A Bit and a Bite

Allowed Games

Training a dog the basics of obedience can be fun when complemented with games. Games not only develop the communication system right at the very beginning, but they pave the way to teach your dog how you expect him to behave.

Including games are a part of the socialization process. Healthy sports and activity are means to establish the framework for a healthy relationship between you and your pet. It is vital, however, to consider the quality of games you play with your dog. Remember that when you try to pass on messages through play to your dog, it is just like when you use games to pass on values, skills and structured thought to your child.

Game on!

Here is a handy guide to a few simple games you can play with your dog:

Follow the leader:

Well this game can be a test of your dog’s leadership qualities. To begin the game, you need at least three dogs and handlers. You need to arrange a lot of puppy obstacles and traffic cones in a particular sequence. Each handler should be given the chance to be a leader, and each puppy a chance to follow.

socer:

Dogs can make good soccer players, but don’t try it with too huge or too small a ball, otherwise your dog will have difficulty handling it. You can begin it by kicking the ball to your pet and when he gets the hang of it, try mixing things up!

Countryside Report:

This sport is for dogs as well as their owners. It contains various disciplines such as dale jumping, following a trail and obedience exercises. The owner also has to participate in at least the dale jumping. You will have to find yourself lots of empty space before you try this out. It is also important that your companion has mastered at least the basic obedience commands (sit, stay, come).

Hide and Seek:

Get in touch with your inner child and join the fun. You can play this just about anywhere, and you don’t need to invest in any new equipment. Again, your dog should have mastered the basic commands before you attempt this. First, let your dog sit while you run and hide. Make sure the location is safe for your puppy (for starters, stay away from the street). After you have hidden, call the dog once and let him find you on his own. Don’t forget to praise him and treat him after he has sniffed you out. Rewards can work wonders and are a key part of teaching through play.

There are just a few don’ts that you should remember: Never allow your dog to bite you, don’t mock fight and never engage in hunt-style chasing.

So when you and your puppy are sick and tired of school, head for the backyard. Not only will it teach your pet something, it will help your relationship no end.
