Dogs loves to play and is always ready, particularly with kids. Introduce your dog to children early, as this will bond dog and child and prevent jealousy. You will find the dog will be more protective towards that child.
Discipline your dog!
It’s a matter of thinking and working a step ahead of your dog. Again, you should do it with love and firmness. Moreover, a dog that is well behaved today may not remain so forever. A dog’s behavior constantly changes; so make the discipline constant.
Train your dog!
A trained dog will listen and can safely be allowed freedom more than an untrained one. It is important to know that a disciplined dog is more confident is a wonderful smart, soulful and people-oriented companion. On the other hand, a poorly trained dog can be a loud and destructive irritation around the house, becoming more of a burden on you rather than bliss.
Just like human beings, dogs are best taught young! It’s much easier to teach it not to pull on the leash when it is a small puppy than to try to educate it when it’s too old. Just like I did with my dog, begin the training somewhere that is familiar to your dog, where there is minimum distraction.
Hold on!
Remember socialization is also an important part of the training because you don’t want to end up with a fearful or aggressive dog. When you understand a dog’s intelligence and stubbornness, you’ll be able to handle it well, and avoid problems while disciplining and training them.
Employ whatever it takes to train your dog in the most fun manner possible. Try to use proven tactics to make your Rottweiler listen to you more. Try to always play the puppy’s level so that when it grows up it doesn’t get used to jump and initiate play. For instance, play games at their own (close to the ground) level. Use its “play training” time as the dog’s motivation while training them.
I know these pieces of advice may sound tiresome and hectic to follow, but believe me, it’s not only important to abide by the general guideline than to be sorry later on.
Happy training!
