Pug Education – Why You Have To Start Coaching Your Pug Right From Day One

[ 0 ] August 16, 2010 |

You go to the pet store and you fall madly in love with that large wrinkly face and the next thing you know, you are the proud owner of a new Pug puppy.  Something that you have to know, particularly in those early days, is that the moment you bring that puppy home, you are training them in the right way to act in the future.  With pug training, it is imperative to be trained from the very start of your days as a Pug owner. 

When you look at how much a kid learns in the initial few years of their life, it far outweighs the quantity of things they learn in the latter years.  A pug puppydog is the same way, the first few months of their life are similar to the initial few years of a child’s life and anything they learn now is going to be embedded in their mind as something that they are permitted to do. 

If your Pug puppy jumps up on the coach, will you discipline him and let him know to get down or are you going to pet his cute small head and tell him how charming he is.  Now consider what takes place when he’s a full grown dog and he does that, you are potentially going to be upset and scream at him.  Well don’t scream at the dog, go find a mirror and yell at yourself because you’re the one that promoted that behavior when he was a puppy dog. 

We often find humor in the things that both kids and dogs do when they’re puppies and babies and then we get upset when they are doing similar things one or two years later.  It isn’t their fault, you permitted this behavior and now you’re going to fix it.  Knowing when to correct behavior is a sizeable part of pug training

When your Pug puppy grabs your shoes and starts gnawing on them, ask yourself one tiny query, am I going to find that funny in seven years when he’s still doing it?  If you are like most of the people, the solution to that query is going to be a sound NO so address it now and you will not have to fret about it in the future because the dog will know it is not allowable. 

It is a little tricky to train your Pug pup from the first day, but you’ve got to resist the pitfalls of falling for that captivating face.  They’re animals and they have to be trained.  The will only do what you permit them to do or get away with so be sure you get the correct behavior instilled from day one and you will have a great pet!
