How To
How to train a dog as a pet
A pet dog is an animal companion who provides companionship and emotional support for its owner. It can also protect you from predators or other animals.
Dog owners should train their pet to be able to retrieve items, guard against intruders and obey orders.
The training period typically lasts between six and two years. The owner teaches the dog basic obedience skills such as how to sit, lay down, stay, come on command, roll over, and walk on command. The owner also teaches the dog how to use basic commands and to respect the dog's natural instincts.
Apart from teaching the basic behaviors to the dog, the owner should teach it to not bite other animals or people and to be respectful of strangers.
