start to pull away (usually 5 seconds later i take them to the spot where i want them to do it and it worked about after catching them about seven times its a good method...also while ur making um smell it keep saying bad when in desired spot after their finisshed praise them its a lot faster than it seems at least for me it is...good luck

  • Crate training DOES work. Just depends how you do it. It also depends on the age of the dog, and his feeding schedule.
