Training needs to be a positive and rewarding experience for both you and the Tibetan Spaniel. If you are not in the best mindset for training, do not even begin. Always reward your Tibetan Spaniel for obeying your commands to the letter! A reward is anything that your Tibetan Spaniel wants and is happy to work for. Snacks are an obvious reward but different prizes could be verbalized admiration and playthings. Many shorter sessions are demonstrated to be more effective than a single long one.

Each training opportunity is to be pleasant and confidence-building with rewards for a job well done.
