Top Ten Tips For Training Your Toy Bulldog

We all imagine training the perfect Toy Bulldog, a pet that’s a CGC or canine good citizen and is well mannered and dependable at all times. Well dreams really do come true when the instruction is done with care and focus. Remember pups learn from day one and need to be informed what is correct, what is not, and correct socialization.
Puppies are just like young children, they really need regular guidance and teaching. Training a pup needn’t be a chore, all you want to consider are a few simple principles:

Top Ten Tips For Training Your Toy Bulldog

  1. Til your pup learns, you must keep an eye on him at all times. When you can’t then you will need to crate him. Develop a routine for the pup, that will help her to calm down very quickly. The schedule has to consist of things such as hourly potty visits, eating times, rest periods, strolls, play time, exercise, etc. A pup that has a hectic day has no time for being bored and get into mischief.
  2. Teach the pup to appreciate you. Toy Bulldogs stay in packs and naturally comply with a leader. When you establish your leadership in no uncertain terms then training will end up being easy as the pup will follow orders at all times and not defy your authority.
  3. Utilize exclusively encouraging training tactics. Do not scream at, strike, or punish your Toy Bulldog. It is not only harsh but can bring about behavioral issues. Use of electrical shocks, prong collars, sprays, et cetera may possibly hurt the animal.
  4. Teach the pup “nothing in this life is free.” This is a mantra that is widely accepted as a valuable teaching method. As you execute this, the pup will be taught that to get anything like affection, a stroll, or reward, he has to act properly.
  5. Explain the meaning of “No,” from the first day. Do not embrace actions such as jumping, mouthing, tug-o-war, barking, or escaping open gates and doorways. Commend good behavior and just ignore or leave when there is bad behavior. The pup will certainly realize that if he is mischievous he will lose his companion/playmate.
  6. To fix a habit you will need to witness the Toy Bulldog in the process and startle her by shaking a jar of stones. When you have done this help him adjust his behavior and immediately give him a snack and appreciation. Toy Bulldogs do not recollect what took place previously so rebuking him after an event is useless.
  7. Always call/use his name favorably. Never say “Bad TOM,” or “No Tom,” this will induce mental confusion and the Toy Bulldog will believe that if you call his name then it is for something negative. The pup should correlate his name with happy events like hugs, petting, walks, treats, and such. If this occurs he will respond happily whenever you call out his name.
  8. Create a coaching regimen that is short and sweet, say 10 minutes thrice a day. Prolonged repeated sessions can be dull and the Toy Bulldog will lose interest in learning. Make learning entertaining and use trick training sessions to teach commands like sit, down, come et cetera.
  9. Connect with the Toy Bulldog and both of you are going to love your sessions. The pup should look forward to spending quality time with you and not steer clear of you by running away or hiding. Be sure to socialize the doggy early on. Socialization is one of the most critical teachings. The Toy Bulldog will need to learn to coexist with various other animals, people, sounds, vehicles, and other activities. And so, gradually introduce the puppy dog when he is small to day-to-day endeavors and sounds. Take him to the mall/ playground, introduce him to children and other pets, and make him unfrightened of the vacuum cleaner and garden hose.
  10. Understand everything about house training, leash walking, house breaking, along with food training. These are rudimentary lessons that every Toy Bulldog puppy has to learn. Learn about all the habits in addition to qualities of the breed. This will give you useful insights on how to effectively instruct the puppy dog.

As a Toy Bulldog owner you have several options. You could very well decide to train the Toy Bulldog on your own or enlist at a professional training school. Training a Toy Bulldog has several stages: kindergarten, behavior training, doggy sports, presenting and conformation, and other elements like therapy dogs, hearing dogs, and more. What level you choose to teach is dependent on you as well as the learning abilities of your Toy Bulldog. As you realize, various dogs, like people, have different talents. Choose well and both you and your Toy Bulldog pup will have enjoyable times together.
