  There are many different things a dog can be trained to do. Some dogs are trained to protect, some to hunt, work, or just for pleasure. No matter what the reason may be, dogs just want to make humans happy. That desire makes them a desirable pet. This article can help make your dog training efforts easier for your dog and you.
  
  When training your dog never punish him; doing so will only make him be resistant to any further training. Your training efforts should be to prevent bad behavior. Teach your dog what constitutes inappropriate behavior, and what is an acceptable behavior. Training is about building your pet up, not breaking him down.
  
  It is best to guide your dog to the correct behavior, rather than punish bad behavior. Instead, focus on preventing unwanted behavior. If your dog misbehaves, you should try to demonstrate the preferred action. Training is about teaching your dog, and building a good relationship with him.
  
  If at all possible, dog training should really begin as a puppy. Getting an early jump on training can have many numerous positive effects. If you start training your dog when he is young, he will be almost as well-behaved as a child.
  
  Never try to train a dog while you're short on patience. If you've had a bad day or are unusually short-tempered for some other reason today, it's better to put off training until another day. Your dogs will respond to patience and will lose interest if they feel you are getting frustrated.
  
  Take small steps when crate training your dog. As soon as they start to feel comfortable in the crate when the door is open, try closing the gate and have them eat inside. Use small increments of time, and build them up as your puppy or dog becomes more relaxed with the process. If they become upset, you are moving too fast.
  
  Dogs have the uncanny ability to have single-minded focus when something catches their attention. After you repeat these cues enough, your dog will learn to focus on you, primarily, as he or she waits for signals.
  
  It is wise for all family members to be involved when it comes to training a new puppy or dog. Even if there is only one person who trains the dog every day, it is advisable that the entire family take an active role so the house rules are constantly being enforced.
  
  Do not allow your pet to become complacent in his training. Establish a clear set of rules and stick with it at all times. Often dog owners will stop enforcing the rules that their dog learned in their training courses. However, pets and humans share similar habit systems. For this reason, it is especially important to hold your dog to a strict disciplinary system.
  
  Well-trained dogs make happy dogs, and owners are usually pretty happy as well. Use the advice you've read to start training your dog properly.
