Training your pet
Every dog owner has a responsibility to train his pet to be well behaved and disciplined member of the community
Training your puppy to come, sit, lie down and stay down are most important both for the safety of your dog and for harmonious relations with family, friends and outside the home. A disobedient uncontrollable dog is a nuisance and can be a menace for you and your family
Generally professional training should be started around 4 to 5 months of your pet’s age. But your puppy can be trained from the first month of age onwards

Teaching his name
First teach your puppy his name by using it frequently. He will soon understand that when you or any one else says his name your mean him. The dog’s name should be of double sounding in nature “Tiger” “Rambo” and so on

Collar and Leash:
Get your puppy accustomed to collar and leash. Start with a narrow, soft collar at first and allow it wear constantly. Attach a light lead and allow it to drag for few days. Then by gently holding it walk along the pup so that it can’t feel the lead too much

Choke Chain:
During training, your pup should wear a correctly positioned choke chain (Choker of choke chain). With this a short, quick tug with the lead will teach him that he is doing wrong

Sit:
“Sit” can sometimes be taught using a non-physical method. Hold some biscuits in the hand and show it to him. The pup will be interested in the hand and will watch it. Move the hand back over the pups head. While it is watching the hand. This act probably cause him to sit. When he does so, say sit. If the pup is not responding to it, follow physical methods. Attach the lead to the pup’s collar and use it to keep him close. Push down gently in the dogs hind quarters and pull up slightly on the lead, saying “Sit”. In both the methods the final step is to practice the puppy when he does it
