There are actually as many ways to rear a Boykin Spaniel puppy as there are to caring for a child. In fact, one method per family at least! But most of us agree that when it comes to children, many things are universal and undeniable. Here are three things that a great deal of individuals simply do not think of when it comes to raising their Boykin Spaniels, however. I can’t count how many times have I heard, “My Boykin Spaniel just won’t listen to me”, or “He simply will not behave!”
Boykin Spaniels don’t understand English until we train them.
The main thing all of us enjoy about Boykin Spaniel puppies the most is the way in which they live for us, the method they focus all they have on us, the method our lives end up being theirs. In the start, they study us to learn our body movement, our expressions and our language. Till we teach them the English language, it’s all they have. If we state, “Need to go out?” one day, “Need to go potty?” the next day, and, “Hafta pee?” the third day, if they DO find out what we want, it is because we have picked up the leash and moved toward the door with a delighted face! If you want to accelerate his training by three-fold, teach him YOUR language. Choose a command for EACH action and persevere. Tell all in your household to utilize the very same words and commands, and your Boykin Spaniel puppy will astonish you at how much faster he figures it out.
A young Boykin Spaniel puppy’s metabolism is racing along faster than we believe.
The more youthful your Boykin Spaniel is, the quicker he is growing, the more food and water he needs to fuel his metabolic process, and the more often he needs to go potty. Do not punish your puppy when he makes a house-breaking error. These are YOUR fault. The age of your Boykin Spaniel in weeks and his size establish how often he should go out. One time an hour is not too much for a large 6-week old puppy, especially if it is summer season. Boykin Spaniels enjoy the interesting smells outdoors, so there is no reason to not have him housebroken by 7-8 weeks old. Right after a nap, after he eats and after grooming are the essential times, and he will notify you. If he is gladly chewing a toy and gets up unexpectedly with his nose to the flooring, move quickly! And whenever he goes potty outside, praise him to high paradise! “What a great PUP!”, “GOOD go potty!” and so on. Boykin Spaniels like our happy faces, and they will do anything to get it.
Boykin Spaniels live for our expressions and body movement.
Due to this, the worst punishment you ever can provide your Boykin Spaniel is a grimace and to turn away from him. You can see his tail fall down and his face get so serious. He will figure out the lesson, I guarantee it. However his attention period is only 3-5 minutes, so do not scorn him any more. Love him up and give him your delighted face once again. Physical punishment is never necessary. Make use of consistent commands and caring appreciation and he will know what you want of him before you understand. He will end up being a master of your body movement and expressions in no time at all.
Naturally there are many aspects of training your Boykin Spaniel puppy well. Loving generosity works just as well for Boykin Spaniel puppies as it does with children, creating a happy, well-adjusted and loyal dog for life. These 3 crucial ideas, utilized consistently with self-confidence, will start him well on his way.
