Teaching your dog or puppy basic obedience commands can be a tricky feat, but the reward of a happy, healthy pet makes it well worth the time and effort it takes to train a dog. Learning how to stay, sit, and heel are important for both you and your dogs happiness and safety. There are many variations and theories on how to train a dog, but most professional dog trainers will tell you to reward good behavior and negatively reinforce bad behavior. Of course this can be more difficult than it sounds. Many people may end up unknowingly enforcing the bad behavior instead of the good, but with a little effort and knowledge of how a dog learns, even you can teach your dog basic obedience commands.

Often times a dog will not be aware of their boundaries, or at least their boundaries in relation to their owner. In this free video series, a dog trainer will teach you how to train a dog to stay. The stay command is used when a pet owner wants their dog to remain immobile or to resist from entering a specific area. You'll learn how and when to use the stay command, how to use posture to get a dog's attention, and how to bait a dog when training it to stay. With a little practice, routine, and maturity, you'll eventually be able to get your dog to stay from a distance, or when they simply hear your voice!
