Here are some helpful tips that might help you out:
- Try to keep commands one or two-syllable words - which is easiest for them to identify.
- Keep training sessions short - around 5 minutes.
- Always end on a high note - if the 5 minutes are almost up, and he is doing well, stop then. Try not to wait until he is not interested anymore. He will learn the trick much easier if his training session ends when he is doing something well.
Most of these tricks and commands require several training sessions. Some dogs and puppies can grasp the idea in their first 5-minute training session, but don't expect it to do it extremely well.
