How To
How to train a pet dog
A pet dog, or companion animal, is one that offers companionship and emotional support to its owners. It can also protect you from predators or other animals.
A pet dog must be trained by its owners to perform certain tasks such as fetching items, guarding against intruders, obeying commands, and performing tricks.
The average training period lasts six to two 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 owner also trains the dog to obey simple verbal commands and learns how to handle the dog's natural instincts.
These basic behaviors should be taught to the dog by the owner. They should also teach the dog how to react to strangers or unfamiliar situations.
