How To
How to train your pet dog
A pet dog provides companionship and emotional support to its owner. It may protect its owner from predators and animals.
Pet owners must train their dog to do certain tasks, such as fetching objects, protecting against intruders, obeying orders, performing tricks, and guarding against theft.
The typical training period lasts from six months to two and a half years. During this time, the owner teaches the dog basic obedience skills, including how to sit, lie down, stay, come when called, walk on command, and roll over. The dog's owner will also teach it basic commands verbally and how to deal with its natural instincts.
In addition to teaching the dog these basic behaviors, the owner should teach the dog not to bite people or other animals and to respond appropriately to strangers and other unfamiliar situations.
