Train My Pets

Although you think your Havanese is perfect, not everybody else will. They also might not appreciate the adorable chewing and athletic prowess of leaping onto people. Other people, especially little children, might get hurt by your Havanese’s behavior. Of course, your Havanese is not trying to hurt anyone. But he can only communicate in Canine and not in human. It is your responsibility to teach your Havanese human communication with basic Havanese training.

It only takes a few minutes a day, every day – and a lot of patience – to train your Havanese. You can help your Havanese along by making sure your dog is well fed, gets regular exercise and doesn’t have any health problems that might interfere with training. This will help your Havanese focus his attentions on your and not get so easily distracted. Five minute sessions three times a day can do wonders, as well as following advice from dog training books or videos.
Observe your Havanese furry kid and see what really excites him or her. Is it a particular food treat? Is it going outside for a romp? It is a particular toy? Be patient in discovering what would be the ultimate reward for your Havanese in training.. It will be the use of this treat, activity or toy that will be your secret weapon in Havanese obedience training. You will save this treat, activity or toy ONLY for when your Havanese does what you want him or her to do.

Never beat your Havanese for being “stupid” or “difficult.” This will lead to confusion on the part of the dog and inflicts unnecessary suffering. How would you like to be pounded if you couldn’t told to do something you couldn’t understand by someone who did not speak your language? This is what is happening to your dog. They are trying to obey you, even though they are not native speakers of whatever language you speak.
And that’s basically how you keep going with Havanese obedience training. Use positive reinforcement – just ignore bad behavior or say “No”. You don’t want the dog to ever be scared of being near you. Keep the sessions short, and be patient. All dogs learn in their own time, just like with kids. If this is your first dog, then enrolling in basic obedience classes will help you almost as much as they will help the dog.

One of the best things you can do is buy a good dog training book. You can ask your dog trainer, dog owning friends, your puppy’s breeder or your vet for a good dog training book. You can always go back to the book when you encounter a new question at all hours of the day and night – something you can’t do with a dog trainer. You will find that Havanese training will be rewarding not only for your Havanese, but for yourself as well.

As one of the leading writers about Havanese training and the training of other small dogs and rare breeds dogs this author knows that training the owner is just as important as training the dog.. Through writing many articles on diverse subjects in the dog world, including dog training books a true love for the Havanese breed has grown.
