Practice makes Perfect. Make sure if you are going to train your dog then practice. Dont get mad...Get glad!

Keep your dogs nails trimmed so that they don't cause problems (curling) - IceyBlueSibes

Barrett · 11-02-2004, 03:46 PM

Use positive reinforcement to train your dog, never use physical punishment. Prevention of bad behavior is a lot easier than re-training.

LabLuver22 · 11-02-2004, 03:54 PM

Never let your dog roam free around the neighborhood. He/she should be in a fenced yard or on a leash at all times when outside the house.

NEVER leave your dog chained while in a fence the dog could jump over it and hang itself.

IceyBlueSibes · 11-02-2004, 06:19 PM

Don't overfeed your dog because your poochie may become over weight and then can lead to other serious health problems. - IceyBlueSibes

Barrett · 11-02-2004, 06:23 PM

Make sure your dog is warm and dry this winter. Dogs want to be in the house with their pack if possible.
