Training your Dog for Desirable Behaviors

• The Right Way to Train Your Dog
  
  The basic obedience commands that every dog must know are – “Heel”, “No”, “Sit”, “Stay”, “Down” and “Off”. These six commands form the basis of every basic obedience class, and it is vital that you and your dog master these basic commands.
• Training Your Dog Not to Chase
  
  Dogs by nature are predatory animals, and all predatory animals share the motivation to chase fleeing objects. While this may be a natural instinct, it is not appropriate when those fleeing objects are joggers, bicyclists or the mailman.
• Teaching Proper Behavior
  
  Training your dog to behave well can save his life if he becomes separated from you. Dog behavior training is vital to such life and death issues as preventing aggression.
