how do you tame a 3 month old dog to be obedient, respective and smart?

Answer 1

With patience and persistance. Remember, he is still a young puppy and wants to play constantly (naturally) so try and make his training fun, enjoyable and rewarding.

Answer 2

3 months is not too early.....first of all, without adequate one on one time with the dog you are going to have a hard time. Make sure you are around alot. Then keep the dog with you at all times possible. If you are in the living room, the dog stays in the living room. While you are in the living room, you need one eye on the TV and one eye on the dog. The second the dog does something wrong (eat a shoe etc.) you need to say no in a firm voice. The dog might look at you and start chewing on the shoe again. Repeat the firm no. Repeat until the dog does not chew on the shoe.


You will be saying no alot, but the frequency will decline. do not do things like rubbing the dogs nose in the place where he took a piss. You will be able to tell when the dog needs to go pee, when you see that look pick the dog up and take the dog to the proper pee area.

Anyway, the key is immediate correction and keep the dog in sight to do this

prizes/treats should be used too but those are better for the teaching of commands...sit, come, stay etc. with commands start real slow....and dont give the dog too many treats, trust me if you do that you will have a dog that has you by the leash

Answer 3

It will take several months for a 3 month old dog to control its excited behaviour! A 3 month old dog is really only a 12 week old puppy - thats a baby!!

Give your puppy attention when it is calm and ignore it when it is hyper. Reward good behaviour with treats and attention and distract the puppy away from bad behaviour to avoid it developing bad habits.

Teach it tricks like sit, wait, down etc by using a food treat and praise to help it understand what you mean. As soon as it does something right - reward with the treat and lots of praise and it will want to do it right again.

Earn your puppy's respect by being fair, kind and firm. It will want to please you and be with you and it will grow up into an obedient, respectful and smart dog you can be proud of!

First, you should wait a bit more, until he stops being a puppy. Then you can try teaching him simple things, by ordering something to him, and giving him a prize. The way you should do it is this, give the order, wait for the response, if it is similar to what you asked for say good or well done, and then give him the prize. Start by saying good or well done and then giving him a prize, so he can associate the two things. Then issue the order, wait for the response, say good or well done if it was a satisfactory answer, and then give the prize. If you have patience, you will be needing less and less prizes, but remember to always say good or well done. This is a way of conditioning your dog operatively, like Pavlov's dogs. He rang a bell and then gave them food, and soon when de dogs heard the bell they salivated eventhough they didn't see any food. If your dog doesn't obey the order give him a negative punishment, don't pay attention to him in a while, as a form of punishment.
Have patience, and good luck!

Answer 5

It happens over time, at 3months your dog is still a puppy and as long as you train your dog from day one, over time your dog will become obediant, respective and smart. It may be an idea to join a training class with your puppy.

Answer 6

You need to start now. I have been raising Rotties. for ten years. Always use postive renforcement, start with sit then give a snack then do stay, walk away if they break start all over. When they bite or chew say in a gruff voice no-no. They are much like childern only with sharper teeth. go to the local library get a book on the breed of your dog and training I spent a lot of money on training on my first one.

Answer 7

that's on no account ok, even whether that's random. At 3 months previous, he's exploring his international, and figuring out the place he stands in the pecking order. he's likewise a pup, so a number of this may well be play. even with the undeniable fact that, he desires to appreciate that it is not the remarkable thank you to play. look into your interior sight kennels, parks, faculties, or shelters for pup kindergarten training. those are large for procuring the dogs socialized, initiate training the common instructions, and likewise artwork by consumer-friendly pup themes. meanwhile, he bites, even in play, supply a noisy yelp and walk away. overlook approximately him. he will learn that as quickly as he bites, his friends all depart him and he's on my own. Do an identical with the growl - merely walk out of the room. whilst he's enjoying actual, together with his very own toys, then play with him.

Answer 8

you don't tame it you train it....I think that training should start the day the dog comes in to your home and heart. research your breed so that you understand what the breed was meant to do and how it will best respond then you research training methods and find the one best suited. be patient and consistent and don't expect this to be a quick deal. Our dogs are 2,3 & 10 and we are training every day

Answer 9

You purchase a copy of Dr. Ian Dunbars book "After You Get Your Puppy" (Amazon has it, around $14.00). It's a little paperback that is the best investment in training you will every make. You'll have the best trained puppy anywhere! :)

Answer 10

With praise & not punishment, also with patience & time. It doesn't happen straight away & you can only encourage anything to do something you want to do if they get something in return. Don't give attention or react to anything until your dog sits or lies quietly & be persistent.
