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 protect against predators and other animals.
Pet owners must train their dog to do certain tasks, such as fetching objects, protecting against intruders, obeying orders, performing tricks, and guarding against theft.
The training period typically lasts between six and 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 dog's owner will also teach it basic commands verbally and how to deal with its natural instincts.
This should include teaching the dog basic behavior and how to handle strangers.
